Are we pursuing colonizing planets or building space habitats in any serious way?

We all know what NASA research is really for.

Every industry exploits the working class under capitalism.

Are we colonizing planets or building habitats in space right now or any time in the perceivable future, though? No, so beyond a fun thought experiment or sci-fi material, it's not an idea worth giving any serious thought towards.

Why would people want to focus more on things we can actually do right now and would improve our lives instead of completely unfeasible pipe dreams? I don't understand.

Sunrises on other planets are not a reality for anyone on Earth. The existence of trans people is.

What doesn't match reality? Kamala bloviated against Iran, calling them America's greatest adversary. She's affirmed her support for the genocidal apartheid state of Israel many times. She thanked Dick Cheney for his service to the country, which includes two illegal wars that killed millions, in case you don't remember.

Trump at least supports discussion with Russia, which is the right move. Absurd that a clown like him is the only one to suggest it.

you can cast a vote for the candidate most likely to start World War III

Yes, Kamala the warmonger who explicitly supports arming Israel and wants to escalate against Iran and Russia. She also loves Cheney the murdering war criminal, which tells you how she really feels. Trump has at least stumbled upon the correct policy regarding Russia.

Jill Stein, who is on the take from both the Russians and the GOP

I guess liberals are still on the Russiagate bullshit jagoff

Maybe the thing that pissed me off the most about capitalism's lies is how they promised us work would change (hexbear.net)

Automation would increase productivity and replace workers in manual jobs, so we wouldn't have to work as much.

Here we are in 2024 and we're still working at least eight hours a day. We're actually afraid of automation because it'll take away our opportunity to work eight hours a day so we don't starve.

Productivity has also increased exponentially (note: may not actually be exponential, just using the word as a figure of speech, but a math nerd can correct my use of scale here if they want), but has the average worker benefitted as much as they should have? Of course not porky-happy

The Finnish word also translates to ”work giver”, and it's probably a direct borrowing from Swedish.

Not as bad as the Finnish word for landlord translating to ”rent giver”, though.
