    but it won’t drive society forward like technological progress under capitalism

    Why didn't the free market provide the space program when the USSR beat America into space? Also why did the USSR continue to hold nearly every accolade for being the first in space exploration and pushing the envelope of aerospace technology?

      They're liberals they don't know any of that. The world began in 2003 2008 2016 2019 2022.

      I agree that the USSR won the space race if we're counting pure number of achievements, but it's a bad argument to make because they're no longer around to defend it. Similarly to how Apple is not the first to do jack shit that pushes technology, they're very good at marketing their features as higher quality and innovative to the point that people either 1.) believe Apple did everything first or 2.) Apple didn't do it first, but they did it better than the ones who did it first
