Jesus, what's up with the bad faith discussion, I literally fucking said that.
NASA is an extension of the MIC, it's funded so that we can extend to space dominance, any funding secured for NASA is because we've managed to sneak something not directly harming the global poor into getting part of the military budget, as long as they develop technology that can be used to harm the global poor.
It's ultimately a waste to do that along with all the other MIC shit we do. A NASA independent from the incentive of our war machine would be good, and a goal, but isn't what our NASA is.
So at the moment we have all of these pressing societal issues where people are freezing to death in their homes, as we send metal into space to find water on Mars, for some reason, as if that helps someone.
You can't be extremely bad faith and then accuse everyone else of bad faith. I mean, you can, it's what you're doing, but it sucks and you should stop.
Yeah, that's how allocation of funds works. Where we put a trillion into the MIC, we don't put that money into other programs.

Turn it into a strawman again I guess, fuck off
