debt bondage IN SPAAAACE!

Post by Fuzzy Necromancer »

Hey, remember Indentured Servitude? The thing people bring up as examples of slavery and explotation done to white people when they're struggling in an argument about race?

Elon Musk thinks he's had a brilliant new idea about how to get more people on Mars.

I don't care if the long-term survival of our species will eventually depend on making sure all our eggs aren't in one planetary basket. If Elon Musk saves humanity, then we as a species don't deserve to survive.

In a shocking reveal, a man broke from wealth into insane wealth gained through brutal colonialism wants to be in charge of his own brutal colonialism, BUT IN SPACE.

This way he won't have to hope for a coup in Bolivia, he can just order the anti-worker violence himself.
