#Rich people been treatin us like Chip Pemberton for hundreds of years and then get all scared when EatTheRich acts up in 5 years

I don’t care about any of this babble… wait til billionaires spend $400 million on research and beta tests to go live on Mars for $100 grand and realize how much they paid to die in a bunch of red space dunes eating terraformed lettuce for their last meal on death row. Once you’re like a year away from Earth no return, hope it was worth it. Lack of societal empathy??? Rich people want to literally abandon an overpopulated, financially doomed planet they fucked up by hoarding too much money instead of helping rework society into a functional, well-balanced system. I have ZERO interest in their survival if they can’t give away their wealth and just live happily with no complaints on 5-10 million dollars not working for the rest of their lives. You’re just a selfish soulless succubus if you’re doing nothing to help the entire population with billions of dollars at your disposal. Most of the world population in poverty is making 3k/yr. They live places with no running water, sacks of rice, and mix that with whatever meat they hunt. And you wanna complain about not having a billion instead of a million? I can’t even pay attention to your existence anymore. There is absolutely no way you’re going to realistically colonize Mars and set up shop there in a decade. It doesn’t naturally sustain human life, anything you infect the planet with will have huge repercussions on its ecosystem, and sending humanity there will change the physical weight of the entire planet and fuck up the gravitational fields between all of the planets and probably kill both planet’s life forms when you shift either too far away or too close to the sun. So good luck with that.

this is probably the best take I’ve heard so far on the debate of people being told that they aren’t having enough ‘compassion’ for billionaires making bad decisions and paying the obvious consequences for it
