The pettyness of all this shit is what's really shocking...

[–] Zer0_F0x@lemmy.world 23 points 6 days ago

I'm not shocked at all. They literally said exactly what they were going to do and now they are doing it.

Learn to expect the most stupid and evil outcome of any situation from now on and preemptively fight to secure what you deem important in whatever way you can.

Thank you sir. Duely downloaded and replicated for further distribution.

All of them. Afraid of giving anyone an equal playing field, straight afraid of women. Hold everyone down, insecure little men.

NASA is going down the drain under the new regime. If you're interested in space exploration, shift your gaze over to the ESA or CNSA.

What will happen to the Artemis program? :(

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Same thing that was always going to happen to it: It's not gonna fly. It's been canceled or clean sheet restarted at least once by every administration since inception, and frankly that rope has been pretty thoroughly pissed up.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Gods dammit, and after Artemis I was so succesful! I was looking forward to Artemis II... And seeing humans once again on the moon in my lifetime.

I won't get it. Mars is, resource poor. Don't get me wrong; having humanity set foot on another planet would be an amazing achievement, but... Since everything is so profit-driven, why not support a return to the moon!?

There's potentially Helium 3 up there. And the moon has a bunch of surface-minerals.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 5 days ago

The Artemis program never had any legs. The entire thing was being done in the most stupid way possible simply so that NASA could use SLS, a rocket that was completely incapable of actually fulfilling it stated mission. It was like the Apollo missions but without the lander.

Soon they will just be pushing women down stairs just for fun. Such MAGAts.

[–] Erasmus@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Naw that might cause miscarriages, can’t be having that!

[–] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I actually think that's their preferred method of abortion. That way they can really get out all the anger in one go.

[–] Ronno@feddit.nl 28 points 6 days ago (4 children)

I'm curious: the USA wants to dominate the final frontier, how will they ensure a civilization can thrive without woman in those new settlements?

Anyways, the idea is horrific and stupid, let's hope the US implodes.

With bottling Embryos like in Brave New World probably. That sounds about weird enough for Musk and his fellow band of shitheads

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Musk doesn't even have sex physically. Almost all his kids were made by surgically impregnating the women coerced into having his kids.

[–] ComfortableRaspberry@feddit.org 7 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

At least not to reproduce. Afaik he once said that he prefers IVF because it allows the parents to have influence on some of the steps. His daughter recently claimed that Musk wants to decide over his offsprings sex through selective IVF.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 7 points 6 days ago

So the guy concerned with the natural order of things disdain the natural order...

[–] Prior_Industry@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Imagine a clone colony of Trump's, Musks and Hegseaths. Can't imagine they would last long.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (4 children)

The far right morons and the cowards enabling them are fucking things up for its own sake. They're not thinking ahead. They're not actually even thinking, they're just reacting to imaginary shit.

They aren't the USA, they're the parasites the USA is infected with.

[–] 0x0@programming.dev 2 points 6 days ago

they’re the parasites

They're the elected parasites... that should tell you a bit about who voted.

I always remember the question for Bill Gates were someone asked him if the Middle East will ever catch up with the rest of the world technology wise. And his answer was basically "no" because you shut out half of your population, holding women down.

[–] Soleos@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

They don't want no women, they want subservient women. Think Handmaid's Tale in space.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 23 points 6 days ago

The amount of puss-outs to the fat orange is absolutely boggling

This anti-DEI measures are completely crazy.

[–] absentbird@lemm.ee 4 points 5 days ago

Anti-DEI is just a newfangled way of saying white men only.

[–] Bloomcole@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

NASA is always, and in the first place a military organisation in service of the US regime.
