Ethics isn't just big things it's little things as well. I don't matter I shouldn't need to do anything just isn't Left or right wing it is an apolitical thought. Claiming that because you hold yourself to be left-wing and you thought it and thus it is left wing thinking is just flat out wrong. Please explain exactly how Im wrong. Explain how your position is left wing

You didn't successfully deflate it

You are hardly the arbiter of what is left wing thinking. Fuck ethics im going to concern myself with my own needs is apolitical. Its neither Left nor right.

Instead of not enjoying something why not enjoy something else there is finite time and far more to enjoy than you shall ever find time.

What of value would be lost?

If being a POS takes half of your income potential away people will be less likely to behave so and others will think it less acceptable.

Dismissing the aggregate effect of small effects is dismissing most actual effects. Its ahistorical.

Their right to anything is as fictional as any of his works

His writing can be good and he personally can be a piece of shit. One has nothing to do with the other. His detractors as it were virtually all hate that he was a racist POS.

You seem to be entirely ignoring comtinual efforts to prevent them from becoming so empowered including murdering their scientists, bribing their leaders, drawing up agreements and them just not pushing it because the natural and expected results is war.

It is reasonable to expect that any given year the US would rather kill them all rather than let them have nukes.

Denmark is a NATO country and Greenland is part of it. As soon as we attack all of NATO is obligated to attack us. They can start non violet by stopping all trade and dumping the dollar crashing our economy.

Even just to the Greenlanders could be a real problem.

People sabatogue blow up poison and casually murder you after giving in.

We can't murder everyone and the us has been shown to be very intolerant to a few thousand troop deaths not to mention civilian deaths on their side live on TV

It would absolutely be a cluster fuck worse than Iraq

Depends on whose objecting. This arrangement pretty much only works at scale with a combination of religious brainwashing, inequality between and amongst the genders, and a healthy dose of male mortality especially from war.

Inequality among a gender: For instance if bob and Sam both make 70k 5 women aren't all marrying one or the other in most instances.

Inequality between the genders: Given a complex life path beyond follow in husband's shadow no matter what or become a parish the chance of instability with more people increases with each member added.

So the first obvious person to object to broad enactment of this idea ought to be women raised to buy into this when it's not their best option.

Next is society for such groups brainwashing kids.

Then there is the downside of the enabling inequality. Anyone not on the top end of the financial spectrum ought to object to that.

Women ought to object to the idea that they ought to share.

Men not in the top 5-20% ought to object to competing for the remaining women not attached to high status males. Note this is what incels say they are mad about now but there is so much to unpack re their broken brains and it's just not at this juncture real.

Society should be mad at the very large number of unattached men who normally cause trouble.

Some such societies deal with this by trading women like Pokemon cards and driving off excess men. This doesn't work without wars to kill them off or somewhere to drive them to.

Basically everyone but a smallish minority of men would be worse off which is why this is non existent in modern functioning society.

There little net effect on society with a small incidence of polygomy just like with lead in the water.

Such an effort would be likely to fail AND take longer than the current administration is likely to exist.

There is no such thing as something being "globalized" The UN for instance is a debating club where the majority of the seats represent individual dictators who dominate but do not speak for their countries citizens.

The idea of 50 countries collectively providing 0% of the funds should determine the mission is somewhat laughable. Also no country on earth has a process by which foreign dictators can seize or direct a company run out of their nation.

Most Jewish people are pro Israel and amongst those who are most religious or Orthodox most rises to an overwhelming majority.

This isn't pretending an ethic group has negative characteristics from a stereotype this is acknowledging an actual view most in a group have.

Most Americans are pro Christianity. Even if you view Christianity negatively it's ok to say Americans are infatuated with the trappings if not the actual virtues of Christianity because it's true even if this isn't true of every single one of us.

To my understanding Jew is not perjorative but could be in context eg if offense is obviously intended or if mention of ethnicity or religion is otherwise irrelevant.

I'm aware that different states have different laws but in no state does possession of a weapon magically obviate all claims of self defense against an unarmed person.because possession of a weapon in no way obviates the risk to you that you are attempting to ameliorate by killing the fucker.

EG if someone broke into your home to rape and murder you you aren't going to jail for stabbing them with a kitchen knife. If you disagree pick a specific state where you think the law works like that and I'll be happy to look at the relevant info.

I can't for practical purposes leave I'm poor and my wife is disabled

This is an argument for giving them less money not spacex more. A huge swarm of LEO comsats that must be constantly replaced is a poor idea compared to fiber + 5G towers for most environments. The latter is much much cheaper.

The government is legally allowed to make that judgement. Satellite internet is a tremendously dumb way to provide rural internet.

For the record: Why did you lie about them hitting their milestones on the NASA contract?

It was rescinded because there was no reason to believe at point of rescission that it was possible to meet the benchmarks. To simplify if you intend to drive 1000 miles in 5 days and on day 3 you are 200 miles in there is no reason to believe you can meet the deadline.
