Nice, this sounds like some much-needed realism to the hypercapitalist utopian discourse surrounding Mars colonization.

Don't forget to wear a helmet! ;)

Great article, thanks! I wonder if the work by Follow This fits the definition: https://www.follow-this.org/

Woah, this goes way over my head, so I'm gonna keep on re-reading it until I understand it (hopefully). Thanks for this post!

Dear lord. Even though I read similar stories pretty often, your text still hits. Thanks, not for the tears, but for the reminder.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is a welcome, timely contribution.

Gosh I really admire your story and your strength!

Just pointing out that Existential Risk Observatory (existentialriskobservatory.org) has been trying to reach a larger audience for a few years now, with increasing - albeit geographically limited - success.

Following this for sure!
