How is it possible that no one in charge of NASA has ever read science fiction? This is exactly the wrong direction they should be going, and it should be common sense by now, to know that.

They’ve read all the books. The guys in charge right now identify more with the villains, not the heroes.

The world is in the hands of the antagonists.

They're going to cross a line, I'm an accelerationist only up to that point. I want us to help them cross the line so we can get this shit in working order.
