“At the end of the day, the America Party will only split votes from one party, the Republican Party. This will cause Democrats to win and destroy the country.”
America already ended on election night. Passing the big ugly is just more proof of that. What will come next, if autocracy is defeated, will be something different. The singular fundamental change will be the end of oligarchy by doing exactly what the author advocates: getting rid of billionaires.
Musk could have gone from zero to hero and been a central figure in the history of our species. Like many others, he failed, and nothing is going to change most of the planet’s disgust at this point after the “Roman salutes” and cutting off aid to starving children. His concept of the megaconstellation is, in an uncanny mirror of his denouncing Space Solar Power, “the stupidest thing ever.” His hobby rocket landing back the first stage, only made possible by the engineers working for him, will be his only real success and claim to any good… and not nearly enough to redeem him.
NewSpace, the worst thing that ever happened to space exploration and colonization, must somehow now be undone.
I would advocate for a “New Deal.” Not only a “New Green Deal”, but a “New Green Space Deal.” The end of burning fossil fuel by the end of the century and a permanent solution to Climate Change. Factories on the Moon.
