    Autism Speaks. It has a pro-eugenics mindset, so you’d think everyone would be boycotting it, right? Nope, in fact it’s partnered with the Jim Henson company.

    Boycotting micro$oft till the day I die, OS monopolies (or close to it) shouldn’t exist. Plus their OS is mediocre at best.

    Ideally every corpo should be boycotted though. But it’s quite difficult to boycott some of them (like Google, who likes to live inside every android phone, effectively having a duopoly with Apple, another really shitty company)

      Why SpaceX? I hate Musk and do not support any of his other… anythings. However, rocket go zoom then land without boom is fun to watch. I am genuinely curious why SpaceX is bad.

      I completely agree about everything else you mentioned.

        Yeah, Musk is a true innovater by having them blow up the concrete launchpad on launch instead…

        The government got more money from the patents NASA got then it cost to fund NASA. Privatizing space hurts everyone except the rich asshole who gets the parents.

          For fucks sake.

          I clearly said I do not like musk. I even went as far as saying I hate him but still that’s the first place you went. What the fuck?

            Yeah, but there’s also the cognitive dissonance of you saying SpaceX is fun because they don’t explode…

            But they do explode. Waaaaay more than NASA. Because if a NASA launch goes bad, everyone pays attention. If SpaceX goes bad, people just shrug

            So by your own metrics you just said…

            NASA is better than SpaceX.

            No matter what position I took, it would have disagreed with your comment, because your comment disagrees with itself. Which explains why you think spacex is a positive.
