Can you string together 2 sentences without culture war tropes?

Culture war is when a person points out the chauvinism inherent in cracker fantasies about colonizing the stars because there is nowhere left to colonize here without just admitting to themselves they just want to subjugate everyone and everything on earth and above.

@frauddogg@hexbear.net is 100% correct in every single comment they have made in this thread.

I can’t really even add anything to this other than say they right fuck off.

“As below, so above” might as well be the settler-colonizer’s ethos. “As I subjugate everything below me, I must reach for what’s above.” At what point is Polly satisfied?

Never, apparently. Humanity will go extinct thanks to this malign tumor on our collective neck.

Also funny how libs mistake actual structural material analysis as “culture war tropes” because their framework for viewing the world is constrained by their MSNBC vs Fox News idea of good and bad and anything that challenges it must be from the wrong side of said culture war. Which funnily enough is also culture war bullshit.

“Surely I can’t be racist I’m one of the good white people!”

Ironically enough in their fantasy about reaching mars with privatized space planes that is an extremely likely scenario lol

I keep thinking about what’s been happening to Boeings lately and smiling. "C’mon, bazinga, go see the stars." [stick-poke meme]
