I care cos the survival of our speicies is more important than any individual or their ideology. Plus i recon i got a real chance at being said elite.
Honestly given current technology, it makes the most sense to care for the Earth than attempt to colonize other planets, which are fundamentally unlivable in a myriad of ways. Survival of our species doesnβt mean a whole lot if it is 8 guys in a Mars base dependent on regular supply missions from Earth.
Not to mention, if we do focus on our planet and how to best manage the environment, it teaches lessons on how to potentially manage other planetsβ one day.
Iβd argue that if we canβt protect the little guy from the billionaires, then the race has no business continuing on into space.
So ur posing an ultimatum where one case is the extermination of our entire speicies the genociding of our enture spiecies.
Is that what u really stand for? The willing genocide of 8billion people?
Hypothetically if the ultra rich built this up and got to a point where humanity is ending, and they could save 10,000 of their friends and hanged-oners, but everyone else on Earth dies, and you have a button that could trap them here, would you poke it?
