I Used To Enjoy Space

Why Has It Been Ruined

When oy was bot a wee wain, I used to enjoy reading and learning about space. It’s everything that exists, mostly, so it was pretty interesting to me.

But now, it’s been ruined by Elon Musk—who took an entire generation of people who thought future looking stuff or space travel was “cool” and then sort of warped them into uncritical stan armies that are now fighting “le wokisme.”

So here’s my idea.

We need to do the same thing on the left but for people who enjoy learning about Dinosaurs.

This is a critically untapped demographic. The space nerds have become full on psychos fighting for the military dominance of American authoritarianism. In the same way, the dinosaur people can and should be inspired by the vision of the left to become a #socialistarmy that floods “X” with messages of peace and love.

This is why I’m proposing a radical shift in American political economy: Dinolectical Materialism.

Bear with me here. Dinosaurs died and they became a gloopy sludge underground. Now we take their dead remnants, sell it as gas, and burn it in cars. But what of their descendants, the humble birds?

Exactly.

Ignored, hated upon, trampled, struck. Watched, leered at, given perches, given homes (dawning realization occurring on my face), fed, cared for, preserved. Researched, loved, adopted, documented.

Okay, so birds are treated more or less fine. But they should be receiving profits from the oil companies.

Happy Birthday, Nabeel. You deserve it.
