      If we don’t move beyond capitalism in a very short amount of time, we’re not going anywhere, so no need to worry

      I don’t think we need to worry about that. If we don’t stop capitalism, we’re not going anywhere.

      I don’t think so tbh… The Expanse feels more probable, in its economic and class dynamics. Same old shit you know? We just find (or create…) new peoples to colonize.

      This small parcel of human beings who are (at least slightly) sociopathic kinda won out. Thousands of years ago they started out their project, and now they rule the world.

      If we don’t destroy capitalism, it will keep doing what it does, reinventing itself so it exists forever.
