@raghukamath@social.raghukamath.com Maybe I'm too cynical... It's cool to watch a rocket blast off.
But it's tax season and I'm watching my country build ballrooms for the political elites, wage pointless wars in the middle east, and try to repeat space missions that we already did when my parents were kids.
I simply don't feel that our priorities are in order.
If another country was doing it, then I would have no complaints.

@emmetoneill@mas.to We all are now tired by the shenanigans of our governments. Sadly some also feel fear of expressing this. It makes us loose hope in the process and system. But then we should be optimistic. Every night is surely followed by a day. The problem both here and in your place seems to be from non participation of people. I hope people wake up and choose better, not just once but every-time, that is only thing I can hope for the sake of my (our) future generation.

@emmetoneill@mas.to @raghukamath@social.raghukamath.com it's not cynical. the difference between rockets going to space and the boss' pizza is virtually none.
