> if we don't make life multiplanetary, humanity will die out on earth elon is a retard as recently exampled by everything he's said and done.  when new colonies are established what do they do? they eventually have their own culture, own way of life, own people.  which separates from the source or establishment that made them.  on a long enough time scale they will rebel or form their own nation.  during this time or after, there will be war with their source nation or planet.  so by doing this, elon has ensured interplanetary war.  which very likely could destroy all of humanity as we lob giant asteroids at each other.  and it will happen because it's always happened that way with earth colonies. they don't stay colonies and they don't stay yours.  and when that happens on a long enough time scale there will be conflict and war.  interplanetary war.  in fact if i were in charge of this, i'd write laws that say no planet without our system can be colonized only planets in other star systems because that greatly nullifies the threat by the vastness of space. if a colony were to rebel if they're light years away that might create enough of a gap that nothing about it is too harsh. if the colony is on mars and they rebel, then we're all pretty fucked.  and again, elon musk is a fucking child in a grown man's body.
