Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

I can't leave. I see the sheer stupidity, I want to distance myself from it, but I'm stuck on this planet. No matter how hard I want to live on Mars, I can't, and it's not fair.
I would be ok with a compromise to get the current administration and those nuts to Mars ASAP.
I'd like to see them leave for Mars. Don't care if they actually make it there.
if Mars get populated, bunch of Musk fanboys would be among the first to volunteer, so i pass
Wouldn't be long before they convinced themselves the outside air was breathable and staying inside was infringing on their liberties.
I hear the perchlorates are lovely this time of year.
The SpaceX mission to Mars more and more look like FSD in Tesla.
There's no way a company will bet on such risky mission, that if it failed it would completely kill it. It would actually have to be financed by a government, but as they are dismantling it, it also looks less likely.
We have much better chance for future if we can stop pollution and stop climate change. The billionaires think that they can simply run to Mars, but it won't be in their lifetime.
Also if somehow it will be successful, it won't be for us, unless maybe sending us as a slave labor.
Honestly at this point, I don't need a ship or even a suit, just shunt me straight out into the cold vacuum of space. I just don't want to die on this rock, let my corpse drift among the stars until it gets caught in a gravity well and pulled into our Sun.
Well, is it? The air can be hot or cold.
On sunlight or in shade of some object?
The outside of ISS heats up to 250°F (121°C) in sunlight. That's not quite cold.
