You won't be alone on that hill.

This issue is yet another reminder that capitalism only appears to work because you assume infinite resources on a finite planet.

This one of the stupider hills to die on.

There are plenty of other factors interfering with astronomy and they can largely processed away.

This is complete bullshit, and a reminder that anti-capitalists are not worth arguing with.

Capitalism is terrible, it’s just far better than anything else we’ve ever tried.

It’s only real Achilles heel is tragedy of the commons (like this), which is a problem for the isms as well.
