Shoutout to Reagan for defunding all of American science to dig a giant hole in Texas that the European expert counterparts already warned was a dumbass idea that would never work

It’s more than just funding science it’s funding education and social systems that enable people to participate, it’s a culture of mutual uplift rather than a free for all deathmatch, it’s a community that instead of feeling resentment for any success anyone else has shows support and seeks to learn from them.

It’s weeks since I saw a thread on lemmy which wasn’t attacking and shitting on anyone doing anything, sure government funding is important but it’s not the only thing that matters.

CPC and PRC government is actually pretty full of scientists, engineers and such.
