poo poo bad
Do you think that the first space colony's ideology will have a impact on our future?
Would world, where first sucessfull settlement was fascist, change it's way where it's heading?
But could it possibly for example reverse current leftist academia?
I was thinking about this today . Would one communist colony produce even more communist colonies or people would be horrified and they would try to create colony with opposite values or they would go full reactionary?
If US wins the space race and the first colonizers will be some diverse international team, wouldn't conservatives become anti-technology people? As a more conservative person, I kinda fear this. In the end we may be seen as anti-progress anti-science group.
Capitalism requires millions of people to properly work. Individualistic colony is very very unlikely thing.
I would say that it would be good to send only the best specimen from our country. Intellect, morality and self-control seem like good values for our future colonizers. They will be in demanding struggle against their new world, conflicts between them can destroy the whole project. Imagine a sadistic sociopath between 50 people thousands and thousands kilometers away from the nearest advanced civilized society.
Why should we bring "our sins" into the new world? It's an option to make progress of human species themselves. Space colonizers should be group addapted to their home, not just people who paid for residence in space. It would be good to carefully select between immigrants.
Is Gregory Cochran right or is it going too far?

@Deleted User I interpret this as "political compass is one of the worst political tests you can do"
People who engaged in Thirty Years' War
It was probably the most devastating war in Europe
WW1 killed ~1.5% of human population and Thirty Years' War nearly 2%. German and Czech lands recovered much slower compared to WW1.
Thirty Years' War led to more agressive colonization, that caused many deaths as well and it made free space for Prussian militarism.
Human population thing is legit in this comparison, because even with tanks, gas, aircraft and more urbanized population WW1 killed less % of European population than few absolute monarchs.
GOP is just democratic party 40 years ago
