Comment on A City on Mars: Reality kills space settlement dreams
BaroqueInMind@kbin.social 10 months ago"We need a new renaissance" is a dog whistle for "we need a white culture (Rome) to dominate and destroy the societies adjacent to it, so that while they are recuperating, rebuilding and repopulating, we will assert our white cultural dominance and leverage that to impose our ideals and religion into every facet of other cultures and then call it a renaissance".

Give me a break.
Maybe some use as dog whistle but I am not. The color or creed of the people who were around during periods of progress is irrelevant to me. I care about the progress.
And Rome has more people of color in positions of power and influence than we can even dream of today. However they did have slaves. Lots of white, Germanic slaves. Google it and chew on that while you think about your accusations of racism.
