Jeff Bezos Says He Doesn't Understand Why Anybody Alive Now Would Be 'Discouraged'—Because Soon, 'Millions Of People Will Be Living In Space'
-
"I believe, in the next couple of decades, there will be millions of people living in space. That's how fast this is going to accelerate," he said.
Jeff Bezos has been saying this stuff for a while. It's not clear whether he's just hyping his rockets, but he seems genuinely delusional and detached from reality. I remember an interview in which he was beside himself with enthusiasm for the idea that humanity was going to spread billions of people throughout the whole solar system. To most of us it's not clear why this is supposed to be a good thing, especially if these people will all be abused by mega corporations like Amazon. And it's utterly impossible. Besides, most people would prefer to do anything at all to try to save Earth from the ravages of capitalists like Bezos. But of course these techbro assholes prefer to live in sci-fi fantasies than actually have to pay their workers and their taxes and clean up their pollution.
If he meant it, he would be pumping more resources into Blue Origin's Orbital Reef space station concept instead of sitting around and waiting for NASA to fund it. Vast is planning to launch a little 4 person private space station next year. Blue should have been way ahead of them.

Why did Jeff Bezos not distribute his earthly posessions across the world to everyone already? He will live in space soon anyway.

Because tech billionaires can charge money for all of that in space!

Unless I'm on a federation starship I don't want to live in space. I want to live on earth where my species belongs

"Jeff bezos says" has the same level of legitimacy as people going "as a mother". Yeah he's rich but he's also mind numbingly stupid. Why do I care about anything he has to say because none of it is reasonable logical or relevant.
Is rocket doesn't even get above the karmen line and takes about six people at a time. How are millions of people even going to get into space with that kind of transport system?

I want off this planet onto a different earth-like planet in another star system, but even the most delusional billionaire doesn't think that we'll have access to other systems anytime soon.

Okay Jeff. How about less talk, more New Glenn launches?

I guess this means he's going to give all his Amazon employees a pay raise equivalent to his own salary so that everyone will be equally financially able to travel to space.

We should shoot his ass into space in the Apollo 13 capsule with all the manuals, and let him know that he has to safely navigate it around the moon and back to earth by himself, and if he does, we'll let him live.
He'll die within 2 days
i prefer him in a titan ICBM into space.

So you're saying they're Gou'lds, then? Who has Stargate future on their doomsday bingo card?
goa'ulds have the luxury of using a stargate or a ha'tak to escape a planet when the people revolt. these fools think they have a spaceship to escape with.

I mean, they are stupid cocaine-brained man-children, but it would be history's greatest fuckup to *choose * space over Earth. No matter how much we manage to fuck it up, it will always be more suitable for life than space or mars.

Let's at least hate accurately. Blue Origin is working on a ton of stuff, just super slowly. Their orbital rocket, New Glenn, should have its 2nd launch in a few weeks. They're working on a space station, Orbital Reef, but I have no idea what the timeline is. They're also allegedly working on an orbital crew capsule, but that has almost zero public info.

Jeff, my boy: Newsflash — humanity has ALWAYS lived in space. We’ve got an awesome orbital station that manages food, climate, entertainment, and almost everything else we’ve ever needed.
Are you calling for us to abandon ship for an inferior product?
One wholly owned, serviced, and supplied by Amazon.
But don’t worry. Orbital Prime is only $999 a year and includes unlimited deliveries and six return trips to land. (For now)
