A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Never. By the time average people get there it will be as prison space labor.
After we nuke this planet
Rich vampires would even subsidize it, because it will be a hellhole, due to it being an extremely controlled environment with alternative being death.
Never.
1000 years after middle class people can afford to go to another continent.
If they can reasonably be made into fuel... I suspect middle class people could go to Mars in the very near future!
If robots become too expensive to manufacture/send, our billionaire role models (and soon to be our official overlords) will need humans to replace them. We're kinda cheap and very much expandable.
Otherwise, it probably won't happen. They have no choice but deal with the 8 billions of us on planet earth but why would they want to allow us to spread on their brand new planet if they can avoid it?
