I’m so confused, I thought everyone was pretty much on board with the idea that space burials were cool, just not like, worth violating indigenous beliefs over cool. I guess because i think having my ashes being in space would be cool I should… Kill myself? Stuff like this makes me worried I’m a legitimately bad person. I don’t know if I just stumbled into a liberal ideology pit or people think I have a different take than I do and whenever this happens it’s insanely stressful. I really don’t want to deface anything important to people, and I agree that the moon should be everyone’s and not able to be claimed by rich assholes. I DO think having my ashes be buried on the moon would be cool but that’s obviously not possible to do without hurting actual people or setting a bad precedent. I understand that and I have been educated there. I have obviously been a massive liberal and still are.
Edit: oh
In Das Kapital they have a whole chapter about how space burials are the 13th form of liberalism. /s
You're not a bad person for thinking space burials are cool lmao. Personally I think putting anything on the moon that's not strictly necessary should be held off. Maybe in the future when there's cities on the moon it won't mattet if you spread some ashes, but I think keeping it pristine is good for now.
Firing ashes off into the sun sounds dope tho. like I don't think there's anything wrong with it other than it possibly being wasteful. but hey since we're fantasy land maybe in the future space cannons are cheaper than ubers.
