What an idiotic move it would be to potentially piss off a powerful man-child leading a nation while you’re dependent on an agency of that nation to get back to civilization.
I literally can’t think of a worse position to speak up against Trump than on a NASA mission in space. Maybe the men’s toilet on one of how rallies? But you’d probably easily survive that.
Surely the opportunity to make such an important message to a global audience would trump the personal safety of 4 guys careers to anyone with half a conscious.
It’s not just careers on the line here. And that to say something just so all the people who need to hear it immediately get back into the brainwash machine again 5 minutes later to listen to thousands of hours of billionaire-controlled media? That’s worth it?
What’s he going to do, cancel their mission in space? The whole thing is programmed, they’ll just come home like always. Do you really think that if Trump screamed “I hate them! Leave them in space to die!” that the NASA operatives would just go along with it - “Sorry guys, the boss says No. It was nice knowing you?”
Of course not. They would completely ignore that order, and bring them home anyway. And if somehow that wasn’t possible, we aren’t the only people in space. It would be a great propaganda coup for some other country to go up and rescue them instead.
They had all the leverage in the world to put in some words againt their god-king but chose not to. Imagine Trump ordering the NASA to leave them stranded there because he didn’t like what they said, that would be something the eurogoons couldn’t even ignore and opens up the possibility that anyone else, let’s be real only China could, rescues them and scores a huge diplomatic win.
it was the best platform they will ever have to speak up against Trump, if they didn’t do it it’s because they’re aligned 🤷♀️ , which i know they are because all but one are jarheads.

Can you think about their careers tho! No choice but to toe the line like good jarheads.
That’s how you turn Artemis into an IPBM project. You have to tow the line in situations such as this.
Bone apple tea moment.
*toe the line
As in stand with the toe of your boots along a line in the dirt with the other soldiers of your faction
Ah, thanks for pointing that out

Completely agree with what you said.
