@tofugolem sounds like you're assuming regulation necessarily makes things safer, but that's not the case. Often enough compliance with regulations can actually make things more dangerous, particularly when regulations aren't quite tailored for the situations they're being applied to.
So no, it's not about making SpaceX less safe. That's just not how this stuff works out in practice.
Oh I would go the exact other way with each of those examples. Deregulated? Each of those are examples of highly regulated topics where the effects you're citing can be reasonably traced back to regulation!
Each of those is notorious for tremendous regulatory regimes even through those issues, so it's really something that you would describe them as deregulated.
And immediate little serf? I'm saying not to assume that more control over us is necessarily for the best, and I'm the obedient serf?
Weird, that.
Indeed, I do go the other way. Because I'm not so willing to just accept the authorities telling us what they're doing is for our own good, I'm not so willing to believe the elite as they impose on you and me.
But you're into that kind of relationship, so have at it.
@tofugolem please do tell me where you got the material for that straw man to set up.
Where in the world did you get the idea that that was my position? Certainly it's not.
Indeed, let's review, and let's go ahead with that second sentence. Orange God? What in the world?
