The first crew would face the most difficult challenges. Imagine the relief after expecting to establish the fundamentals of civilization, and instead are just assigned your living quarters.

I would definitely prefer to be a leader of new world than just be sent to my room.

I guess. I’m more of a space socialist, myself. Silly me always assumed that equality and collaboration would be a precursor to colonization of other worlds. Musk is trying so hard to prove me wrong. Lol

What if you set out with the idea of starting socialist utopia on a new planet and get there to find booming corporate dystopia?

Put me back to sleep and wake me for the revolution.

Let's burn this bitch down and start over with the common man in mind, and the needs of everyone met.

Or let's go find a new planet. With blackjack, and hookers.

I don't know how you can look around at the world and think that will ever be a thing.

If people stopped starving, beating,.and raping children for 2 generations it would be possible. Humans have no need to compete with each other for survival already. If we could just get a generation or two with minimal human inflicted trauma it would be obvious.

Seems possible to me.

How do you propose we achieve this? We'd have to isolate a group of people who've never experienced abuse and set them up somewhere the rest of us could never come in contact with them again.

Space is big. You can always go out and find a different place.
