    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?

      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.
