Especially once almost everyone lives either in utopian anarchist and libertarian small private-corporation-run gated communities and seasteads or under totalitarian communist regimes, and no one really believes democratic governments are completely capable of doing anything. - Victor Ganata

The Russians went to the moon too - Johnny from iPhone

They never actually landed, though. (At least, not according to official histories…) - Victor Ganata

Yeah, cause a democracy put in place a massive centrally run and funded program and tasked the national to put their shoulders to the wheel for the good of the nation. They out-commied the commies - Johnny from iPhone

Well, it does prove the point that neither totalitarianism nor anarchocapitalist limited government has ever managed to put a man on the moon (at least officially) ;) And anyone who espouses either ideology has plenty of reason to deny that we ever really did. - Victor Ganata

Tehehe... True :) - Johnny from iPhone

Let's see,I watched the moon landing on TV, it was the year I graduated from high school and I'm 60... - WarLord

I mean, didn't someone mention before that they knew people who didn't realize "Apollo 13" wasn't a science fiction movie? - Victor Ganata

Pfft, you guys need to stop with the propaganda. No communist country could ever go to space...they can't even feed their people, not to mention their healthcare sucks...oh wait, uh, nevermind. - Scoble, Alex Scoble

Before they were birthers, the conspiracy freaks decided that the Apollo moon landings were a fake, staged in some big Hollywood sound stage. I can't remember the "why" at this point but yeah the tinfoil hats were baying at teh moon - WarLord
