@Charles_in_Charge @machciv @Starprophet1 @CatLord @TrevorGoodchild @professionalbigot69 I agree entirely. I'm thinking this out for the first time and South America was something that occurred to me that it could go differently.

But space and off Earth colonies are something entirely different in our history. It will have very unique and very powerful selection effects. I have no doubt on our ability to fuck things up but in the end off world humans will be very different from us. Much more intelligent. And much more cut and dry in their decision making.

Ruthless fuckers. The idea of European White pathological altruism and the White man's burden will be utterly alien to them.

Imagine a society with orbital military power and ~110+ average intelligence and organization that goes with it encountering a sub 70 IQ African nigger or Indian street shitter in two centuries.

Extermination and conquest of "their" resources will be the obvious decision. And without quilt. Talking animals have no rights.
