The two go hand in hand. You can’t have a well-adjusted, spacefaring society which also stones gay men to death on a regular basis.

These things are not compatible.

The US developed nuclear weapons in an era where black people could not marry white people. I agree that tech and society evolve together, just not always at the same rate.

That’s bs.

The US is a prime example of a morally bankrupt society in many ways; lgbtq rights, women’s rights, worker’s rights, housing, medical care, racist policing, death penalty etc. and yet we still think of ourselves as the most advanced society on earth.
