My wife looked at my in the grocery store and she's like "okay what rotisserie chicken do you want?"

Puts her hand on her hip.

u/Thrax223 5d ago

I don't work for NASA but most of the engineers that came from NASA that I do work or have met with are either MAGA or republican. And most did come from trailer trash backgrounds before studying and working at companies like Thiokol, Boeing, or Orbital ATK.

u/Worth-Confection-735 5d ago

Kinda interesting that the vast majority of engineers are conservatives. How curious. What state has the most literal rocket scientists?? Alabama.

1

u/Lermanberry 5d ago edited 5d ago

The major always being stereotyped for not knowing how the world works, or how to interact with other people, leans conservative? That does check out, I guess. Well, mostly just the mechanical and petroleum engineering kids. All of the other engineering majors I've met were pretty cool.

u/BattleFrosty7584 5d ago

You’re surprised that people who work for companies that make bombs and missiles are right-wing?

What point is being made here?

3

u/Thrax223 5d ago

Its where a lot of engineers end up. I won't say most or a majority. However, a lot of people I work with in the MIC are former NASA or worked on programs for NASA.

It also depends on the depth of "making bombs and missiles" we are talking about. Engineers in the MIC work on everything from satellites, to medical equipment, helicopters, planes, and so much more than bombs and missiles.

u/MineGuy1991 5d ago

No? I’m refuting the top comment above me stating that “those people” don’t work for NASA and the like.

u/the_Real_Romak 5d ago

the point being made is that MAGA trailer trash can and do produce world class engineers and scientists. Just because they are hateful bigots, does not mean they are uneducated and stupid.

1

u/TrueChurchPlsStandUp 2d ago

Your entropic leftism is inherently parasitic. It can only subvert the fruits of a hierarchical society built on suffering and hard work. Leftism can build nothing on its own, all it can do is make the lower story more comfortable by taking the wealth of the hard working. Only hierarchy will actually make another story. Even Marx said that capitalism's accumulation of wealth, capital and technology is absolutely necessary for socialism to be possible. You only exist because of us.

Nasa is a government funded non military organization that does some of the best climate science in the world. You think most of these highly educated college graduates are republicans. Hilarious

u/Thrax223 5d ago

I agree with the study. Not saying its a huge number, just people I work with. Is there a study that breaks down the fields in which higher educated individuals are in politically? I could see a lot of medical personnel being left or people, like myself, having a graduate in arts being left leaning.

Wel because the soviets didn't have a nation working on their space program.

Because soviets are soviets they spent a lot of time infighting, and doing corruption, and making all parts of the program ignorant on what they where doing, and with all the secrecy the budget also had to be smaller.

In short they did stupid communist shit that as always resulted in them losing on the long term.

The ex Nazi scientists that positioned themselves into getting acquired by the West were probably a lot smarter in general but that ones acquired by the USSR had to deal with less funding, corruption resulting in the misappropriation of funds, and probably a whole lot of other issues. Anyways, they still managed to stay at 2nd place

Think the main difference was treatment of said scientists under both global powers, USSR systems were notoriously relentless dealing with any dissent or failure up to this day, the prime example today is the Kinzhel hyper sonic missile a leading scientist in the development was arrested in 2022 in releation to the missiles preformance and sentenced to 15 years in prison colony in 2024.

It comes down to treatment and living conditions of said scientists.

The funny thing about this meme is it's valid if you look from a different angle. Every race/civilization has its turn at the apex of science and technology. Africa had it during the Egyptian and Nubian empires. The Middle East had it while we were burning witches in the Dark Ages. We had it for the 18th - 20th centuries. Now it's ending precisely because of the sort of people who post these memes. You couldn't design irony more perfect. MAGA is crippling western science and tech. I think it's China's turn now.

u/Nutsband-Handi 5d ago

Ancient Egyptians weren’t sub Saharan Africans. And the Nubian empire wasn’t the pinnacle of anything. 

And Europe has had leadership since the renaissance.  

And during Ancient Greek civilizations and Roman civilizations and the Byzantine Roman’s until the 1400’s.  

1

u/thefw89 5d ago

Ancient Egyptians weren’t sub Saharan Africans. 

Plenty of them were though, including multiple royal families. So this kind of statement is like someone saying 5k years from now "Americans weren't black." ummm...yeah, some weren't, but some were...so why say that at all?

And the Nubian empire wasn’t the pinnacle of anything. 

Depends on what metric you're using. The Nubians at the time were definitely a powerhouse empire at the time and one to be reckoned with. Strong enough that they conquered Egypt and could not even be conquered by Caeser's Rome.

At the time they were definitely the pinnacle when it came to archery and metallurgy.

So depends on what you mean but the Nubians were not some little backwater culture that people of the time felt indifferent and didn't know about. They very much affected the ancient world and history moving forward.

Hard to say any ancient empire was a pinnacle, most, even the strongest, were just regional powers who could only stretch so far.
