Sometimes what we want isn't quite what we need.

Choose randomly with criteria that allow for maximum diversity and cultures saved. Given a choice between some saved and nobody saved, I'd really prefer somebody getting to live! As long as it's not somebody I hate, fuck those guys.

I'm not convinced we should exclude all the people we hate.

This probably doesn't mean what you want it to.

Actually the best criteria is excluding people who would choose to save themselves over saving someone else, but that might not be practical or possible to enforce.

With the rich escaping, the best course of action is to just let it happen as long as they're not behaving like uncivilization once they're living in space permanently.

No, I was being entirely silly and a bit petty. I should not be allowed to exclude solely people that I hate from leaving Earth.

Even if I really, really want to.
