      Arthur Chu Retweeted Nathan J Robinson

      One reason this isn't really coherent is that the "end of history" in the pejorative sense people say about "neoliberals" means that *we will continue as we are* indefinitely into the future That we'll have governments and corporations as we know them as we colonize the starshttps://twitter.com/NathanJRobinson/status/1340824411100901376 …

      Arthur Chu added,

      Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson
      I think reluctance to believe in extraterrestrial life is part of neoliberal "end of history" ism. If the universe is teeming with life we haven't yet found, but could, it suggests that neoliberal capitalism is not our peak but is in fact a very primitive early historical state.

      The idea that if we ever meet the aliens they'll be just like us but with bigger guns and faster computers That there will be any such thing as a "Galactic Federation" with governments and companies that sell shit and a currency and whatnot That IS "neoliberal end-of-history"

      And that's frankly what most people imagine when they think about meeting the aliens And frankly I don't think fantasies about meeting the aliens only to find out they're democratic socialists like on Star Trek and teach us better politics is all that different

          A genuine critique of the "end of history" is one that argues *something else* will happen after this status quo we have now Not necessarily a good one or one that we'll like, just something different All of us being vaporized in a nuclear war is one of those different things

          So is the idea that maybe something comes after us that goes out and spreads across the stars or something but actually is *alien* and completely different from us *Not* something that looks like our world but nicer with a robust welfare state

          It's just so headass for someone who's all pro-aliens who thinks that aliens would be our benevolent role models to think they're the broad-minded, open-minded ones To think that an "alien civilization" would have "people" in it at all
