I haven't seen this particular argument made directly. Q: How can you want to go to Mars while there are hungry children? A: Going to Mars is how I benchmark the value of those children. Is their max potential "future spacefarers" or something lower?

Yes go lower, literally. Seastead instead. Rid the oceans of plastic and plant kelp farms to sustain the planet while sustaining Uber masculine exploration itch. Explore to nurture, not conquer. Space Travel is just another manifestation of Frontier/Pioneer Bias.

It may not be, but it’s just a good symbolic motif for testing your highest potential constantly even if it seems like there are higher existential priorities around.
