We should not return to Earth.

We should stay here.

I know that may be an unacceptable proposition to some of you, especially after the most recent difficulties with opening the agricultural wing.

But from the perspective of safety and advantage, this is better.

Even at its widest point, the English Channel is only 240 kilometers.

But would they disagree with me with such honesty about the reason why? No... in fact, I'm finding the opposite.

Still, it is worth it to make the suggestion, I think.

Do you believe that voicing the suggestion will convince others to try and stay up here?

[salvagedsoul]

If you're asking if I had that specific objective when making this post, then no. But I doubt I could convince the lot of us on my own. I'm just one.

At least you recognize that. From what I can see, the people here are a stubborn bunch. It can be irritating.

[salvagedsoul]

So, what would you propose instead?

[luxuresombre]

That's where I stop. I don't pretend to have all the answers.

[salvagedsoul]

Is it appropriate to criticize leadership when you have nothing to add about how things ought to be different?

[luxuresombre]

Certainly. We don't need to be brilliant at something to criticize others for it.

[salvagedsoul]

Criticism is incomplete without an alternate proposition. The hard decisions of others are easy to complain about in hindsight.
