NYC is better than Norleans, the Mexican-American War is indefensible, no mention of the Philippines for Teddy or the St. Louis (Internment gets a reasonable status as a permanent asterisk in discussions I've seen) for Franky, and NASA funding was terrible. Other than that very good list.

What's so bad about NASA?

Every part of the NASA budget besides satellite maintenance is nothing more than literally throwing money into a bottomless pit.

It's more white-supremacy-coded than an anime featuring sexualized children as Norse Gods.

Space travel as a means of extracting any value, such as habitation, extraterrestrial contact, or resource extraction has essentially been *disproven* by experts.

The cultural conception of it, meanwhile, is that this planet is disposable and replaceable.

All space excursions and travel should not merely be banned, but defunded. Everything higher than maximum plane height should be the domain of satellite maintenance exclusively by order of the UN.
