This is unfortunate from a national pre-equivalents value-market but for Christian Conservative values it is a net plus

This comment is a lot. Yikes.

What values? Blaming the poor? Being greedy, stingy, hate? Divorce? Pedophiles?

All of this, plus removing evidence of climate change impact.

...oh, but make no mistake, if you asked them, they'd probably vigorously deny they are anti-science - as long as the science happens in properly "unbiased" private companies, like SpaceX.

TIL, the Goddard Institute is in the same building at the Seinfeld diner.

Having read the article it seems like the new budget cuts costs by having people work remotely instead of having an expensive office in Manhattan. I understand why employees would complain about that but the article is blowing this way out of proportion

Are you an actual bot? 4-month-old account, 0 karma, and that's not even what the article was about.

NASA Goddard is being illegally dismantled during the shutdown. The events/timeline is shown and the full emails sent to Goddard employees are provided. Don't dismiss this as people complaining about a WFH policy--the buildings are being demolished.

I mean their name is a bit on the nose.

No buildings are being demolished. The email is just a reminder of existing early retirement programs. I oppose cutting deep space missions but this article does a very poor job of explaining how those are being cut if they in fact are.
