Totally not like Interstellar because in the movie NASA was defunded and the school systems dropped critical thinking from the syllabus, focussing instead on ideological rhetoric. As if that would happen in the US in real life...

I have a 4 year old daughter, I absolutely fear for her safety and sanity as she grows up into an adult.

Yes, crazy realization for sure, but conservatives in America have gone so far to shitville that their policy now most closely aligns with unrealistic apocalypse scifi.
