I think you are part right. I do not really see the worship of the past, and am often concerned about failures to preserve the past.

I think the problem with things like satellites and technology in general is more to do with the ruling class being declinist, unambitious, and plain incompetent. We will be spending more on HS2 than NASA spent on Artemis, and HS2 is not even achieving anything close to its original aims. That is just one example.

people here don't even know we have a satellite manufacturing industry that's quite successful and very sophisticated.

That is true. Again there is a reluctance of celebrate successes.

I am also also from a former colony BTW.
