Mars doesn’t have authoritarian Leftists trying to tell me what I can’t read, can’t say and can’t think. So there’s definitely a plus side.

Do you really think that if human beings show up in significant numbers anywhere that the political Left will just leave them in peace?

The only place freedom exists is on the frontier,
everything else is civilization, even on the frontier
it doesn’t last long.

No, you have a point - the Left is as aggressive as the most radical forms of Islam.

Any community on Mars will be by definition far-removed from current earthly political trends. A chance to start over. Anyone espousing leftie drivel can just go off and start on their own.

The idea is that the Leftists would never make it anywhere else.   They would taste the vacuum of space long before they reached the destination.   When air has a price, it isn't as likely to be wasted.

Yep, wherever humans go, we will take all of our human problems with us. We can’t escape ourselves.
