I hope Stephen Hawking’s anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist politics aren’t erased from history, or obscured in our collective remembrance of him. 

They erased MLK, George Orwell, and Hellen Keller’s anti-capitalist positions, they’ll definitely do they same for Hawking.

Hell, most people outright ignored it while he was alive.

Thinking about it, the best comparison is Einstein.

Einstein was a great advocate for socialism, economic and racial justice, and higher education, but the neoliberal capitalist system has reduced his accomplishments to “e=mc^2” and sell his likeness on pop t-shirts.

Crazy that the shit that all the geniuses agree on tends to be similar and nobody acknowledges it
