Why hasn't anyone gone beyond low earth orbit besides those who went to the moon?

because kennedy was literally a space fag and the CIA hated him so much that they would rather spend trillions liquefying poor brown people all over the world instead of spend the cost of a single fucking rocket on a mission that doesn’t land it nose-down somewhere on earth, preferably on top of a hospital.

I could be wrong and maybe leaving low earth orbit is the hardest part about human spaceflight to the moon but I feel like there should have been an intermediate step of shorter flights beyond low earth orbit before attempting to go a quarter of a million miles away from earth. As it stands all human spaceflight missions can be categorized between those that traveled under 300 miles away from earth's surface and those that traveled 240,000 miles away with no in between.

Going beyond just means more radiation exposure for no benefit.
