I just don’t care if we survive as a species. We aren’t surviving forever. I care about having a good time while we can. I don’t think having ten billion people with 99% of them being poor is good. I don’t think 20 billion forced to eat bugs and die of treatable disease is good. I don’t think having kids just to have kids and keep the species going is good.

I think we should attempt to make the world a great place for the few humans who can live a grand life until it all dies. Through technology and evolution we can achieve amazing things and see more than we would ever be able to see but… it’s going to destroy the planet faster. Oh well.

I just don’t really care about preserving anything because to preserve it means we are going back to the dirt and, quite frankly, I’d rather the species just go extinct at that point than fall into some dark religious anti intelligent shit hole where you suffer until death and we go extinct anyways eventually after adding who knows how many centuries of suffering to the universe.

I feel like people won’t say it, but actions speak louder than words! I have vegan progressive and lgbtq friends eating at McDonald’s (supporting killing animals even though you don’t eat it yourself), flying to Florida to vacation (supporting fascism), buying trucks (anti climate change) and working at major corporations (supporting all that’s bad by being a cog) on and on and on with the choices I see people make that add another little cut to the thousands that will cause the death of the planet.

So come on, just admit it, you don’t really care either. Do you?

    This and the general Nazification of “american” culture also cause me severe misanthropy. You have to remember that the usa is not the world, though.

      Except the US has shipped all of our plastics over seas, and I’ve read stories about trash rivers, plastic ocean islands and such. Doesn’t Japan have a single use plastics problem? Isn’t Norway rich from oil?

      The destruction of earth is everywhere.
