[lorentsmful]

everything has been addressed in your videos except the real problem: humans. there are too many of them. kill them.

[zzz33333]

@lorentsmful there are lots of [wild, uncivilized] humans whose lives don't require perpetual exploitation of everything like ours does. uncivilized human populations do not perpetually, exponentially increase like civilized populations.

clearly the problem is not "humans," but "civilization."

[Boxrag]

I don't believe everything being said. I believe it's a learning process- things aren't that bleak.

[zzz33333]

@Boxrag things are not bleak or not. i am not making value judgments. i'm just telling you the truth: civilization is inherently unsustainable.

[GanaLaMana]

@Anomalous59 What do viruses do? They kill their host. Civilization is killing it's host: the whole community of life on Earth.

Can you think of a more important message?

[Anomalous59]

@zzz33333 There really isn't, you know. The issue in both cases is rampant resource consumption, which applies chiefly to civilization, and the issue is neither new nor revolutionary (and Smith phrased it better than you, I'm sorry to say).

Anyway, I won't bother with this any more. Feel free to respond, though; you may have the last word.

[zzz33333]

@Anomalous59 There's a major difference between "Humanity Is A Virus," which is what Smith said, and "Civilization Is A Virus," which is what this video says. There is a HUGE difference between "Humanity Is A Virus," which is what Smith said, and "Civilization Is A Virus," which is what the video says. Just to clarify, Humanity IS NOT A Synonym for Civilization. Is this all very clear...?

[Anomalous59]

@GanaLaMana You're responding to a comment I made 11 months ago. After having revisited the first 20 seconds of it or so, I can confirm that yes, past me was correct. This video is total nonsense. Do you remember the bit in The Matrix from 1999 where Agent Smith likens human civilization to a virus? Same basic point as this video. Most important message in the world? Doubt it.

[GanaLaMana]

@Bloddrake Don't do it for the conscience of the planet. Do it so that human life may continue on this planet. If anything at all matters, wouldn't that be the first thing?

[GanaLaMana]

@aidanfox2022 The person in the video doesn't claim that you can't change the status quo. He claims that there is no right answer with civilization.

[GanaLaMana]

@Anomalous59 Please explain how the video is nonsense. I would love to hear your reasoning.

[MetalxXxMayhem]

That is NOT the definition of insanity. The definition is; Insane: In a state of mind that prevents normal perception, behavior, or social interaction; seriously mentally ill. Straight from google. SUCK IT!!

[allsmiles432]

Life on earth is dependant on how much it can gain from its surroundings.

Bacteria in a testube will keep on growing (exponentially) until they have absolutely no food left.

Humans' test tube is the earth. We are reaching our carrying capacity of the planet; we are stealing food, among other things, from the planet, consuming, and wasting it by dumping the excess in landfills. the earth can't keep giving endlessly. 6.9 BILLION humans on the planet. we will literally consume ourselves to death.

[vaguelyhumanoid]

We're running out of resources, peak oil and what have you, shit's gonna go down.

But what can we do?
