Good. We are not doing enough yet. We should blow as much pollution into the air as quickly as possible. And spray as many chemicals on the earth and dump plastic into the oceans as we can.
The sooner we make this planet uninhabitable for human life, the sooner it can begin to regenerate for a future species that will do better.
Humanity, the disease, the parasite, must be completely eradicated.
Eco-fascism is cringe
Not really eco-fascism mor like eco-accelerationism
Same callous disregard for life.
Everything is "cringe" nowadays. Calling things cringe is cringe. nobody gives a shit.
Didn't ask tho
Neither did they?
I mean... I agree with you. That shit is cringe... but saying "Didn't ask" to someone who didn't ask either is pretty cringe too.
I didn't ask for their weird ass cringe opinion piece
Yes, I understand how publicly accessible social media works.
Saying "No one asked" in a public forum is the dumbest comeback someone can come up with. Do you not understand what Lemmy is? No one is asking anyone for opinions, but adding yours to a conversation is inviting others to add theirs...
You can always find a private instance and only interact with opinions you like.
Their precious economies can't survive beyond 2050. Damages from climate disasters will be big enough to make every economy shrink and make the Great Depression look like child's play.
Fiction fetishizes the “burn it all down and restart” mentality; but you could stretch imagination to a billion sentient species, even assuming they could ever exist, and I doubt any could make the change and progress humanity has.
It’s not even possible to duplicate the Industrial Revolution before, because the easily accessible fuel is no longer there.
How tf is a comment like this one which is basically on some ISIS-like kill everyone level beeing upvoted?
Because if there's one thing lemmy loves, it's intellectually lazy hyperbole.
Yeah, let's kill all humans and leave the Earth a smoking crater so nothing can ever grow here again. That'll really help the future life.
