    If you don’t see an American and eventually global reset as a good thing, you’re part of the problem.

      How to tell everyone you live a sheltered, privileged life protected from starvation and strife. If you imagine a “global reset” as some nice, equality-bringing thing you’re incredibly naive.

          Humanity is not the problem, this system is. Capitalism is a plague, we’ve been infected. The cure is not to kill all of the infected. I get where you’re coming from tho.

          Humans have been beneficial actors in ecology for millenia. This abberstion we’re living through must end. A powerful and benefitial humanity woild be better for the ecological health of the earth.

            I disagree. Humans have been a net negative force since before agriculture. How many megafauna did we hunt to extinction so that we could spread?

              We may all have the potential to become Wendigo but that’s not all we are. It’s not all that we have been either. Braiding Sweetgrass is an interesting book on this subject. You can probably find a copy at a library if you’d like an in depth perspective from an indigenous person.

                We have caused a 6th mass extinction event. We are comparable to a meteor capable of almost sterilizing the planet, or a super volcano altering time on a geological scale. I pray we burn ourselves out before we can spread to other planets.
