It's so weird, in movies there's always the villain going out of their way trying to "destroy the world" and it seems so far fetched - and now I'm talking to on

- renewiltord 6y agoHahaha! I am flattered. But, like all the villains in the movies, I don't see myself as the bad guy. You're trying to screw me out of my share while clearly not contributing your share, and I have access to a slow WMD you can't stop. That's just bad negotiating on your part. You can: 1. Try to disarm me, but you are unable. 2. Try to not screw me, and it'll be fine. 3. Do your bit, and it'll be fine. Listen, what that will look like is that the US+Europe has to reduce carbon emissions some 75% for a few decades and India+Brazil+developing_nations get to boost theirs to 250% for a few decades. Then we will all have emitted the same carbon into the atmosphere and the playing field is leveled. Fair. Equitable. Unachievable only because you don't want to be fair or equitable.
- glogla 6y agoBy that time, it will be too late to save even remnants of humanity. But your line of reasoning perfectly shows that it fine - humanity going extinct is a good thing. The universe is better off without the like of us.
- renewiltord 6y agoHaha no. Realistic worst case predictions are 1E8 deaths. We're at 1E10 population. Humanity will endure.
