The world, a couple hundred years ago: Our world is everlasting.
You seem proud of our current predicament.
There have been huge technical advances. Incredible progress.
But equally huge destruction and incredible externalities.
You seem to enjoy fireworks.
- nickpp 6y agoThe world, a couple hundred of years ago: overpopulation will starve us all. Pessimists have been historically wrong. I consciously choose to be an (prudent) optimist.
- TLightful 6y agoI think the truth depends on your timeframe. I'm a frustrated optimist, if that helps.
- nix23 6y agoYou mix completely different arguments just to justify that you are right. >The world, a couple hundred years ago: Our world is everlasting. No one ever said that...not even the bible ;) >There have been huge technical advances. Incredible progress. >But equally huge destruction and incredible externalities. That like saing Aircraft's are incredible but they make pollution...it says absolutely nothing. >You seem to enjoy fireworks. An you seem enjoying wasting energy for nothing...not even a beautiful firework.
