Yeah, the planet will exist without humans but i think preserving the planet’s beauty for future generations is a worthy goal, no?
Or do you prefer the idea of future environmental dystopia?
- fastball 5y agoI definitely want to preserve the beauty for our offspring, but that isn't really in keeping with the statement "I sometimes hate humanity as a species." If you hate humanity then beauty is pointless, because humans are the only ones who appreciate beauty for beauty, rather than "beauty" just being an evolutionary signal to fuck.
- r00fus 5y agoHonestly I don't think many here subscribe to that extreme viewpoint you posted - it seems like a straw-man argument.
- fastball 5y agoGiven that I was responding directly to a comment that explicitly said "sometimes I hate humanity as a species", I obviously disagree with the straw-man characterization.
