> It always felt very… I dunno, ignorant of our own ability to maybe not do something? It would be ignorant to discard that it is exactly what has always happened throughout history. Otherwise the myth of Daedalus and Icarus wouldn't be immortal. > but the real problem is that people in power just choose to ignore it for their own short-sighted gain you can find it in most of the so called "hard sci-fi". The usual names: Asimov, Herbert, Clarke, Crichton etc I wouldn't qualify "Don't look up" as sci-fi honestly, it's basically not-even-so-good comedy.
