This thread is following: > I really feel humans think they change way more than they do. Which was a response to me saying that humans make the conditions worse for all species. It is literally denial of our responsibility in the climate change and current mass extinction. The author of that comment also said: "Let me be clear: the climate IS changing, I just doubt that it's mostly caused, or potentially solved by, human behavior", which is explicit denial. You came to defend that point by saying "Ah, the classic “Anyone smart thinks exactly like I do, so you must be dumb"". So my answer is explaining to you how I don't think this is the classic "anyone smart thinks exactly like I do so you must be dumb". Maybe you are not clear with the position you were defending?

  Denying that we make the conditions worse for other species, in a context where we explicitly talk about biodiversity loss and climate change, is not reasonable. It's denial.
