          To quote Carlin, “The earth doesn’t share our prejudice against plastic… The planet is fine. The people are fucked.”

            Humans are animals, which are a part of the environment. The major cause of human and environmental collapse is a bunch of rich pieces of shit upholding a cruel, unsustainable system and leading you to believe that’s just ‘human nature’ & how things are and have always been.

              yeah I mean this is essentially what I wanted to express here. Being an ecofascist makes no sense because you’d essentially be killing all the humans to protect the humans.

          … and humans are also needed by a lot of domestic animals and plants. So it seems more comple… No it’s not, it’s capitalism. Kill capitalism, not beings

            I love this! Here I’m understanding how a minimal mind works 🥰 Thanks for introducing me to the “outskirts” of using the brain, it’s great to get stuff!

            Correct, but we also have a disproportionate effect on the rest of nature.

            Like yes, cancer is human cells, but that doesn’t diminish the damage they do to the rest of the human cells.

        More importantly, it kills them when they’re old and already contributed most of their pollution and the cancer care also wastes lots of plastic and resources.

          Cancer care doesn’t cause nearly as much waste and resources as elder care does, though. Smokers benefit the system because they die a decade or two early.

            Money yes, but they’ve already reproduced and had most of their carbon emissions by that point. That’s a different metric.
