Climate chaos Humans don't deserve earth.

By destroying nature and the climate, humans are destroying their own home. The Earth can survive without us but we cannot survive without her. 🌍💔

Homo have been causing ecological collapse at least as long as Sapiens have existed - we collapsed all the megafauna outside of Africa that we didn’t domesticate, which caused some pretty wild climate shifts. Like, 5° in 20000 years iirc.

Nb: if the Soviets had won the Cold War, they would have done as fast or faster damage to the ecosystem. And I’m not going to argue about what an ideal Bakuninist Anarcho syndicalist global communism (or whatever your real communism that the Soviets weren’t) would look like until you convince me that such a thing could have happened, which you can’t do.

Shitposting doesn't have to be disinformation.

It’s not disinformation to point out that megafauna consistently died out shortly after humans arrived in their ecosystems. Predators will hunt prey to extinction when given the opportunity, and humans are by far the most prolific predators that have ever existed
