Reply to comment by Zeniphyre in We should dismantle Mars, not colonize it. by [deleted]

I do acknowledge the reasons. Two. The first is we have grown beyond our cradle and evolutionary pressures demand we become an interplanetary species or perish. The second is that more than a few of us haven’t figured out that human life is in and of itself valuable, but that’s a sociological problem.

No, human life existing as a number is not valuable, and no, you do not acknowledge the reasons. We cannot even secure a stable existence for a large part of the population that we already have due to shortages in food, housing, power, etc. You cannot even fundamentally begin to grasp how our current population is obliterating other species and our environment and your argument is "dismantle Mars for resources".

You're going to live and die on this rock with no impact on the future. Throwing a hail mary at some nonsensical "we should have even more people but we should dismantle Mars" theory benefits nobody and refuses to address actual problems that are already here and at our doorstep.

There's nothing else to argue here. Your ideas benefit nobody and are entirely tone deaf to reality. They're entirely unfeasible and have zero grounding in reality. Your "I value life" grandstanding makes no sense when your argument is to expand a population that already cannot keep up with itself. You don't care for life. We have already obliterated countless species in the process of expanding. They do not matter because you care about numbers.

Here's a number for you. Your impact on the future of humanity is 0. Have fun with reality.

Your impact is negative. Enjoy being an evolutionary dead end and coming up with the lists of what kinds of people we need to start killing or castrating in order to produce your desired cull of our species.

Tell me, how many people do you need to kill before we’re not overpopulated any longer?

"Evolutionary dead end"

Buddy, I do not believe for one second, after seeing all of your comments here, that you are going to be spreading your gene pool to the future lmao. You're melodramatic and entirely self obsessed with your arguments. I doubt your social interactions are much different.

I was referring more to your self-destructive ideology. You say we’re a plague in another comment, one which indicates your illiteracy on our potential I might add. Look up what a K2 civilization’s population numbers could be if you want nightmares about 10^20 humans in one solar system alone. That is our destiny if fools like you don’t drag us down and shackle us to this insignificant mudball.

Can you stop typing like you're some genius because it's just goofy looking. Also again, you have no impact on this and I have the highest doubts you're ever procreating, so you're going out on this mud ball as a nobody.
