Like, we’re destroying the one place we know is a sure bet on where we can prosper if we keep it healthy, but instead the world’s richest man is trying to expand to other planets while this one’s ability to sustain life is in jeopardy. IMO that makes us potentially a very stupid species compared to a species that doesn’t really care about meeting other aliens because they value the life on their own planet far more than we do.
I agree with most points except not wanting the human race to survive.
I very much want the human race to survive but to do it in a way that isn’t destructive to our planet. Which IS possible.
I think the great filter is more likely a hyper individualistic mindset that creates a “well I lived so why do I care if other lives after me?” Mindset.
You’re line of thinking mixed with access to nuclear weapons destroys us all. And that’s very likely what will end up happening.
We should all want humans to survive as long as possible BUT be working towards a way that we can do that without being destructive.
Ultimately though yes the end is certain as they say. Heat death of universe and all that (if that’s even what happens, no physicist I know of has been consciously there when its happened and able to report back)
But yes. All life animals, plants, humans and otherwise should be kept alive it really is our duty as intelligent beings to facilitate that.
