    It’s weird reading the responses talking about how much work it took to get humans fed. Folks, every other “lesser” creature on this planet has done it while finding balance. Humans are the outlier. We truly seem more like a sickness that’s infected an otherwise health host than an “intelligent” ape.

      I mean this in the nicest way possible, but those other creatures achieve balance with nature through continuous cycles of mass die offs or constant predation. I definitely agree that measures should be taken to make humans less of a burden on our ecosystem, but following examples of our local animal friends is not an attractive option.

        We sure are good at killing both huge numbers of humans and animals causing many of the mass die -offs you’re referencing…

        It might not be an attractive offer to you, but I don’t want to be here for 75 years as I decline both physically and mentally so some rich asshole can continue to pillage what’s left of who I am for a few more pennies.
