Doesn't matter, I'd be dead before the world ends. - some asshole probably.
literally an entire generation of them
Just about the entire ruling class who refuse to give up power and retire.
FYI reincarnation exists. We're all fucked.
At least we can live in the real life set of Mad Max, which may be pretty cool for 5 min

Woopty doo. As if anyone should ever give a fuck about what some random thinks about reincarnation. He isn’t an authority on any subject.
Show me the science. If you can’t then that’s more then enough for me to say you’re all full of shit.
Many spiritual movements.
For a more modern assessment, have a look at Mark Viber's audio series "Where is my mind"
There is evidence that NDEs are real, the conclusion being that one's clnsdio9can leave the body.
Past live experiences have strong evidence.
Have a listen to the podcast and make up your own mind.
Hell no. Show me the science. Prove it.
Problem is you can’t. Your pod cast isn’t proof. It’s just someone giving you some janky opinion and you gobble it up.
You haven't heard it yet you judge.
I don't care whether you, an anonymous person ?though you may be a bot) believes in it or not.
As a medical doctor I was a total akeptic until I looked at the evidence with an open mind.
Good luck with your closed minded attitude in life.
Thanks. Good luck with your religion. It’s always worked out so well for you folks.
The podcast I referenced gave evidence.
If you're to closed minded to listen to it that's your loss.
And, no, it's not a religion lol
Ya huge loss. I think I’ll manage to get by.
I am one of these "assholes". Explain to me why I should care. Don't want kids, don't have much influence in what is gonna happen, just wanna enjoy the time I have on this planet. Don't think this population growth is sustainable in any scenario, and humankind would do better with a few billion fewer.
Fatalism is not gonna change a thing except making your experience on Earth less enjoyable. Turn off the news, live a good life, otherwise you will regret it.
You can have a healthy dose of both being informed and practicing self care. Being empathetic is also a good thing, actually.
Exactly this, because there is literally fuck all any of us can do to change this. Climate change is largely the result of a couple hundred mega corporations, not the masses choosing plastic drinking straws.
Downvoted but right. Average people did play a part of this though. The part we played was supporting the big businesses that were fucking us over. Oh, a new sports car even though my old one works fine? COOL. Give me that, I'll pay whatever you ask.
Excess. We live a life of excess. They provide it, we accept.
Unfortunately people are greedy and material oriented. Even the good people have so much excess. They don't think twice to see anything wrong with it. Everyone driving brand new cars to keep up with the "Joneses" played a big part. This never should have been a thing. Vehicles should've been for transport and nothing else, vanity should have never been a factor but.. people.
Same with fashion. Never should've been a thing. Clothes are for covering your body. Never should've mattered so much how we look. Again, vanity.
Makeup. Same story. People want to look a certain way so resources are obtained, money is spent, excess is gained. Vanity satiated.
Sports stadiums? Malls filled with bs no one needs?
Wants vs needs. People don't know how to separate the two anymore.
Even those that claim to. Often especially not those people.
Excess. So much excess.
My area used to be filled with farms. All you'd see is trees and farms.
They sustained themselves. Grew their own food, mowed their own grass, usually had a creek for water etc. Self sustainable and produced an abundance of food.
Now the entire fucking area is just.. businesses to provide the excess. No need to rely on ourselves anymore. The corporations got our back right? Bought up all the land and replaced farms that could feed hundreds with... A smoke shop. Grocery stores everywhere. People aren't growing their food anymore, they've got corporations to do that for them as long as they work for the corporations enough to earn the funds.
It's so fucked up. I miss the trees, miss nature. It amazes me that people aren't outraged and protesting this. They're turning my entire region into a massive strip mall and the people are...
Okay with it because it provides the excess.
Okay with it because they lost touch with nature long ago and can't fathom the value of it.
We've traded self sufficiency for reliance on corporations.
We've traded strength for dependency.
We've traded church for Twitter.
Clean water for fluoride laced tap water.
Roaming buffalo for cars.
It's fucked up. Everything is fucked up.
We just don't know it yet because our needs are met and then some
