#2 Comment: A Damn Toast to Eurovision, Sneakers and All Damn Fools
These last weeks, I have been a walking tornado.
It is not just about the Amazon disappearing, that 46 % of Romanians voted for a clown or starving children in Gaza. Not even the usual suspects—Putin and the Orange man in the White House.
No, it’s about everyone and everything. I should include myself in this rage, but right now I am not capable of any kind of introspection.
I have cared about humanity all my life. Sadly, I am surrounded by a preponderance of people who do not seem to care about anything except the Eurovision, trendy sneakers, and the cheapest flight to Gran Canaria.
Most people eat, breathe and die without having done anything but contributing to overpopulation, global warming, and making life worse for other creatures.
I have some questions for you.
What makes you think you are entitled to do that?
Furthermore, what will you do to compensate for all the harm you do?
For the vast majority of people, the answer would be “Nothing.”
Let this inconvenient truth sink in: Most people are not just a waste of space. They are a liability.
And if you belong to those who lie on the sofa night after night, munching empty entertainment, or those in the rat race for shallow status and cash they can spend on toys to impress other people with:
What makes you think you deserve any space on this precious planet?
Please consider joining Elon Musk’s colony on Mars.
Let this inconvenient truth sink in: Most people are not just a waste of space. They are a liability.
Right now, I don’t give a damn about any of you.
Perhaps I should just invest in some money laundering shell company and become rich and ruthless? I’ll buy up an enormous area of land and dedicate it to rewilding. The few people I can stand will be invited to ceaseless champagne in my garden of Eden. We’ll celebrate the return of wild salmon, popping another bottle by the babbling brook, not giving a toss about what happens in the outside world. “Don’t come to me and ask for help you damn fools.”
I’ll think about it.
One thing I can see clearly in this fog of fury: If we humans go extinct—at our own doing— it is because we deserve it (I actually managed to include myself in that sentence). Unfortunately, we will take many remote relatives with us in the fall.
And if aliens visit our beautiful planet thousands of years from now, slowly recovering from Homo sapiens’ gluttony, their conclusion will be: “In the whole of the universe, we have seen nothing as bad as this. These creatures called humans must have been the stupidest ever to have existed.”
I could not agree more while I head for a walk, focusing on the wildflowers and the birdsong, trying not to kill any humans with my blue laser stare.
Thanks for reading!
Let’s forget about the damn fools for a while and join me in a toast to everything worth living for.
SUPERB!!
