Humanity

[smokingboot]

The day started so fair, and then I read this, from semyaza. Apparently the Siberian tiger could not be saved. This page talks about showing humanity to animals. Humanity! Tell you what, zoos do two things. They entertain 'humanity' and some of them preserve animals in danger because of 'humanity.'


We don't need more humanity. We need less humans. Less wombwailing, less fannyfocus, less penispleading, more minds being used to preserve the planet. No, not wishing on a deferred gene genius who's going to one day emerge from our sacred uglies and justify us as parents of the messiah, I tell you it is not going to happen. If we do not fix it, be assured our kids won't. They will be no better than us. Our brains, yours and mine, the ones working today, will fix this. Or there will be more.

For those who say 'They are only animals,' remember we're all animals to someone.

We need more humanity, but fewer humans, I'd say.

There's nearly 7bn of us, now. That's about 5bn too many.

I think you are entirely correct.
