people will sometimes say that there should be a plague or an epidemic to get rid of portions of the human population so that less waste and pollution will come into the environment, so climate change will slow down, or something.

aside from being incredibly cruel and morbid and fucked up and hateful, spiteful, bitter, and absolutely wretched, this idea also makes No God Damn Sense.

who do you think that the epidemic would kill off? the rich? the corrupt? the people who are causing climate change and environmental issues in the first place?

No. Mother Nature doesn’t pick favorites like that.

so you want an epidemic - you want innocent people to die? you want to kill off our women and children? you wanna kill off our artists and scientists? you wanna get rid of people who couldn’t afford a cure or treatment even if there was one? you wanna kill off the ecologists and biologists and scientists and activists who are trying to FIX this mess? wanna decrease the “””surplus population””””? wanna kill off “”””the plague on the Earth””””””” - us?

if you actually cared about the planet and the human race you wouldn’t be spewing out these sick fantasies.

you’d know that a mass illness wouldn’t do us any favors.

you’d also know that the wealthy and corrupt people who are investing in oil and fracking and the destruction of palm forest and the whole planet - ARE WEALTHY. they’d have the money and the resources to outlast the epidemic, while still wreaking havoc on the environment.

this disgusting dream of yours isn’t going to solve anything.

use your brain, you monsters.
