    Being a realist isn’t doomerism. Recognizing that climate change is happening far faster than predicted isn’t doomerism. Wanting oil executives to hang definitely isn’t part of their plan.

      The planet is correcting an imbalance.

      This is doomerism, and I don’t believe that you don’t understand that.

        I’m more of a human extinctionist than a doomer. I think humans should go extinct to save the rest of life on earth, as humanity is equivalent to a super volcano or meteor strike in terms of how many species we eradicate daily.

          Oh okay, so your doomerism is fine because you have a fancy name for it and you actually want it to happen?

          How fucking gullible do you think I must be to say that with a straight face. Wow.

              I don’t know, if you want to effectively enact your plan to destroy humanity, you might want to work on being persuasive to get others to help you destroy humanity. As it is, you sound like a silly edgelord who can’t keep their story straight, not the credible threat to humanity you say you want to be.

              You know who is a credible threat to humanity that you could count on as an ally? Billionaires and fossil fuel companies. They’re doing an awful lot to destroy the ecosystems of this planet, which is presumably the reason you want to destroy humanity, and the thing most likely to destroy humanity. I think you should really reevaluate whether or not you want to help them help you destroy humanity.

              But when you’re destroying humanity, please make sure you always insist that destroying humanity doesn’t make you a doomer, because you like destroying humanity. I find when I’m trying to destroy humanity, the most important thing is branding.

              That, and destroying humanity.

                I don’t have a plan to destroy humanity. I’m an extinctionist not a super villain. I got a vasectomy. My job is done.

                Let me know when you’re done with neoliberalism and want socialism.

                  Socialism? What happened to “Death to humanity”? What the fuck are you talking about? Do you have a coherent thought in your head or is this just a firehose of disinformation situation? What part of literally anything I’ve said makes you think I’m a neoliberal? I am FASCINATED to understand where those three thoughts came from, if anywhere at all.

                    First of all, calm down.

                    Secondly, I replied before I fully woke up and got a bit ahead of myself. Neoliberalism is the default political alignment of modern democracies. I think it’s the reason America is sleepwalking into fascism.

                    I was a socialist before I was radicalized to be an extinctionist.
