Would you kill every sparrow to save one human?

    This is very shorthand for humans are above nature. It leads to the conclusion that human needs supercede anything else on this planet. Also, Matt Walsh is a nazi if you are lucky enough to not know who he is.

    Predator that wipes out all their prey and then can't sustain themselves is one of the most common extinction stories. If you exceed the limits of the ecosystem you'll just die out, simple as that. Nature doesn't give a shit how much you think you're harming it because it's a mindless convergent system that will always optimise away abnormalities and find an equilibrium, with or without you.

    Well now I have one of my favorite songs stuck in my head:

    I think I'm so educated And I'm so civilized 'Cause I'm a strict vegetarian And with the over population And inflation and starvation And the crazy politicians I don't feel safe in this world no more I don't want to die in a nuclear war I want to sail away to a distant shore And make like an apeman

    I would say most apes are more important and smarter than republicans. That’s a very simple concept folks!

    Humans are apes... This is like "I'd kill every bird in the world to save one parrot"

    "Why does someone always have to die in these scenarios?"

    People with this mentality decrease the overall fitness of our species.

    Gold is more valuable than silver. Give me all of the silver for this piece of gold.

  • But you wouldn't save that human, as you just killed them all (including himself.) I guess he would only save people in space?

    Who the fuck is Matt Walsh and why would anyone care what they think?

    Ah, ok. He’s some dude with a beard and a podcast. Very qualified.

    Would you kill one ape to suck every human's dick?
