I unfortunately don’t have any sources, but a few years ago I read or watched a video about an interview with a paleontologist who was asked about their opinion of the first sign of civilization
Their answer was “a fossil of a skeleton with a broken and healed leg”
Every other animal dies with a broken leg in nature, the only way to survive is with the support of others
FYI your link isn’t showing up (I only knew it existed because I saw the markdown when trying to reply) so nobody knows you’re backing up your claim!
Wait so he started with the guy behind the window glass and moved on to the butterfly??

I want a comic about a friendly android who finds humor in spooking humans with red eyes (and other things).
The fuck are you on? “Destroy” stone? There is a vast gulf of difference between altering something, including in creative and constructive ways, and “destruction.” Most of us know the difference today and our ancestors certainly knew the difference. Human labor is in general a constructive force even if it can be used to destructive ends. Saying that “our willingness to destroy is the trait that powered our rise” is ahistorical nonsense and anti-human drivel. But it sounds an awful lot like the lying justifications the small subset of the current ruling class likes to use as an excuse and justification to exploit us and actually destroy our environment for the sake of their own narrow profit and greed. But that’s no more of a universal human trait than any other disgusting pathology that a select few are afflicted with.
This is an extreme response to what I think amounts to a “shower thought”. Bringing the ruling class into it… I don’t get it.

The idea that humans and human progress are inherently destructive is a lie told by the ruling class because getting people to believe it benefits them. Among other things it absolves them of their own crimes of destruction while simultaneously blaming the rest of us and our positive traits for those crimes. Somewhat ironically it’s a lie that helps lead to more destruction. See my other response to u/Sagittari.
4/10. The immediate extreme response is a solid opener. I do like how you bring the entire fediverse into it which could broaden the appeal. However this is much too short and not nearly unhinged enough for a good copy pasta. Sentence structure is too proper, too. Maybe try some good run ons, add at least two more paragraphs, and include completely irrelevant topics with no attempt to link it to what you’re replying to. I’m proud of how well you do and think you can go places with some practice
Calm down bro 😭 it’s a reasonable thing to point out when presented with “Our ability to destroy is the trait that has powered our rise”
Maybe could’ve done without the “The fuck are you on?” though I guess
