    I would be very glad if it was something only destructive to humans, and not the planet(s ecosystems).

      Not all humans are bad and destructive, nor is the collective human race universally destructive. We have saved species from extinction and made great strides to protect ecosystems. Don’t damn the lot of us for the crimes of the worst of us.

      The dowvotes signal a trend against misanthropy, which is the only logical conclusion.

      Let me test this theory: We are a virus. An STD that is always lethal and should be eradicated for the planet’s good.

      But also let me quote Dostoyevsky to end my point positively:

      “I have seen the truth; I have seen and I know that people can be beautiful and happy. … I will not and cannot believe that evil is the normal condition of mankind.”
