We're underrated on IIN. Everybody LOVES to hate themselves, it seems. Oh we're so cruel and evil and can't somebody kill off most of the population to save the trees and the orangutans because we're evil and parasitic and a cancer upon this world!?
We're AMAZING animals. We might not always get it right, but nature is chaotic, and perfection is an impossible aspiration. We should be happy to be what we are, and strive to be even better.
This seems to be an unpopular view. People prefer to be irrational or cynical. Pessimism is cool, apparently.
