    You really think that’s going to happen? Lmao. Yeah sure, and next we’ll have world peace and end poverty.

    Greedy, easily corruptable and prone to violent authoritarianism- describes like 85% of our species now and throughout recorded history.

    Stop nice-washing humanity and wake the fuck up. You’re not going to end capitalism, too many people benefit from it to let you.

      If we just give up, then there is a 0% chance. If we try, then the chance of succession isn’t zero. We have to try to be optimistic. Yes, the world is fucked, but hey, giving up is just accepting that and allowing it.
