    It’s impossible not to sound condescending when talking to someone who’s just making stuff up and claiming that it’s a plausible assertion.

    You’re not being realistic, you’re being dramatic.

    Human extinction is not a realistic nor likely outcome to the problems humanity presently faces.

    Even in the worst projections for climate change, some areas of the globe will still be able to support life.

      Alright. I’m sorry to have annoyed you. I was just hoping for a discussion.

      We have a difference of opinion and that’s alright. My concerns surrounding the Holocene extinction event triggering total ecosystem collapse need not be yours.

      I’m a human behind a screen, just like you. It’s free to be kind to people, even when you disagree with them.
