our ability to calculate that statistic is a product of the same neuroses that makes our unstoppable drive to consume the entire earth continue forward forever

no and this take is fucking insane. it's because we have an elder god of capital urging us towards collective suicide under threat of mass starvation is what's causing us to consume the earth. counting extinct insects is literally directly disincentivized by our current economic structure for the exact same fucking reason that structure is destroying everything with reckless abandon. hence why this useless fucking article disapproving of the practice was written. read theory or shut up (the unabomber's shitty ass manifesto doesn't count nor does Zerzan "the disabled dying is just how it has to be" PrimitivistMan)

many people spent millennia having access to rational thought without committing genocide, fix your angloid brain, murder isn't equivalent to "progress"

Now, that's unfair to anprims. Their theorists also include the illustrious Leslie Keith, whose claims to fame include making explicit transphobia a part of the movement and writing a book about how veganism is bad.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
