    Our ancestors did not, generally, live in caves. We simply find the best-preserved remains in caves because caves aren’t subject to things like weather and erosion. Most humans, in fact, many pre-humans, probably lived in huts. And, as I already showed you, we already almost went extinct once.

    You really do not know what you are talking about here, especially because you seem to think species don’t go extinct. Over 99% of the species that have ever existed are now extinct. We are not special enough to avoid that indefinitely.

      Maybe humans go extinct, maybe they don’t, I never made any claims about it. But that your worrying makes no difference to nature and systems bigger than your individual control. I prescribe hope instead of gloom for reasons of self preservation.

        You sure implied we won’t go extinct:

        I’m still optimistic about humans doing alright in the long run, afterall we’ve survived so far and our ancestors have gone through much much worse.

        And sorry, telling me not to worry when I am over in the UK with my daughter to keep her safe from the queer genocide in America, but no job yet and slowly dwindling savings, and my wife is still over in the U.S. and I have no idea if I can bring her over and my daughter herself can only legally stay here for six months unless I make over £28,000 a year and I can’t get her the medication she needs over here, so I can only hope that my wife can get and send it in time… you don’t know shit about what I’m going through. If I didn’t worry about all of that, I wouldn’t have even left the U.S. to protect her.

          Hugs to you. I’ve migrated once but that was 2 decades ago. Now I have family & teenagers who I can’t up & move easily and who still look forward to a future in America. I worry too.
