    We don’t have, oh, cats that can breathe underwater or something like that in 2026.

    If we had that, I’d be a major extinction event for a lot of fish species, causing food shortages for humans and famines around the globe.

      And so these humans would…be willing to do much to avoid the unchaining of these aquatic cats, you say?

        I would welcome our new feline overlords. Humanity has done enough fucked up shit to deserve extinction.
