Just a reminder that it’s still February, people.

    What I know about humanity is that we spent the vast amount of our history as small bands of nomadic hunter-gatherers, so any prediction you make is based on a very tiny fraction of our history.

        The answer to the question is that civilization is an unnatural state for humanity to be in, so it is too unpredictable at present. And since there has never been a global civilization collapse, in part because there has never been a global threat like this and in part because the world has never been globalized like this, we are in completely unknown territory.

          You are the correct one here, I think tsonfeir is maybe trying to riddle you or something: the truth is at some point the sun will extend out beyond Earth and any civilization left here will die out, human or otherwise?

          Not sure why that is that interesting to them or why they are demanding you say it.
