If humanity keeps having the choice of big harm or small harm, and tends towards the small harm, living beings will keep being harmed, on purpose and by conscious choice.
This is why I don't feel emotionally connected to being human. Humans are machines for making their human world worse, and sadly they bring along the other living beings they share the planet with as they do it.
When you mature out of highschool you'll understand why your comment is ridiculous.
A fascinating, but flawed, attempt to be relevant. I'll take your comment with me to the educational institution I teach at, which is an older age group than High School, and consider it in the light of the maturity of my students. I'm pretty sure we both know what I will find!
When we both die, will it be in a world which humans have made better? Or a world where humans oppress each other for personal gain? Because I know which world I live in right now, and it includes you being rude to people in order to feel better about yourself. As I said: you tend towards the small harm, and you keep harming people, and the world gets worse. I'm not interested, and I won't miss humanity when it ends.
Well then, I feel sorry for your students if this is the way you talk to them.
