What would you do

[krutoi]

I would change how the world works right now. All should at least have bread and water to survive, from that point they could of do whatever they please, work for money, work to get their houses, and so on. I think I am not the only one who would do that if we ever had the chances to.

 

I'd swap mine and someone rich's bank contents

Everything.

It's subjective to your definition largely, but yes. We fight over the most nonsensical things. We often react with emotional hysterics instead of thinking things through, we take great amusement from comedy (also known as tragedy) at the expense of others, as well as things that generally represent killing and unnecessary violence (majority of the videogame market). We think we have the right to decide what is moral and what isn't - a concept entirely subjective to each and every person - which subsequently causes us to fight each other when we're different - sometimes resulting in war. We're arguably ingenious to an extent, sure, but we're very strange, selfish beings if you look at it objectively.

I figured the words "retarded and destructive" could some that up quite well.

Just because we are sentient, or can engineer new forms of technology does not make us the greatest thing ever. We're out of touch with nature and upset balance, ecosystems, etc. for our own personal benefit and gain. Most people may not want to consciously destroy, but they're certainly willing to ignore the impact they have for the sake of maintaining convenience.

I agree that humans are out of sync with the rest of nature, but that does not make us evil or destructive. Look at some other species, they rape, steal, and kill just to get a mate. Yes humans do all of that as well, but your making it seem like humans are the only species that have something wrong with them. No species is perfect, and tbh, it's impossible to be. If you think humans are evil and destroy everything that's your own opinion. But just look at other species and see how wicked some of them are before you make it seem like humans are terrible.
