misanthropy itself is a memetic virus upon the world. misanthropists actively downplay human achievements and exaggerate human mistakes due to a universal prejudice they feel towards their fellow humans, seeing themselves and others as bad because we can and have harmed the planet.
from a theological point this is just handicapped for multiple reasons, and from an atheist standpoint it's arbitrary and cherrypicked hatred. why are human things unnatural? construction and whatnot is in our nature- it's what we evolved the ability to do. we have weak jaws, deformed sinuses, entirely helpless infants, and unhealthy mothers all because of how valuable our big brains are. humans aren't the only thing that make animals and plants go extinct. the border between natural and unnatural is artificial and born of adolescent nihilism and religious dogma. wild animals are not innocent martyrs. they are objectively barbarous in comparison to human society.
so what if we hurt the earth? we're paying the price, and that's all there is to it. the earth is not an intelligent lifeform that demands respect and TLC. we're going to fix it one way or another, because we have to. it's our home (for now).
