      How else are they supposed to assuage the feeling that they’re not some immortal magical beings living some divine simulation/game as the chosen ones players?

        Malthus was wrong about this too. It’s not the population that’s a problem, it’s miles of strip malls, filled with cheap trash, and meat and dairy every meal of the day.

            Okay? That doesn’t change the fact that it’s the lifestyle of people in rich countries, not the number of people that is the problem.
