  1. That's not quite correct. Humans have more biomass than wild mammals. The biomass of ALL WILD ANIMALS absolutely dwarfs humans. It includes insects, mollusks, crabs, etc.

  2. More of a delusion than a realization, and a terminal one at that. Dying of extinction is not a lifestyle, it's abject failure to function as an organism.

  3. The future looks bleak so let's die of extinction? No healthy mind holds such absurdly self-destructive beliefs.

  4. Because you are a disease..? Got it.

  5. Children are your retirement. Let that sink in. No children, no retirement. You work to feed yourself until the day you die. Sound good?

  6. What you don't seem to grasp is the necessary workforce to invent, construct, maintain, program, operate, decommission, and market automation. Robots don't build and sell themselves you know. The thing about high-tech industries like this is that they require a functioning economy! Ain't no-one got time to tinker with machines when there are more mouths to feed than ever yet fewer people doing anything including growing food. Simply put, automation is not a priority when human labor is in high demand but short supply. A slow population decline works the way you think. Collapse is absolutely catastrophic. Imagine old people piling up dead unless cared for.

  7. Your opinions are based on false facts. You say there's no increase in jobs. That's false. In the US, available job openings have doubled in 20 years while unemployment remains the same. Meanwhile, US population has doubled since 1950. If there's twice as many people, twice as many job openings, and the same unemployment, then clearly all those people did indeed find a job. Try again. You can't just take a concept like "robots manufacture stuff" and magically "take it to its logical conclusion". The world doesn't work that way. Things don't follow to their "logical conclusions", we live in an ecosystem. Automation is the pinnacle of that ecosystem. The incentive to work is encoded in retirement. People today are already taking far less care of their elderly than ever before. Old people die slowly, so you'll be seeing the effects of this also slowly.  @Aiphiae

  8. Total crap, the average household wastes insane amounts of money on stuff they don't need. Cut all the luxury and do the necessary thing for survival, morons.

  9. A lot less than no children at all.
