Comments by "Curious Crow" (@CuriousCrow-mp4cx) on "Why Growth Is Stupid" video.
I get where your coming from, but cancer cells don't strive. Humans do. All the cancer cell has is damaged DNA, which has lost the chemical controls that govern the growth of a particular set of cells. The Cancer is the result of DNA failure. Our economic destruction is a malaise of a different kind. It's self-deceit and delusion of a kind that only sociopaths can square in their own minds. Capitalism is a human system, and so can never be perfect. But how it is practised is a conscious choice. As a species we need to choose differently, or suffer the consequences. Human beings are flawed creatures, who don't always remember their limitations and dependencies. We all suffer from shortsighted Ness in one way or another. Our evolution created brains that whose efficiencies create blind spots. And some people can only learn from failure. This why we need to step back and really look hard at the world we are creating. We're not masters of the universe. We're hairless apes that got lucky, and our luck is running out.
