Would anthropoch be better? Manflection point? Gympulse?

If the problem being identified is that science is bad at PR, I agree. Science communication, I love you; please stop being a self-fulfilling prophesy.

If the message is that human industrialization besides carbon emissions directly have obscured the discussion. Yes.

But this article kinda… does not tell you the thesis, it gives you the evidence for us to come to our own (proven and correct) conclusions. At… length.

I like it, but we should probably try to get new people who don’t already agree… maybe

I would like to have a word like Antropocrisis or Anthropoverflow which would be a collecting point for child-free arguments, because nowadays a declining of population is still considered as a negative event everywhere.

[Vecr]

It is a negative event. I see the sign of the exponential, and it's the wrong one.

[rob74]

Did you take a look at all those positive exponentials in the article? They're all a byproduct of exponential population growth, so any sign that that growth might be slowing down is a positive one in my book...

[Vecr]

I know what a sigmoid curve is, but I don't want to see where it bottoms out.

[eimrine]

Graphics in the article are clearly exponents and currently we can only hope they will turn into sigmoids before our death.

How about the Idiocracene. ^_^

[b33j0r]

We don’t _have_ to succumb to idiocracy. Just a reminder.

Our (royal we) actions to dumb down our UIs was probably immoral in the middle-game; if we wanted anyone to not just smash money buttons, based on feelings.

I was here. I get it

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean, and I really don't mean to be the language police, but I don't think "royal we" means what you intend it to mean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_we

IMHO anthropocalypse is most accurate. Though I use "oops" for brevity.
