"The future looks somewhat difficult, better give up and go extinct"

Fortunately natural selection will remove this mindset eventually.

It's unfortunate that the species has to suffer it in the meantime.

I never suggested that we should give up.

It may just be that this group of people isn't up to the challenge and, like you said, natural selection is necessary to produce a group that is up to the challenge.

Unfortunately that selection may come too late and much of the ecosystem may suffer for it.

> maybe we as a species should die?

Sounds a lot like giving up to me.

Wishing for human extinction makes you an enemy of all mankind btw

No no no,

I'm saying that objectively maybe we should all die.

From a subjective perspective I'm going to keep fighting to the detriment of all the others around to the very bitter end and take down as many of them as I can, just like the real enemy of life that I am.
