“This might shock you”

Really??? I expect more of HN than snark like this.

Argue in good faith and assume good faith, please.

I think trying to argue how many humans should exist based on something like “necessity” is pretty weird. Who gets to decide our necessity?

Humans aren’t “necessary” in some way that transcends philosophical argument and neither should we preserve other species according to such a metric.
