What's your view on humanity?

Humans are shit. They're weak, greedy, emotional, and often irrational. With that said, I believe in the potential of humanity. Sure, most of the race is just a bunch of idiots, but we've been to the moon and back. We have put machines on mars. Humans have the potential to do some amazing things, however, humans can be infinitely foolish or infinitely great.

They are kinda op. Maybe nerf tanks a bit, Undead and Night Elf have a hard time dealing with them.

"I love Humanity but I hate humans"

-Albert Einstein

Also if we’re talking about Christianity, believe what you want, but if you’re telling me there’s this benevolent all seeing all knowing god, and he created this planet as it is with these people and their varied life experience? As far as I’m concerned the guy does not DESERVE my devotion, cause he’s terrible at his job.

If god was an asshole who don’t give a fuck it’d be one thing, but I’m supposed to believe that this level of incompetence that rivals bronze league in lol is the result of a GOOD god that CARES? Bullshit.

Hey guys,

Lots of religious comments here. Let's try to steer away from that and stick to talking about humanity.

I don't think humanity is special in any way except for being the dominant species of the planet. Science and technology is a direct consequence/cause of that.

Any behavioural traits are simply due to an evolutionary advantage - being in a group is much better than alone.

What's your view on humanity?

Worse, as a result of this thread.

I hate it.

I hate how my humanity is basically dictated by a capitalist system, in which even though I may choose something that may feel fulfilling, it is ultimately soul-crushing, because you spend 50+ years doing it just as means of survival.

as a whole, it's pretty interesting, but as an individual, it's pretty boring, and the only way to keep it interesting, it seems, is by being selfish, which is its problem. idk if it's an answer anyone can agree with, but it's all i got.

We are all different. Each and everyone of us.

Thinking we are all the same is just stupid ignorant hippie talk.

Accepting the differences in everyone is much more kind than believing we are all the same!

We're all aight.

If I was to complain I'd just kill myself because I am a human.

We are so smart that we are dumb.

We are capable of creating weapons...to kill eachother with.

We have science and history, so we can analyze and learn from past experiences... to make the same mistake again.

I may be being a bit pessimistic, but WOW are we monsters to every living creatures besides whatever we keep as pets.

“We are all controlled by the world in which we live, and part of the world has been and will be constructed by men. The question is this: Are we to be controlled by accident, by tyrants, or by ourselves in effective cultural design?” —B. F. SKINNER

Ultimately we are the product of the society around us, but how we decide to behave will construe how society as a whole will operate, which will in turn influence others viewing this society to do the same. The decision to act is most prominently found when we are at a crossroads of deciding to make a self-forming choice or action. They build character, and determine who we are as a being. These choices are ultimately undetermined though they are influenced by past big decisions. We unconsciously use these crossroad decisions to dictate our everyday actions. This soft deterministic view means that our actions down the road are already set in stone since the choices we make today effect the ones tomorrow, and the day after will have both of those influences, and so on.

Humanity is what we are, and we decide who we are. The choices we make today will have a butterfly effect both on ourselves and ultimately all of humanity.
