arguably, if we're talking about what's bad for the planet, you could easily just make the argument that humans are over populated due to our advances in science and engineering allowing us to both live longer, and protect ourselves from the various threats in the environment meant to keep is at a reasonable level of population.
Presumably, mother nature never intended for species to be consciously countering her very own playbook at every fucking turn possible.
Mother nature never intended anything because mother nature is just random chance and multiplication of the best fit
and we abused the mechanisms underlying that random chance in order to bypass the best fit line, like extremely aggressively.
We're essentially the worlds worst invasive species.
overpopulation is a fascist dogwhistle, just so you're aware
this is true, it's also a dog whistle for many other things.
This is a more philosophical consideration, rather than a political one though, mostly just a tidbit on how everything is relative and nothing actually matters lol.
