Honestly?
Heat death of the universe.
Our biology is hardwired for tribalism.
This really. There are good people in the world, unfortunately the sociopaths and psychopaths tend to gravitate to positions of power, the few leading the many to extinction.
And the rest are DNA coded to go hard/wet over these strongman sociopaths that they can't help but want to please them and do their bidding . It's fucking sick.
You know, we do have the technology to change our biology.
If you can afford it. And those that can don't want to because they like how things are now, with everyone else's necks under their heels.
Well, sure, explosives and high levels of radiation tend to change biology... they also accelerate the heat death of the universe, so that's two birds with one missile, I guess? 🤷
Wait... how do explosives accelerate the heat death of the universe? 🤨
Twicefold. First, while manufacturing the explosive, we use some organized energy to arrange some stuff in an explosive form, with the expended energy turning into waste heat and increasing entropy. Then the explosive explodes, turning even more of the organized energy in the shape of chemical bonds, into heat, aka entropy.
Fusion bombs have the best conversion ratio from matter, which is the highest level of energy organization, into heat, which is the most entropic, with only some of the energy going into kinetic and radiation forms before also turning into waste heat.
Without explosives, it would take a tiny bit longer to convert that usable and organized energy into waste heat via other processes.
(the acceleration for the largest fusion bomb is likely on the order of less than 10-400, but it's something)
Neat! 📸
Oh the good ol’ “there’s nothing we can do”
Scratching your asshole is also hardwired, doesn’t mean we have to do it…
We don't?!??
I mean, not in public ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
