You want humans to go extinct? OK, you first.

Taking a longer term view: I’ll be dead within 60 years and am not having children, so I guess I’m helping us go extinct.

If there was a way to guarantee that you would also go, I would do it.

What do you value, if not human life? What ethical system can possibly sustain this viewpoint?

This is appalling.

This is standard brinksmanship.

This is also the plot of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six.
