Maybe we should just start nuking the most densely packed cities/countries. Sorry NYC, Tokyo, and basically all of India.
But would this not solve the problem?
No, the reason we want to stop global warming is to prevent the death of 2/3 of all humans.
The thing is that that’s an extremely fucked up and evil thing to do
I’ll say. Even Thanos only wanted to kill HALF the population.
Well, I was going to say just kill ALL the humans, but then I thought people would get mad that I’m killing all the humans. So I said 2/3rds.
Need to up those numbers to 111% of the Humans
I know the name of the community is “no stupid questions”, but you managed to power through somehow anyway
An excellent trolling if ever I’ve seen one
🧌
i have observed that many people interpret the community title as a dare
If I’m really honest I often feel that way about the questions here. I suspect that most of us are here just to gawk at how truly stupid some of us are.
Nice try, ChatGPT
I almost hesitate to bring up the other problems with your plan since, obviously the total monstrosity of it. But that’s anyway pretty well covered so I’ll just throw in that blowing enough nukes to kill that many people would create considerably worse environmental disaster
But if enough were detonated, would it create a nuclear winter thereby offsetting the warming trend?
Logically, killing humans would be way down on the list of potential Global Warming solutions. We would have to exhaust all other methods first. Just banning private vehicles would save a few billion from extermination. Green energy tech and Nuclear power would save more. Vegetarian diets even more. Reducing organic waste, involuntary birth control, carbon sequestration - it’s a long list of better incremental solutions. They may be more costly than extermination, but they’re infinitely more ethical. It’s only logical if that’s the sole solution that ensures some of the population survives. We’re a long way from that condition.
“… involuntary birth control …”
We are the only two contributors here rising this topic. How do you see it ?
Please also read my root comment.I see it as one possibility of many. Measures currently employed are limited because most countries are democratic, where politicians must appease the people to stay in office. China could implement one-child because they are a de-facto dictatorship.
Bill Burr said we should start sinking cruise ships.
If people who hunt with population control as the excuse were logically consistent then they’d say yes
The problem to this solution is who chooses the humans. The only moral way would be to accept volunteers.
Or to start with the wealthiest people and biggest corporations.
Thats easy. Smokers. They die first. If they are willing to accept that they’re using products that give people cancer, they die first.
I didn’t agree to smoke cigerettes. Or vapes. Or cigars. Yet I have to smell cigerettes everyday, because they don’t care if they give you cancer.
First to die.
That’s easy. People who wish others to die. They die first. If they are willing to accept sacrificing others, they die first.
I didn’t agree to die. Or to be killed. Or murdered. Yet I have to be executed all the same, because they don’t care if you die or not.
First to die.
Calm down Thanos.
Username checks out.
Covid tried. Eventually the earth will win.
OP convenient that your living location isn’t on the list. Maybe start looking inward? If you remove 2/3 of your mass you’d be doing your part, right?
oh 2/3s will die just not by humanity hands directly. heat, extreme weather, more pandemics. it’s all coming earth will get it’s payment in blood.
