Our cowardice in the face of the slow-burn societal and environmental decline. The fact that we had the numbers, but still allowed a very small percentage of rich people to destroy the world around us while we only focused on our individual wants.

Probably greed and ignoring the science behind climate change and ecological collapse

Knowing and not acting

Exploitation of earth's resources and ecosystems with a complete disregard for the future.

Killing half of the world's other species on our way out?

Probably the destruction of civilization.

Then nothing, as the generations pass and the wreckage of our civilization becomes a simple fact of life rather than a great tragedy.

gestures widely

The same people we blame the bronze age collapse.

"Our ancestors possessed wisdom that is lost to us now. This artifact is believed to have been used to distribute concentrated food pellets. They called it a 'PEZ.'"

Putting cheese in a spray can

Environmental pollution. All the different sorts of environmental pollution.

Landfills full of plastic garbage.

“This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here.

What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us.”

Hold on a sec while I go digging into the tickle trunk for my Gary Oldman "Everything!!" meme.

Idk but who's coming bunker busting with me?

I don't believe there will be future people.

Everything. Each generation does squat then blames the previous generation.

Everything, of course.

How far in the future are we talking? Far enough and this moment in time will essentially be totally lost to time.

Knowing well in advance that doom is coming and still not figuring out how to band together and stop it
