Lots of viruses don’t kill their host, and in return we dont try to eradicate those but they are casualties of an immune response, so the metaphor is still apt imo.

I feel like that would work in reference to a Liberal Party like you find in parts of Europe and Australia, but the word Liberal alone just doesn’t work here.

Um, akshually, there would still be lots of burning things for heat and livestock. Livestock are the majority of all mammals on earth, outnumbering humans by a lot, only 6% of mammals are wild animals. In addition, lack of preserved food would lead to higher consumption.

BUT it being so unsustainable and full of disease would mean it would rapidly decrease populations, which would decrease ecological impact after a couple of generations, so it’s a sound strategy longterm.

I don’t get the joke. Luigi went to an Ivy League school, he had two degrees and a cushy tech job.
