I dunno if I'd say humanity is suicidal. I'd say we're more like those morbidly obese people on My 600 Life who are eating themselves to death. We are slowly killing ourselves with our behaviours and choices but not with the intent to do so. We are either too lazy, unmotivated, depressed, hopeless, selfish, or apathetic to care or make changes, so humanity will just keep "eating" ourselves to death with our polluting and consumerism etc (killing the planet and ourselves in the process).

I remember when you'd get ripped apart and down voted to hell for daring to use an emoji on Reddit when commenting. People hated it. Then one day it was fine to do it, no one cared anymore. I guess that's around when Reddit became mainstream, maybe.

I agree. Never understood why it was seen as a bad thing to respond to older comments or posts. Especially if you have something useful or good to contribute like the person above did.

William Gunn Shepard, a reporter at the tragedy, would say that "I learned a new sound that day, a sound more horrible than description can picture – the thud of a speeding living body on a stone sidewalk"

Jesus Christ. Read the Wikipedia article about that fire. Those poor people.

I can't talk fellowship to you who are gathered here. Too much blood has been spilled. I know from my experience it is up to the working people to save themselves. The only way they can save themselves is by a strong working-class movement.
