And what makes them being "stupid" and "greedy"?
One's intelligence is determined by genes, and greediness is a trait that natural selection has favored for millennia. This is just natural selection taking its course, and it might lead to our end.
If you want to blame something, blame math. Math has determined the physical constants and equations that determine the chemistry and ultimately biology laws that has resulted in humans being the way they are.
No, it’s because it shows either a simplistic or needlessly confrontational view of the world.
Unless you’re independently wealthy (as some in HN are), you have to balance your morals, your views of how things should work, feeding your family, and recognizing that you may not actually know everything.
It’s easy to sit back and advise others that they should die on every single hill. But it’s not especially insightful, and serves mostly to signal piety rather than a well thought out view.
