Who told you that Earth is human property?
You arrogant animal!
Is the World Worthy to Be Saved… By Us… From Us??
Is the world worthy to be conquered?
In the name of what, or whom?
Who gave us the world?
Who told us, humans, that the Earth is our property?
So vulgar. So contemptuous.
We are owners, not gardeners.
We are users, not keepers.
Who told you that?
Your God?
The same one with the Ten Commandments?
Wow.
Who told you to parcel the Earth, the waters, the sky?
Same God?
Wow. Wow!
Man, you’re a parasite, for now.
An impurity like stain in God’s perfect painting.
Who told you the universe is yours?
You don’t even have yourself.
How can you have the universe?
God is a walker, not an owner.
We are 8 billion.
And we can’t stop owning, exploiting, dividing.
Earth is free.
She does not need us to tell her what to do.
We are usurpers.
We took God’s uranium atom to make fission and bombs.
We did not build the cosmic equilibrium of the planets.
Why should we own it?
The impertinent idea that we can “own” the Earth
is the first sin of humanity against nature.
On the Scale of Time
If Earth’s age were 100 years,
that’s 3,155,760,000 seconds.
On that scale, we humans: parasites,
have been destroying it for the last 200 seconds.
That’s 3 minutes
versus a 100-year-old planet.
We’re not even the size of a grain of sand on a beach…
And for that reason alone,
we should revere this old planet we’re on.
We Arrived After the Ending
We are brief participants in a cosmic film.
We arrived after the ending,
and we’re watching the credits roll.
We are a bunch of apes.
Who told you you’re better than a tiger?
Or a fly?
We are part of nature,
a tiny, uncontrolled, multiplying parasite,
sucking and drying everything around us.
Our name is Apocalypse.
And like any parasite,
we are slowly killing our habitat.
But Some Will Argue...
Yeah, some of you will say:
“We’ll be fine.”
Yes...
but not while keeping Nature alive.
We’ll be fine like a Star Trek civilization
living in a totalitarian glass-and-steel spaceship.
A world that poisons the soul.
We humans need more than material nourishment.
We need spiritual nourishment, too.
And Earth is our mother.
Don’t kill her.
Because your mourning will never end.
The Entitlement of Anthropocentrism
And then there’s your last argument,
the fucking entitlement of anthropocentrism.
Just because white men could subjugate Black men
doesn’t mean they ever should have. Slavery is ugly business, for humans and nature too.
The same applies here.
Anthropocentrism is a small, pitiful view of the universe.
A despicable theory.
It comes with prejudice,
with oppressive chains,
and destruction.
We destroy every inch of nature
and preserve a few places like young virgins
for the entertainment of Epstein-list like clients.
The rest of us?
We can go fuck ourselves between concrete, soul-killing buildings,
breathing rats and mold and pain and drugs and wasted lives.
That’s what we keep nature for:
a weaponized fantasy.
A reward.
A lie.
Ahh, the yearly two-week vacation in the South...
Fifty shitty weeks in the dark
for two weeks of escapism under the sun.
This Has to Change
Humanity has “owned” nature
for all the wrong reasons.
And now we feed it back to people
like a slow IV drip,
a reward for good behavior.
This has to change.
Final Line
We must earn the honor of being human again,
by design and by purpose,
not as victims of history,
and not as a source of shame or apology.
