asmodeus quoted Mushroom by Nicholas P. Money
Listing one among the many thousands of mushrooms as critically endangered may encourage the idea that fungi are doing fine at a time of extraordinary threats to the survival of the more eye-catching animal species. This is a mistake. Like everything else in nature, mushrooms would be much better off today without us.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 wonderful ecofascism on the authors part. yes he goes into how humans are destroying the earth but the problem is capitalism et al not humans, which he refuses to acknowledge.
Humans are animals and belong on the earth just as much as bears, butterflies, and that annoying cockroach under your fridge. We do fucked up shit to the earth and each other but the solution is not worldwide genocide of ourselves. It's to dismantle capitalism and its associated practices.
I think if you advocate such a concept, you should put your money where your mouth is and kill yourself first.
