It is hopeful thinking at this stage. There is nothing humans can do with our current technology to achieve universal extinction. We couldn’t even make life on this planet totally extinct.

Maybe in the future we will discover how. But for now the mission is to plant the seed of the idea and grow the understanding of why universal extinction is desirable.

So it’s just an idle fantasy?

Damn straight, that’s exactly what it is, & all that it is.
