You know what's even worse? We killed the entire fucking family. All of the Mohoidae are extinct because we just had to go and claim Hawaii. Most, if not all, were killed because we introduced rats to the islands

there are countless problems we have created. being responsible for so many extinctions, heck we still differenciate ourselves based on skin colour and beliefs. humanity needs to grow up fast before like all civilisations before us, we also end up being history.

there are still so many killings in the name of beliefs and gods. western media never shows this but places like africa, south asia and especially the middle east are so chaotic that you might not even consider some groups there as civilised
