    So, wait, is the idea that people should instead move to a gas giant and be inert matter instead? Surely looking at how tiny the available clump of resources we all share is would justify the struggle, not the other way around.

    I guess motivational memes are just as weird on all belief systems.

      It’s more highlighting how silly it is in the grand scheme of the universe (whether we are alone or not) that we as a civilization are constantly fighting amongst ourselves with how we want to believe we got here.

        Yeah, no, I get what they think they’re saying, it’s just pretty silly. Like telling malaria it’s riding on a massive sentient mound of flesh just trying to go about their day and expecting it to stop making people sick.
