autism as a genetic defense mechanism against increasing generalized environmental trauma.

autism as a genetic defense mechanism against increasing generalized environmental trauma.
Over millions and billions of years, each individual ecosystem developed an equilibrium in which specific distributions of mass allowed for the optimal continuation of life.
This distribution is quantifiable for any given ecosystem, and ideally, we'd find it and distribute mass accordingly.

Or we could let *nature* decide.
If wild native trees were there in the past, and seed themselves back in with the removal of sheep, who are we to say there's a problem?

Sheep may well be part of the problem, but trees are only a solution on mineral soils. On deep peat you need appropriate vegetation.

I'm gonna write a book called 'Why the SuperAI Will Speedrun Biology, and That's Great' and it will be better because I'm not confused by the machinations of failed systems.
Jesus this book is tedious. The authors like to explain everything through little made up fables and fictional dialog between anthropomorphized characters. Just skipping page after page of nonsense writing.

Add it to the list of evidence that autism is actually a natural evolutionary response to general trauma.
Is this what it will take for expectant minimizer parents to finally start caring about preventing COVID?

Unfortunately, I think this has more to do with cognitive and emotional limits that apply to the majority than it does with conscious apathy.
Many of them are literally not capable of processing that sort of information because it's too abstract.

Babies are supposed to learn object permanence by the time they’re 1. But clearly millions of Americans never did. They think if they don’t vote or watch the news politics can’t impact them.

The most momentous shift in our understanding of the universe arguably predated Copernicus. The breakthrough wasn't moving the origin of the coordinate system from the Earth to the Sun, but the radical 6th century BCE idea that Earth floats in space like other celestial bodies.

take what little i wrote
and burn it with the rest of me
take the way that it chokes
and put it in the recipe
for disaster often comes to those who wait for it
and ever after may be sweeter but i only have a taste for regret

You can tell /r/askphilosophy is filled with philosophers, because any time anyone asks a question, all of the answers are comments that direct the asker to any number of articles or texts written by other people, rather than daring to have an actual thought of their own.
