What do you think is the biggest threat to humanity/civilization?

[jvs]

It is all a big mess i think right now,what is going to do us in?

Of course it could be an all out war but that is not what i am aiming at.

Is it over population?

Politicians?

Environmental issues or just the fact that people are losing common sense.?

Could be many things,what is your opinion?

Narcissists. Population can be controlled, by education, child support enforcement and detention for those who won't pay. Things that will make people think twice before having children no one wants.  Extreme punishment for illegal activity within the and over harvesting of the oceans. Over development of forests and fields, brought about by corruption in the court system. Corruption in all areas, especially those that get others to bend for money, allowing things to get out of control, allowing the destruction of habitat. All this is brought back to the narcissists. People who only care about control and getting over on others.

The world is so full of hate like never before.  Everyone seems to hate everybody, even people from their own countries their supposed allies.

I can agree to a point,but what if a few countries do everything they

possibly can to control CO2 for instance and other countries just don't care?

Within your own country you can control things but how are we going to control what others do?

The overall attuited of the "woke" crowd is to remove freedom as their gentle inner self will get hurt. Stop all the use of Oil despite the fact that around 6000 products that are purchased every day depend on the bye products of oil.

In short their mission is to get everyone back into caves.

International laws, enforced by the UN, the ICJ, and other countries getting together and actually helping each other.

you should correct the word "civilication" as you may have thought about writing "civilization" or maybe English is not your primary language. Did your post asked about a "dead" treat to humanity, Nooooo, thus for me Vladimir Putin is the "current living thing" that's a teat to humanity. If he's dead I am quite sure many people will celebrate it but no idea if the world would be any better or worse.

Yes, you are very close to my opinion on this.

More so ,corporate greed,thru lobbying they control a lot of politicians

is going to create a big uprising in the future.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/woke-meaning-origin

 

Woke is now defined in this dictionary as “aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice),” and identified as U.S. slang. It originated in African American English and gained more widespread use beginning in 2014 as part of the Black Lives Matter movement. By the end of that same decade it was also being applied by some as a general pejorative for anyone who is or appears to be politically left-leaning.
