I mean there are multiple proposed filters.
Suppose yours is correct. What is this humanity's nature you speak of?
Bravery? Foolishness? Wisdom? Violence? Greed?
What what of those attributes haven't we already overcome time and again?
It's much more probable that everyone out there is attentively listening to signals instead of radically changing their own mental processes. Or not
Wtf kinda world are you living in where humanity has overcome foolishness, violence, and greed?
I think they meant for five minutes because if you won, you won right?
Exactly. Everyone thought nuclear war might be one of the great filters but we survived the Cold War. Nuclear weapons are no longer a concern, right? Right?
I mean I don't see people practice nuclear drills anymore so yeah
Sounds like little but it's a lot and it compounds
I mean same as yours I hope? People do that daily, hope you grow to notice it. It's nice when you do
