Woah there cowboy,
We’re still closer to rival monkey tribes hurling our shit at one another as we shit it out than we are some benevolent, knowledge valuing civilization.
Don’t worry a few more pointless world wars and population decimations, and our species might actually develop admirable priorities beyond tribal resource hoarding from the ashes.

Tbf, even in the Star Trek timeline earth had to go through WWIII nuclear devastation that nearly wiped out all life on earth to even take the first steps on that track

Why ate you bringing up Star Trek? That’s fiction.

It may be fiction, but (Post-WWIII) it’s a blueprint worth following. IMO it’s the most realistic likelihood of a ‘true’ utopia i.e. not a perfect utopia that’s secretly/under the surface dystopia.
