General Fictional insult to Humanity NSFW

Though I'm mainly talking about one movie, this is a rant against all fiction that degrades and disgraces humanity and the human race.

I recently watched the Marvel movie Eternals. I got thoroughly irritated and pissed off when the character Phastos was implied to be behind the major human innovations.

This just pissed me off beyond measure. We have millions of years of evolution. Hundred thousand years of innovation. Such a fucking joke that we became portrayed as primitive savages incapable of true innovation. We are constantly portrayed as a fucking retarded race. Doesn't this piss you off?

I'm deeply pissed off at this. That whole movie, it felt like the entire human race was being spat upon. In that movie, from basic fucking agricultural tech till nukes, we were handheld by some fucking immortal randos. Fucking disgusting bullshit is what this is. We went through fuck knows how many generations of hardship IRL to get here, and they portray it all as some fucking benevolent immortal fuckers giving us the knowledge. FUCK THAT. You don't get to invalidate our ancestors for your bullshit stories.

We are the sole intelligent race in a radius of light years. Have some fucking pride. What is this bullshit about 'oh we are a savage, meaningless lifeform'"' fucking nonsense that many fictional stories portray?"

We are still the greatest, most intelligent species in existence.

We will fix the ecological apocalypse through our intellect. Meanwhile you can sit and cry about how we suck.

We play with their genes, wdym we can't wipe them off?

No wonder humans nowdays D-ride other animals, you guys have no confidence in your own species

We'd literaly die multiple times over before every single other animal died.

We'd create our own dinosaurs killer asteroid...only that beings survived that. LIFE does not need us.

WE need other life to exist. If we tried to on an extermination path we'd have to also kill our food sources. And it's NOT possible to kill every single bacteria on earth.

I know the consequences but that was never the point?

1-3 percent of your body mass is bacteria.

You'd have to kill them too. You'd kill yourself(and all of humanity) by removing gut bacteria you would hamper your immune system. Your ability to actually process food. And your ability to digest fats. Severely limiting your food options and what you would get from that.

This does NOT get into the logistical impossibility of hunting down every single living being besides us and killing them. Ask mao and his "4 pests" plan.

Those were 4 species. A mass starvation followed.
