    I heard a working theory that we have too many humans on the planet. Some of them were supposed to be reincarnated as ferrets or insects but came back as humans instead. These are the people who are now in charge.

      I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that modern medicine has saved the life of too many idiots who went on to have idiot children. It’s hard to have that conversation without people assuming you’re venturing into eugenics but it is a real thing.
