 I don't think humans are smart enough to survive.

Maybe the cockroaches, when they evolve intelligence, will find a way. 
 Where do you think we came from? You really think it’s the shrew? 😂 
 Well then, to the next evolution of the current cockroaches... I wish you luck little guys. 
 Haha I’m doing my part with catch and release 

They’re smarter then the flies og 
 Than* (?) 
 Or we become cockroaches. I can think of various styling options for the antennas  
 😨😳 
 You watched Wall·E recently didn't you 
 No. Is it a good movie? 
 You've gotta watch it if you never have 
 it's a classic. 
 Survive to what ? 
 human ability to destroy has vastly outstripped their intelligence 

there are reasons to believe human intelligence has actually declined since the stone age and it is currently plummeting like a rock due to 100 IQ whites being rapidly replaced with 80 IQ non-whites

honestly it is probably a good thing if humanity is destroyed in order to save the planet - from communicating with people on NOSTR every day i don't see anything worth preserving here 
 Let's be honest... Most whites are dumb motherfuckers...

IMO, intelligence emerges from incentives, which take the form of culture. Adjust the cultural architecture, get more of x behavior and less of y behavior. 
 i have no idea what you just said but i'm going to assume it makes sense. 
 Idk either. 👃
