But why should we sacrifice ourselves for the planet?
The planet created us. It would be an awful waste for us to just kill ourselves. We use up the resources and move on to the next. So we are parasites. That doesn't mean we should abandon ourselves. We are quickly becoming the best parasite in the Universe. Let's not give up our title so easily!
I suppose perspective is important.
A parasite would see themselves as the hero of the story. But the bulk of symbiotic life would probably disagree.
Objectively hard to say who has the stronger claim.
It's like the buggers from Enders Game. They were just doing their thing, even though it might have been bad in a certain perspective.
For the good of the planet, and eventually the solar system, all primate life needs to be extinguished.
It is a parasitic lifeform that inevitably leads to cataclysmic destruction on a planetary, or even galactic scale.
The only way to live a moral life is to kill all humans
