I'm glad I was able to teach you a new word

misanthropy is hatred of humanity. I am an anthropologist, someone who studies humanity, so you can imagine I am passionate about it

Humans are a very complex and diverse species, we are capable of both bad and good. I don't think it's fair to hate the whole species for the actions of a minority, and it's almost always a minority, especially when you're talking about things like climate change, the drivers of those are a small number of humans with an extreme disproportionate amount of power over everyone else.
