>There is literally no way to stop it

All people have to do is put their arms behind their backs, stop working, and demand it happen from the most powerful people in the world. I assure you that this isn't as bad as having humanity go extinct from climate change. Admittedly, getting enough people to do that is the real challenge, especially in the face of capital trying to tell them the exact opposite.

If an asteroid was about to direct hit in say 2029. Would society just argue on the internet and die? For how advanced we are, I really think we're an extremely weak society. Existential threats are taken very lightly.
