I don’t think its a bad thing to be humbled by the knowledge that each of us is just an insignificant collection of recycled atoms that coalesce and starts thinking for a fraction of a moment before those atoms separate again and our consciousness returns to nothingness with the universe completely ignorant of us ever existing.
Instead of thinking of the entirety of men, think of the worst of us. Those are the ones that still don’t have this knowledge even though it is known to humanity for millennia. Those are the ones I’m referring to.
