It does contribute for sure but I’m arguing in group/out group hostility is part of being human, we have always done it from our cave man days and will always do it
humanity cannot be lost based on something it has always done
Ah yes, “forever”, definitely an apt name for the teensy fraction of an eyeblink of the universe’s lifespan during which sapient life has existed on this planet.
Okay, so? Life existed for a hundred thousand times longer than what we consider to be the modern human race, but that life is still our ancestry and makes “the human timescale” a nonsensical, arbitrary concept.
Racism is also a pretty recent thing.
Discrimination based on X/Y/Z has been around and will be around forever
Of course. But our concept of racism is largely a product of colonialism.

I mean im literally responding to a comment that said “humanity is lost”, so my timescale necessarily involves … humans

Again, drawing an arbitrary line in the sand. By chance are you a creationist?
