What's your take on the common "I could have painted that" criticism?

What if 30 million people didn't show up for work on the same day?

Fixed the classic evolution meme
The original implies we're better off as animals. But once it hit sentience is where things really went wrong. Even the evolution of bacteria before that really, which contributed to what sentient nature became.

Should we be conserving Hell?
Is increasing the number of animals a good thing? For example, cheetahs don't really need to exist. Yet because humans have decided they do, we create more of them, and they suffer. And then we need to create much more prey for them to eat, and the prey suffer even more than the cheetahs. What's the point? For who's benefit is this? Do you consider this to be animal abuse?

FAQ Friday: Why would we want universal extinction?
We now have a website for the FAQ. This will hopefully make it easier to browse the questions and read it. It will also be expanding. A few of the most common questions and misconceptions will remain in the pinned post, and more will go on the site. www.universalextinction.com/faqs
Weekly or bi weekly, we will have a FAQ topic for the community to discuss. It will give extinctionists a chance to contribute their opinions to the answers in the FAQ. The current questions will eventually go through this process too and might be edited.
So, why would we want universal extinction?

Everything is at War with everything CONSTANTLY
No news, I know, but still. This barbaric rule of Planet Earth dictates EVERYTHING.
As mundane as it sounds, I already had this realization as a child observing red and green traffic lights. Green for one side means red for the other. Winning in one game (most games are competitive) means that another person loses.
On the most microscopic level, our bodies constantly fight bacteria and viruses. Thinking about this, because I suffer from a painful UTI right now.
Even our body cells sometimes fight each other.
Did you know that cancer origins in a cell breaking the "cell contact" and tries to override other cells with its script? It may ignore signals telling it when to stop dividing, evade programmed cell death, and eventually expand at the expense of surrounding tissue.
Fleeting peace can only exist at the expense of someone else or when two equally strong forces temporarily compromise.
No thanks. Earth 2/5 ⭐, never again.
(It's not one star because people would opt out otherwise and Earth would be quite empty)

The 3 illusions of proliferism: pleasure, religion, and utopia
Hartmann thought humanity would have to pass through three major illusions before it could finally reject existence. First in earthly pleasures and goals (dopamine), then we move hope to an afterlife, and finally we place it in future progress through science, technology, and social reform. He believed humanity would eventually exhaust all three and then realize that the problem is life itself.
Which is more convincing to you? Hope in pleasure, after death, future technology and policies, or extinction?
