"It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure."
Population cycles are literally a 3rd grade science class topic, but americans cry "wah wah when will I ever need this", tell their kids education is just liberal indoctrination, and then they go to the movies and hear this slop and have no problem believing it because humans are god awful and evaluating trite statements.
Other animals have natural curbs on population. Predator's, diseases. And reach some equilibrium.
Humans have been very good at overcoming any natural limit on population.
But think that is the point of the article? That humans have continued to expand, on the boom-bust curve, -> humans are on an every increasing upward curve, and thus heading fast into some inevitable limit that will cause a crash.
So kind of like a virus that grows un-abated until it kills the host.
