Assuming, falsely, that there's a reliable route to "solutions" that doesn't pass through a natural selection mechanism.

I didn't assume that. Selection doesn't need to take the form of collapse. There's no reason to prefer competitive iteration to cooperative iteration, especially when one considers the ecological limits humanity is rapidly approaching.

"There's no reason to prefer competitive iteration to cooperative iteration" -- Your understanding of what Natural Selection means is obviously very different to mine.

Obviously. Yours is based solely on aggressive competition with a narrow fitness function, which is a shit evolutionary strategy. Your selection mechanism is overconstrained, so your approach isn't properly meta. It's biased towards extinction.

Socialist societies seem to have the edge when it comes to extinction. That's why regime diversity is the only thing the right needs, and the one thing the left (quite rationally) refuses to tolerate.

Humanity is currently facing extinction. The right's approach is slower, more constrained, and biased towards extinction. Why is the right's approach better? Plus classes prevent society from acting as a cohesive whole, so that has to be solved first before selection could occur

"Humanity is currently facing extinction." -- Interesting if true.

I mean, large scale die offs and ecological catastrophe aren't exactly ideal for long-term civilizational fitness either.

Ecological catastrophe is a desperate leftist meme. Not enough people are going to rally around it to bail you out.

So do you think anthropogenic climate change isn't real or? If so do you really believe that warming will be held to under 2°C? That doesn't seem likely.

Who will it hurt most? Quite likely to be a strategic positive.

... As to the question of what is likely -- are you investing in Baffin Island? Why not?

A huge mass of invading climate refugees seemed like it'd be something you'd want to avoid, but apparently not.
