Edit: We survived an ice age and we’re very highly adaptable. Plus, we will hold on to some percentage of technical knowledge that will help us adapt faster.

    It just hit me in a sobering kinda way.

      No you misunderstand, I’m not saying the thought has no point. I’m saying what’s the point of saying we survive if civilization and Society doesn’t. As Humanity really survived at that point.

        [Has] Humanity really survived at that point[?]

        Yeah. And probably found a new way to live. Do you consider Humanity to be intrinsically tied to modern society?

          How would we know? We have nothing to compare it to.

          Let me put another way. In Planet of the apes, the real one, humans are basically no different from animals. They’re like rabbits. They are not speaking and don’t reason. Are they still human at that point? Would we recognize them as such? I don’t know.
