Reminds me of the Kurzgesagt video "A Selfish case for Altruism". If all those people were educated and working on making the world better, that would mean more people curing diseases that you personally could die from in the future. More people solving global warming and other future unknown global issues, that could harm you or you kids in the future. Etc...

Even from a self serving angle, it's better to have more people in the world well fed, well educated, living well, and contributing to society.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
