Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis[1] has. It has wiped out dozens of species of frogs and affects about 30% of amphibians world wide.

that's a rather specific example that i personally don't think is relevant to the discussion. for one, fungi are not even animals. and it's a very specific disease tied to a certain class of species. humans have affected a greater number of species across all categories and are doing so at an increasing rate. there is no other event in history like this that was caused by a single animal species, that i know of.

although, i suppose if people want to make the comparison that humanity is as mindless as a fungus that causes disease, then by all means.

It's clear that that's not his point. It's hard to take people seriously who don't argue in good faith.

it's clear that that wasn't my point, and it's also clear that that wasn't my summary of their point. i answered their point directly, and in good faith, above that. i don't know why you're honing in on what amounted to a joke, although if one zooms out far enough, it might not be hard to think of humanity as mindless.

i don't, however, understand the point of your comment.
