Is there a Kaczynski equivalent to Godwin's Law? HN likes to reference him a lot.

as industrial society grows longer, the likelihood of disastrous consequences increases?

Good luck getting off this earth without industry. Earth won't last forever. It's a degenerate mindset that thinks we should just rot here on Earth without advancing.

Is humanity currently rotting to you?

Yes. Humans, just like information, are prone to bitrot. Every day your data is rotting, there's no stopping the entropy train, so most anyone who cares about it takes preventative measures by increasing redundancy. Man does this via procreation and perpetuating, hopefully, to other planets while Earth is habitable. Extreme stagnation is a form of degeneration as well as extreme change for change's sake.
