I think human consciousness is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware. Nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself - we are creatures that should not exist by natural law... We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self, that accretion of sensory experience and feelings, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody's nobody... I think the honorable thing for our species to do is to deny our programming. Stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction - one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.

First of all, "everybody's nobody"???... No, that's my job !!!!! And secondly, what if I had dare to suggest here to stop reproducing and walk hand in hand into extinction? I am pretty sure I would've gotten some retaliation (and I am being a bit conservative). Why is it then kind of glamorous for "Detective Rust Cohle" to say such thing? Beats me... I know True Detective is an awesome TV short series but c'mon people, some are buying this as deep philosophy of sorts... It is not
