"At its core, civilisation can be characterised by urbanisation, that is, the growth of cities. "At its core, civilisation can be characterised by urbanisation,
that is, the growth of cities. A city is an artificial habitat designed
to concentrate large populations of humans.
It is the concrete domain of traffic jams, apartment blocks, and shopping malls
here the lights never go out and the seasons slip by largely unnoticed.
Yet since then Leviathan has spread urbanisation across the globe,
devouring or wiping out almost all undomesticated human cultures, along with so many of the more-than-human lifeforms who cocreated their habitats.
Put otherwise, you might think of a city as an immense organism which lays waste to its habitat whilst shitting toxic waste. Defined by their high population density, cities are inherently incapable of sustaining themselves on their local landbase, meaning that the untamed surroundings of any urban centre
which become increasingly distant and alien for those living inside
are invariably colonised in order to grow crops, build monuments, and fuel industry."

This gives me personally the best definition of Civilization🤔 I cannot for the life of me ever support Civilization🤮They want everyone to have an equal share of the industrial spoils keeping a ecocidal relic, I want to burn the factories down to the ground!
