>IF WE’RE SO STUPID HOW COME WE’RE STILL HERE

Well that went full circle faster than expected. We could be living on 1-2 other planets and 3-4 moons. We're not, because we're stupid. We're still here dealing with every other stupid human and animal. Conflating a mere 300,000 years of survival as proof of not being stupid is what I would expect from.. stupid people.
