Sounds like a form of nihilism.

I dunno. It sounds like realism, to me. We’re not in charge, and we’re not exempt from the causes that exterminate other species. We can do ourselves in by wholly natural processes, the inevitable consequences of our own poor decisions writ large across the face of the world.

Think of caribou out-breeding the capacity of their grazing areas.
