Is human intelligence a mistake by nature?
All other species fit into nature perfectly while humans destroy it

Shouldn't we assume it was mistaken if it called itself a mistake?

Humans are an invasive species everywhere. The planet was fine when humans remained in Africa.

Incorrect, the moment a species goes somewhere it doesn't belong they quickly become a pest that disrupts the local environment and it takes decades or centuries until the environment can acclimate to the change and fix itself. For example any herbivore would completely graze a land to absolute depletion if there is no predator to decimate the population. If nature was perfect, no species would have ever gone extinct and things would have remained the same for millions of years. Nature is an everchanging system and the reason why humans currently affect it the most is because they're the top predator.

However, we won't ever destroy nature. We will damage it either until we've made this place inhabitable for ourselves and die off, or we start supporting nature to support ourselves. Either way nature fixes itself.

Why would you want to believe to be completely different than other humans and putting yourself above them while wanting to state that others would do the same things as you are doing while hating these people for doing these things and why would you want to think that this particular problem as well is a problem of others?

We could salt the entire planet with colbalt bombs and that would objectively destroy all life on the planet.

>all life
The majority of intelligent life maybe, but not all of life. Even if you nuked the entire surface and all the oceans to the point of making Earth look like the moon, there would still be some micro life living below the surface. You'd have to shoot the Earth out of the Suns orbit and then get the Earths core to stop working to actually eliminate all life on Earth.

I mean, every species impacts nature to some extent. But nature doens't really give a fck and continues to exist, while some species aren't fit to live in modified environments and need to evolve or die.

Nope, invasive species destroy the ecosystem all the time with or without human intervention. Circle of life or some shit.

Cyanobacteria and the oxygen catastrophe would like a word. As would countless other instances of nature "destroying" itself. Humans are only special because we can observe and contextualize our own impact.

The biosphere is adversarial, that's how it evolves. Human activity has caused previously niche organisms to thrive in places.
