maybe the creation of the film “Mean Creek” starring Josh Peck /s Fr tho my answer is Humans discovering nuclear weapons. Ik ik, it’s good for preventing escalation but I genuinely think nuclear weapons will be humanity’s downfall. Fact check me if I’m wrong but I heard that 3 or more nuclear ICBMs hitting Earth at the same time could literally pull us off balance and we could all freeze or burn to death in seconds. NO battle is worth that. The class struggle dies the second that we all do. Global capitalist interests and all the natural resources and markets and money on our planet, the things that we have fought over and died for and propagandized and coerced and did so many horrid things for as humans, it will all have been for nothing. Obviously de-nuclearization is not overnight, but people need to keep in mind that too many escalations or mistakes could lead to the end of everything we know. Vasili Arkhipov is one of the greatest people to ever exist. There was a false alarm on Soviet scanners of missiles coming their way in the height of the Cuban missile crisis, Officer Arkhipov denied the request to fire missiles back. Arkhipov likely saved a large portion of Earth’s population that day, possibly all of Earth’s inhabitants.

There were already over 2400 tests of nuclear weapons. A few more won't make any difference.

Striker's anti-monarchist speech had me phoning the based department.
Maybe the Sino-Soviet split. It seems like it was destined to happen after Stalin died because of how shitty Khrushchev was, but still, that was an extremely harmful event for the future of humanity. Hopefully we can recover from that mistake.
Agriculture.
Edit: this is a joke lol, I'm really in to anprim jokes because I love bullying kids. I guess I should have made it more obvious...
Edit edit: I literally fetishize heavy industry. I swear this is not backpedaling.
Why is this controversial? The lives and health of humans got objectively worse after the invention of agriculture. Sure we won’t reverse everything, and I’m not an Anprim, but I honestly think part of a solarpunk future needs to be reverting back to food forests and vertical forest cities.
Agriculture increased the energy / biomass available to humans exponentially. Its a technological advancement of the productive forces that allowed humanity to more easily cope with hunger, and allow human population to grow. As Marxists we want to improve and increase food production and technology, feed more people, not roll back the wheel of history. Improvements in agriculture to this day are resulting in less hungry people.
I agree with all that, but if we’d never have invented agriculture, and lived in primitive communism forever I’d be happy.
