Genesis 6:5-8 is interesting -

5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.

First, God was so dissatisfied with His creation that he decided to destroy almost all mankind, but also almost all of the birds and animals.

Second, He exacted collective punishment on mankind by drowning almost all, including infants and the unborn children.

So you have the ability to discern the intent of God and sit inn judgment on Him?

That’s pretty brazen.

What should he have done that would have met with your approval?

"Second, He exacted collective punishment on mankind by drowning almost all, including infants and the unborn children."

You skipped Genesis 6:4. The entire earth was corrupted through the actions of the Watchers.

Supposedly the people of earth were very evil back then..
If you think about it...we getting close...
Lots of babies and infants are killed nowadays...
Elderly people are being murdered....
Young people have their gang wars and revenge shootings
Governmental grifting and corruption abound..
Wives and husbands cheating or beating on each other...even killing each other..
Ethnic wars....monetary wars....living space wars...
Lying...deceit
Sexual infidelity...
Other than reproductive “sex” being practiced...
Creation denied...we are just unstable complex clump of cells..evolving toward...unknown territory..
Society unraveling...
Forcing “medicine” on the whole population of the earth?
...the end of the human race?
All done without “direct” action by God?
“No thanks God, we can wipe ourselves out by ourselves”
