Yes. All of this to say, humans are animals. Thanks.
Yes and just because we do it doesn't make it okay, no? Humans kill each other just like animals, but I'm not going to use that as a justification for killing someone.
Humans kill each just like animals because we are animals. If your back was agaisnt the wall would you fight back like the animal you are? Or would you run away like the animal you are? People do some crazy shit when we remove this thin veneer of human superiority
Yes I 100% agree which is why if anyone is in that situation I won't fault them. To quote my brother after studying psychology for 4 years, humans are smart monkeys. The fact that we live in a world where that exists doesn't make me not try and push for a better world though.
I'm not so sure were "smart" monkeys, clever yes, but not smart. And i agree, let's make the world a better place! I'd love for lab grown meat to replace factory farming, I hate factory farming, not only for the way animals are treated, but for the environmental issues. Let's push for a better world
