what if plants and animals think and are wah more.concious than we think they are?
I didnt fact check this but i heard something about how we recently dicovered how plants have a different kind of plant version of a brain right...
Well, first of all, if were still learning stuff about them, then we obviously dont know that we have enough imformstion to determine that they dont...
And also, they are different species then us, plants photosythesyse, animals see in a million different colors than we do, things obviously arent gonna work the same way for them as they do for us, so just because they dont respond to stimuly the way we do, doesnt necessarily mean they arent aware of it in a different way...
Like, we can barely locate our own mind, let alone a whole other species.
Plus, plants dont see things, and dont speak human languages (though they do communicate to each other), so obviously theyre not gonna think in words or images like we might, but maybe they think in the same methods of communication they use for other plants, like chemicals, maybe they just think and feel by producing more or less of certain chemicals or "imagining" the way those feel, or something, idfk.
But point is, why do people love to justify the way we treat animals specifically by saying like "theyre not as concious as us" "they dont have souls"
Fucking prove it dick. You cant. Therefore you are just making an assumption that literally justifies killing millions of innocent creatures, brutally, for your own convenience.
I have no issues wirh hunting by the way, as long as its for meat and not for sport, but other methods of meat production are fucking horrid.
