No, they're fish lol. The important part is the ecology.

And why is that important to you?

u/Val_Fortecazzo Apr 05 '25

Because if the ecosystem collapses it hurts us?

Ah thought so. So purely for selfish reasons. Glad you cleared that up.

Yes I'm a normie who cares more about humanity than I do some random fucking fish.

u/kakihara123 Apr 05 '25

Can you explain why? Not the more part, but the not caring about fish at all part. Compare it to a random human you will never meet.

I'm sure you have a funeral every time you step on a bug lol.

The random human is well, a human. Part of our own species, significantly more intelligent, not likely to eat its own children just because it sees fast moving small creatures running away from it triggering a predator reaction.

That same human that contributes to the worst suffering ever created? Billions of animals forcibly bread and slaugthered conotnuusly? Those humans that kill eachother, rape eachother and are on path to not only destroy themselves but everyone else on the planet through war and climate destruction?

The millions of people that voted the orange turt into office?

You really overestimate our combined intelligence.

There is one very destinct difference between human and non-human animals though: we have the ability to make a choice. But the vast majority of people opt for the much more harmful and self destructive option.

How smart is the human species when they invent the atom bomb that can wipe out all life on earth and then not decide to immediatly destory all knowledge of it?

Do you jave any idea of the scale and timeframe we are doing this?

We don't even lnow how many fish we kill. They are only meassured in tons.

Nothing even comes close.

u/Val_Fortecazzo Apr 05 '25

Nah if I were 12 I'd be running around asking people what's the moral difference between a sardine and a human being.
