It astounds me that people legitimately assume that the other animals on this planet don’t feel pain. It seems incredibly obvious to me that they would, or that we should at least be assuming they would.
They assume, at various times, even other humans arent human enough therefore the same concepts (such as pain & suffering) don’t really apply.
It’s a standard coping mechanism that might be necessary but it’s definitely misused by humans for no other reason than greed (especially in times when scarcity isn’t really a notable concern).
Half the population lacks the brain functions necessary to feel empathy. We call them conservatives in the US.
No, I’m not kidding
I think only the extremely simple life doesn’t feel pain, but then you have arrived on a microscopic level, where some tiny creature is getting eaten while eating themselves.
