A fish has no concept of water, it doesn't know it is in water, it doesn't know there can be existence outside of water, and it doesn't know it depends on water. You cannot possibly deem the culture extreme & violent when it is much like fish, that doesn't know of alternatives.
Most of all, fish will defend themselves against perceived existential threats - fish aren't xenophobic to defend themselves against sharks
- eesmith 8y agoTo the extent that a fish can be said to have "concepts", I'm certain that a fish like a mudskipper or a flying fish can distinguish between being in water and being in air. Does that not invalidate your argument?
