I find it a bit strange that you seem to be assigning moral equivalence to animals, plants, viruses and bacteria. Animals should be of top priority because they are the most likely to feel the highest amount of pain by our actions, and we can feasibly take measures to prevent it
- justinclift 5y ago> they are the most likely to feel the highest amount of pain Is that just guesswork?
- sinsterizme 5y agoThere’s plenty of empirical studies done on animals where we observe they respond to painful stimuli similarly to humans and avoid similar situations thereafter. We can’t ask them so this is the best we have.
- justinclift 5y agoYes... and what about the others?
