That's not their philosophy, it's the opposite of it. Their point is more in line with something like "the ability to sense pain is not related to sentience and is not special", not "if something can sense pain, it is therefore not sentient and is not special".
- tekromancr 5y agoUh, actually, it seems from their later posts that that is precisely their philosophy.
- colordrops 5y agoAre you suggesting that sentience is required to suffer from pain? Or that suffering isn't a problem unless you are sentient?
