That is self contradictory. A lot of species go extinct due to other species.
If we don't have that "right", that makes us special.
- ben_w 3y agoRights are a fiction we made up for our own benefit, like money and the abstract concept of fish.
- cscurmudgeon 3y agoSo is the concept of "fiction" made up too?
- ben_w 3y agoDunno. As distinct from lies? Perhaps. IIRC early Christianity thought acting violated the ten commandments, and some fiction writers today say their job is to tell lies for money.
- cscurmudgeon 3y agoYou missed my point
- ben_w 3y agoThat comes across like "for more information, please re-read" on a Scarfolk Council poster.
