IMHO human and animal rights are technology, too. At least in the sense of progress being made there as well. It's not that long ago black people were slaves/segregated, and women's suffrage is even fresher. And as much there is still to improve, some progress happened; instead of, say, there "always being one class of people considered subhuman", which no doubt some people have uttered in defeat back then, too.
