That's some nice quote mining there Mr. Squid nihilist; you are the embodiment of teenagers first philosophy trying to educate the ignorant, lesser masses. Of course though, you are not superior and I inferior, for I am a an ape and we are equal to cephalopods
:D
Irony incarnate; discounting any other point of view and using insult and mockery to obscure that.
I mean you completely ignore the purpose of an argument and instead sit there and attack the nature of an example.
And you prove yourself by ignoring my arguments, sitting there and attacking my examples. So close to self-awareness, but so far. You went into edgelord levels of punishment when you started decrying mankind as arrogant, ignorant and mean with the pyramids of Giza being nothing more than rocks whilst failing to explain how a deer licking its balls is anything more than a deer licking its balls. Not all species are equal. Humanity comes on top. When it comes to social, verbal or logical intelligence we are on top. And to bring up the Wolf's point earlier in which of two planets you would come across, would you be more interested in contacting an alien planet where there is a large presence of single celled organisms adapted to high pressure alkaline environments or a world where multi-cellular intelligent and sapient complex organisms have advanced so far that they've begun venturing into space too?
I mean you completely ignore the purpose of an argument and instead sit there and attack the nature of an example. I simply cannot fathom how you STILL fail to understand the concept that maybe it's not fair to base the judgement of "Who is most advanced" solely on things that you think are advanced. I don't understand how you cannot see the historical examples of this happening and how it has never gone well.
Because what you're suggesting as "fair" is utterly without merit; I understand what you're saying like I said I made myself clear - I find your opinion to be worthless to discussion because no one gives a fuck about how well aphids reproduce versus how well humans reproduce because things like intelligence are clearly one of the most important traits to compare; without these things we would not even be able to produce these scales. Again, you cannot elevate a deer licking its balls or a bacteria living in the intestines of a human to the same level as a human because there is simply no comparison how vastly inferior one is to the other.
Do you think I waste time pondering how much more superior a goose is to a human in unaided flight? No, I cook the goose. Do you think I would cook a human, or an alien of similar intelligence? No.
I'm tempted to call it satire, some parody of the right wing. A Texan senator who votes to bring Jesus and Democracy to the Martians because they are clearly the most advanced and morally correct methods of living. Poe's law is in full effect.
You are the living parody to me, I mean it's clear in your minds eye that you've conflated political, ethnic and religious identity with your beliefs and now I've triggered you because I am actually Rick Perry from the state of Texas, hyuk hyuk
Remember guys, if we don't treat rice and cattle as our equals we're basically Hitler
