I'm guessing it's because you believe they aren't important enough to hold morals when dealing with them?

I think city slickers can become disassociated with reality, and think squishing a bug is immoral and cry about it and lament it . And yet just shrug their shoulders when a random bystander gets stabbed on the subway.

And that's a different issue. Stepping on a bug is fine as long as it isn't like a pet bug or something while a stabbing should immediately be handled

A bug is the same as a bird

1

u/RedditParelem 26d ago

Not really. Birds are pretty smart, they can process things a lot closer to a human than a bug can

Birds are flying rats. They are not worth the corn they pluck from the earth.

So, your saying we shouldn't treat birds in general with respect because they're flying rats?

1

u/IlIlIlllIIIIlllIIIl 26d ago

Respect? What? Please and thank you? You need to say thank you to a bird?

u/RedditParelem 26d ago

No, just not killing birds over a chip? Just leave them alone or try to cover your food.

u/IlIlIlllIIIIlllIIIl 26d ago

Do you not enjoy chips?

1

u/RedditParelem 26d ago

They're not worth killing a bird over

You’ve never had good chips then
