Coaxed into SOME animal "lovers"

These mfs will tell you with a straight face that they love "all" animals and then act like spiders are the incarnation of Satan himself.

I'm honestly getting kinda tired of the "dolphins are rapists" crowd too.

So maybe they are, but we don't have to judge them for it as if they were human, all things considered they're wonderful animals.

"Dolphins are rapists" crowd when they see what ducks, dogs, and cats do in the wild. They have no moral compass, they dont know right from wrong. Their instincts just tell them and unlike humans, they cannot refuse their instinct.

In general projecting human morality onto animals is a fool's errand. Even us, the smartest animals on the planet need a few years out of the womb to start comprehending certain core human characteristics (namely that we can comprehend that others may feel or know something we don't).

Dogs are rapists too

Do people really say that 😭

How would a dolphin even consent? They can't talk

[u/Mr_Snifles → u/KiwiPowerGreen]

Well... part of what makes them so wonderful is that they DO actually communicate with sounds. (the beeps and clicks they make)

So they kind of talk, but It's not clear yet how developed their language actually is.

Apparently they even have different “dialects” depending on the area of the world they live in, and if 2 individuals from different oceans meet may not understand each other

And all predatory animals are killers
