My computer takes a minute to connect to the internet DX Wired or wireless, it doesn't matter. It just stays blank for a minute then connects and researching it is oddly awkward -.-
The hypocrisy of vegans, and just heartlessness of people-
I don't eat meat because animals are killed by it. OHHH NOO!!!! A FLY!!! I'M GONNA KILL IT AND SINCE I'M A COWARD I NEED TO USE A WEAPON LIKE A BOOK FOR SOMETHING EVEN A BABY CAN KILL BY ITS SELF BY ACCIDENT!!! OH LOOK! I KILLED IT! THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW HOW STRONG I AM!!!!!"
Or even "Hey look, an Ant hill. I'm going to flood it and drown thousands of creatures because I'm bored. Yup, nothing sheer evil here. Sure the same act to humans would be evil, but humans put themselves above others so I don't need to worry about people seeing my evilness. If I can't abuse other people, then I can abuse animals. Yeah, I'm so cool"
"You know, by your logic, I would be nothing but bones as I have about 5 known different insect species just chillin in my room. One of them even flew on my hand last night. My hand didn't turn to mush o.o How could that be??? Could it be that you're a killer for no reason other than your own selfish desires to "Not be annoyed?
"Well it's okay, they're all hive mind. They are all just controlled by the queen and are all mindless drones."
No, they're not. They listen to the queen because the queen gives off certain smells through the air which her soldiers smell, and depending on the scent, is an order/whatever she's saying. So really, they're communication is far more advanced than us as they have both language, and a biological way to send their message through long distances.
"Well yes, they're all sheep"
"Our own military does the same thing, that job position? You listen to a boss. What they do is simply a more proficient way of doing what we do, communicate."
"Well that doesn't matter. Us humans are superior in every way."
"REALLY NOW! Alright then, lets see how superior you are 1 on 1 with a bear, no weapons. See how much your "Superiority" helps you then.
"Well... Uhhh... Weapons are apart of my superiority."
"Well then you, yourself are weak, needing to hide behind weapons. And it's a weapon that YOU didn't make, but took the credit of someone else, a weapon that you have no idea how to make and were taught to use. Quit taking other peoples credit and pretending like you were an important part of it. There is no "We" made planes, the wright brothers made the first plane as everyone else stood around being like "It's impossible!" "GAWD DOESN'T WANT US FLYING, NOR IN THE CLOUDS! REMEMBER THE TOWER OF BABEL!!! GAWD STRUCK IT DOWN AS WE ARE NOT TO BE NEAR HEAVEN!" And then the plane has been improved not by your worthless ass, but by engineers, specific people who were taught how it all works."
WELL that's what makes me special, I have the potential to learn, unlike those animals. The hook for example, no animal makes hooks or uses tools."
"Really now, Beavers did Dams first, and birds make the hook design too, and learn how locks work just by looking at it and when the researcher changes the lock, the bird notices the change and doesn't even bother with the mechanisms that don't work. Meanwhile you have to sit there and analyze the whole lock and will probably still do the steps that are unnecessary."
Well we have nuclear reactors, we have amazing technology"
"Okay, build me a nuclear reactor and this amazing technology. Oh you can't? Then it looks like by your logic, you should be treated like shit by the people that can build nuclear reactors and amazing technology because you aren't smart enough to have even a shred of respect."
You're not nearly as special as you think you are, so quit using that as an excuse to mistreat others. Human or animal. And I don't know where this stigma of animals are stupid comes from, but ENOUGH! Birds build hooks/nest, beavers build dams, insects build massive hives (Scaling down to their size) and you sit there on your computer that someone else built on the chair someone else built wasting your life away being all depressed and pretend like you're special or superior to other creatures, or even putting yourself on equal grounds to the people who's intelligence is far beyond your basic comprehension because "you're both human"? Such arrogance and Ignorance.
But lets say that animals are exactly what you think they are, then how sad that these stupid animals fulfill their purpose in life, and keep the ecosystem running and healthy while you sit there with no purpose, simply a cancer on the world, taking part in making the planet in a more damaged state than it would be without you. Even ignoring that, something being stupid isn't an excuse to abuse them. If it was, then babies would be fair game, and the mentally impaired people would be fair game. If your moral logic makes humans an exception, then your moral logic is flawed. Moral logic either applies to everybody, or it's not truly moral as someone is suffering from it.
"Actually, I built my computer, I ignore all the above because I'm a prick who needs to set the record straight" NO! you followed the instructions to put the pieces where they belong, you didn't build the graphics card, you didn't soder the chips, you didn't program your mother board. (If you did, then good for you ^^ Although my rant isn't slamming everyone. If you're feeling insulted and/or attacked, then odds are you're apart of that problem weather you know it, or your subconscious knows it and you, yourself never thought of it.
I'm getting so tired of the heartlessness, the superiority complex, the people with power when they shouldn't have it. I don't want anybody to suffer, but we all just sit back and allow it, bitch about it for like 2 days then move on and when someone decides to take a stand, they're the bad guy, or they're an extremist who needs to chill out. Humans are the only species in the world that can vanish tomorrow, and the world will actually become HEALTHIER! And I don't mean minorly, I mean the world will be a paradise in comparison. That's not a good thing, humans don't HAVE to be that species, we CAN be that species that if we vanish then the world will get worse in comparison, but no, we don't want that future. If we truly did, then we could have it. The people in charge have too much power. Yes, but only because we allow them to have that power. They have too much power because you're a sheep that's too afraid to make a stand. Even against our own military, the entirety of a countries people will win. Don't think so? If a small faction of rebels can cause the government problems and successfully assassinate politicians, and gain ground AGAINST a military, then everyone standing up together can most definitely take control (And that's assuming the military will take the governments side, the military's oath if I remember correctly is protect and serve the people. If majority of the people turn against the government, the military I think is suppose to join the people (I forgot which founding father, but he basically said that there should be a revolution every decade or so) But we don't because we are perfectly fine with what we have and as long as we aren't being inconvenienced or hurt, we don't care. Granted that's not necessarily wrong, but we do have the power to make the world a better place, but we don't. And allot of us don't want that world, if that new world comes, allot of us will be smartasses, take advantage of the "loopholes" that are only there for more freedoms.
