    If you listen to George Carlin, he often takes the same stance without really mentioning animals.

    Just that he doesn’t like humans.

      Still a strange take IMO.

      Bad individual human behaviour often pales into insignificance when contrasted with wild animal behaviour.

      Unless you count the ongoing ecocide we as a collective are in the midst of enacting…

        There is a level of forgiveness people cam give animals since most pets top out at non-speaking toddler levels of intelligence.

        Humans OTOH are capable of much greater and therefore receive less grace/forgiveness/leeway

          Pets are usually provided with everything they ever need by their owners so they have little reason to show their brutal side.

        I just think it’s egos on override. Looking down an everyone else because they place themselves and their opinions so high.
