With the following animal characteristics: brain, heart, blood, vessels, sexual organs, muscles, cells, dopamine, water, illness, emotions… does that mean that every human being is actually something and not someone? 🤔
What about babies? They do not have basic language and structural cognition, do not understand basic human emotions, cry out loud for just beeing alive… are they something? Or someone?
I guess it’s just a shift of perspective before you actually come to conclusion that Animals are living beeings and sometimes way more “human” than some humanoid i have encountered in my life ^^.
Only some people are something - like Jews during WW2. We call living creatures including people “things”, because then it feels more ok to kill them. It lowers the empathy.
By treating animals like people, do you mean respecting them and not killing them or letting them work as senators?
IMO treating animals like things is definitely wrong, in the same way treating people like things is. Neither of them is a thing, all us animals are alive.

Murdering someone isn’t cute. Even if you plan to eat them.
Boooooooo these cows are cute.
They aren’t saying they aren’t
Yeah but that attitude now makes them seem leas delicious and that’s not fair.
And they were shampoo and blow dry to apparently nakes the meat more tender. How they do Kobe beef if I am not mistaken.
I dunno, you throw enough glitter around and anything is cute
Good thing they’re not someone but something
People are so fucking weird
lol, name checks out for sure.

no, and this makes no sense

they weren’t things. treating them like things is part of what made that wrong.
and treating animals like people is also wrong.

you shouldn’t treat animals like smartphones, either. you treat different things differently.
