    I hate this world.

    No wait, the world is awesome, it’s people that I hate.

        And? Doesn’t mean it’s acceptable for humans to exhibit these same behaviors. So I’m not sure what your point is.

          They’re saying the user’s correction to hating only people and not the world excludes the natural world that sees these horrors just the same.

            Well I’m glad you understood their meaning as it wasn’t clear to me from the context.

            I received your reply, but for some reason I can’t see it in the thread. Any chance you have the “bot account” checked in your settings or is it just weird federation issues?

              Yeah I’ve ran into that a bunch myself. I’ve never heard of the bot account setting but I just looked and it’s disabled.

            The only horror here would be how horribly weird that argument would be, if it was meant serious.

            Nature doing these things isn’t beautiful of course. There’s no inherent moral value in actions, when there is no concept of moral to begin with. No other animal has the capability of pondering about whether it should rape and murder for fun or not. We do.

        Is that supposed to be an argument of some sort? Are you trolling? Are you a teen trying to be edgy? Are you a psychopath (yes, the term is outdated) that just can’t grasp the problem? I’m really wondering.

        Non-human animals are just that. They act on impulses. Humans shouldn’t. At least mentally healthy humans shouldn’t. We shall be in control of our urges. Especially if those are of such a pathetically weak nature that includes raping kids and murdering them.
