Animals are conscious and should be treated as such

[Minyatur]

What makes you think this planet isn't a planet that has received extra or excessive negativity already and maybe its reduction will actually help balance things out?

Everything is part of the balancing, just stating that there is nothing truly different in one self and other-selves or what is happening on this particular sphere. I'm simply doing like you do and taking a side in this discussion. In the end we are every side of this, we are those we reject and we reject them simply because we understand not how "we" came to that.

From that perspective this Earth is enlightening in showing what ways we can be that we are unaware of. It's not why is that one human doing this, it's why I am through that path of experience doing it.
