Re: Pyramid #3/52: Low-Tech II
Perhaps, but it may be negative. When you are a soldier in battle, or an armed policeman interrupting a heinous crime, there are people whom it is good to kill.

Re: Pyramid #3/52: Low-Tech II
Yes, but most people, I think, don't handle it perfectly even when it's without a doubt the necessary thing to do. At least not as well as one would when killing a wild animal. Empathy and necessity don't always play well together.

Re: Pyramid #3/52: Low-Tech II
The pet means nothing to me. It means something to its owner. Killing it would cause distress to that person and I have no desire for that. However I don't have a problem culling feral cats and dogs. It seems a waste to bury the carcasses if their meat is palatable.

It's just weird all the things that seem to matter to you normies, so I'm always dumbfounded when faced with things that don't matter to you.

Re: Pyramid #3/52: Low-Tech II
Caring about specific inanimate objects strikes a very distasteful chord in me as some kind of idolatry or animistic religious belief.

Which is not to say that I equate wives with pets, but that relationships like friendship and love are no less real for that we have concrete nouns for the objects of those relationships. Quote:

I didn't realize that I'd said that before. I apologize for my poor memory and repeating myself then.
