You lack reading comprehension

It's sad that a lot of you on here old af and feel the need to troll
I don’t lack reading comprehension. You arrogantly and ignorantly put animal lives into a box as if they only do the things you listed. You’re just embarrassed to have that mirror put in your face as it shows you’re just as guilty as the CaCs you were admonishing.

No I simply told you how humans view them

You read something and went "oh he said" without ruminating a little on it.

Dude I think the dude you quoted is right.
Problem is your perception, i think that is what he reffering to.
How do we know what ants do on the daily underground & even above ground.
Theres no way to measure that

I read what YOU wrote:
Animals having shown us time and time again they're capable of intelligence, it's just that they aren't bound by society so all they know is eat, shyt and fukk, fight or flight

Because animals aren’t “bound by society” (how do you know this? That’s arrogant of you to suggest this) “all they know is eat, shyt and fukk, fight or flight” (again, how do you know this? That’s arrogant of you to suggest this).

That is what you said. If that’s not what you meant, then just clarify and move the conversation forward. But pretending it’s a matter of poor comprehension is cowardly.

Again you’re missing the point: you’ve put them in a box saying that’s their way of life. You don’t know that they don’t have societal rules to follow. You don’t know that their “intelligent” life consists of just eating, shytting, fukking, fighting and fleeing.

In fact there are CaC produced documentaries and shows that suggest there is more to the way of life of many species than the box you put them in.

Cats and Dogs don't have a "societal" way to follow

The only animals that come close are ants, bees, lions and cattle animals.

See, there’s that arrogance I’m talking about.

Domesticated and urbanized cats/dogs absolutely have a societal structure to follow, one orchestrated in large part by humans. Wild animals may have a societal structure that we don’t comprehend. But just cuz we don’tunderstand it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

the construction is not what is crazy to me
what's crazy to me the collective mind of the ants
it's like wtffffffff
how did they communicate let's to this in this specific way and that
perhaps they didn't communicate, perhaps they already knew if one ant thought about it
I've always been fascinated with the cohesiveness of ants.

Bro, I understand you are not saying they are stupid but you are still putting them in a box
You may in fact think of them to be very intelligent beings, but despite that you are still putting them in a box
that is what is being conveyed to you

To me it goes back to perception & scale.
How we perceive ants and how they perceive us even, maybe, but maybe not the latter but who knows
I personally think that ants are programmed to be like that, but the thing is even I am being arrogant by saying this, and realizing that is important.
I am perhaps thinking that they are programmed to be architechts like that and trivializing it to programmation because of scale, as in I see them as super small insects.

It reminds of me of settler colonization, where europeans came to America and stole the land from the natives.
And white people often say "see the natives didn't own the land because they had no real ownership of any land".
So because of papers nah it's not yours.
But wtf, they lived how they lived, just because it didn't conform to our way of ownership doesn't mean they didn't own it.
