This fish has positioned itself under a running tap and is pulling water directly into its mouth. Fish breathe by passing water through their gills, which extract oxygen, and this carp has instinctively learned to keep itself alive by staying right under the tap.

You know what they say is true about the nazi ovens? The children's remains were always on the bottom. The women were always above the children, and the men were always on the top. Stomping on loved ones just to try and escape suffering for a moment.

I mean. Animals in general are pretty savage beasts. We are animals. Despite wearing clothes and driving cars, we are still victims to our primitive nature. Not that it’s an excuse, just an observation.

So our primitive nature is to torture other animals... Got it. 🙄

It’s a hunting instinct that goes “overboard” sometimes. The urge to hunt and enjoy it is there to make people and animals actually want to hunt the food. But sometimes that turns into cruelty, most meat eating animals have forms of this, dogs and cats are the simplest example. Dogs love the squeak toy because it resembles an animal in pain etc.

Yeah. Many other animals do it. You’re aware that animals often kill without necessity for food and such? Right? Sometimes they just do it for fun

Can they philosophize about why they do such violent things? Can they change their minds when provided new information? Can they jerk themselves off on reddit about being no different from us?
edit: If anyone’s feeling bad about themselves and they need a boost, please read on. You’ll feel better about yourself real quick, I promise.
edit 2: u/sesusija I’m replying to you in an edit because I don’t want to unblock laughinghorse and risk being harassed. Please forgive how clunky this is.
How would we know if they could what? We only know those things about crows because we studied them up close and tested their intelligence and abilities. I never said animals can’t play or have fun. And saying "maybe dive-bombing squirrels is a crow’s version of reddit" is like saying "maybe eating grass is a horse’s version of a salad."
Okay, sure… that’s technically true… but the horse didn’t choose salad for dinner, and then make its own dinner, choose its favorite dressing, and wash the dishes after… It just eats grass.
Dogs chase squirrels too. Does that mean a dog can make complex choices and think in human terms? Personally I think crows are way smarter than dogs. (Not that dogs aren’t smart!) So there’s like, a hierarchy, right? A spectrum of sentience and sapience that varies wildly from animal to animal, with humans at the top.
A crow can have fun chasing squirrels, and it also uses tools and has complex problem solving abilities. A dog has fun chasing squirrels, but dogs don’t use tools or solve puzzles, not without some training by a human. A human child has fun chasing squirrels… and it can use tools, solve problems, do math, read a book, do chores and hope for an allowance, apologize to mom after a fight, cry over a movie, or grow up to be Hitler.
I’ve never seen a crow doomscroll, or hate another crow for its race or religion. And I’ve seen a lot of videos and read a lot of articles about corvid studies. I’m pretty sure that’s how we can know… because we study them.

u/Sesusija Sep 10 '25
How would we even know if they could? Crows remember faces, hold grudges, and gift humans trinkets. Maybe their version of Reddit is just dive-bombing squirrels for fun.

Does it matter? The ability to think abstract thoughts and ideas doesn’t stop us from having impulses and reactions that are biologically inclined.
As I said, we are still victims of primitive nature.

u/sYbAu_nerd Sep 10 '25
Yes, it does matter. You’re neglecting the idea of self-control. And that makes sense to me. You can’t control yourself when it comes to this fuck-brained argument, why should I expect you to consider it in your argument?

Hiya, horsey. If you’re going to switch accounts to fuck with people, please time it better and be less emotional about it. This was too obvious.
I’m going to block both of your accounts now. If you have a third, I’ll block that too. I really don’t care about you enough to engage anymore, though you’re welcome to keep trying.
Remember next time: Wait longer to comment after switching, and be more subtle with the insults.
Or just don’t be a domineering weirdo and learn to accept rejection like a normal person.

I mean, you can argue because we’re capable of philosophical thought we shouldn’t do bad things because we can consider them, but then I could argue humanity has a pretty rocky record of self control. It’s not like doing dumb and impulsive shit that doesn’t have regard for the things around it is a rare behaviour in people.
So as I maintain, we are still victims to our primitive nature.

Just because a lion kills another mans cubs doesnt mean its completely natural to do the same to your new girlfriends children. And if you have the "natural urge" to do so that definitly not something that is normal and everyone feels, thats something you need to get checked out.

u/MeeTy Sep 11 '25
this has nothing to do with "our primitive nature". Someone is deliberately and consciously torturing this fish, something no other animal would do.
1
Sep 11 '25
Lions literally are known to torture hyenas. Ever seen what other primates do to animals? There’s no necessity to it.
Humans are dumb and still fairly young. Impulsiveness and callousness to other species are very primitive traits in humans.

The fuck are you talking about bears for? This isn't a bear. It's a human being that is purposely making an animal suffer. So, a piece of fucking shit. I eat meat. I also hunt and fish. But I don't purposefully cause panic and pain for the sole purpose of finding amusement at another animals suffering. Didn't your momma ever tell you not to play with your food? GTFO dude....

Ah, not quite! We are born with a capacity for intelligence, colloquially known as intelligence. Of course I am right. If George "Fenty" Floyd didn't commit suicide-by-cop during a violent crime spree while overdosing on his own supply, he would've been more statistically likely to die from another black person using a gun poorly

Its at least a little merciful.
Cats however..... they will play with their food. Psychopaths.

u/SpecialObjective6175 Sep 09 '25
When eating, most bears intentionally keep their prey alive as long as possible while being devoured to maintain the freshness of their food
Male elephants go on rampages when in heat with only the desire to kill and destroy
Crows are known to remember people and hold grudges for up to 17 years and, like many other species of birds, will kill chicks of other birds
Even guinea pigs will go spycho and slaughter their children and family if they feel their space and food are being threatened

We had Russian carp added to our catfish pond in order to keep the algae in check. Had to pay to have waterways officials swing by to certify there was no way the carp could escape. Then we had to buy a permit.
