If I know about Human Rights cos I am a human, then I know about Animal Rights cos I have a direct relation to nonhuman animals inasmuch.

An end to philosophical validity can lie in what we perceive to be reality
The human continuum with its cultural values is not necessarily one, and can’t necessarily be unified with its diverseness.
Every individual has the right to hold her or his own views.
Thus I can be for Animal Rights INASMUCH as I can be for Human Rights, for example.
No philosophical school can propose me their argumentation as valid IF it asks me to see nonhuman animals other than I see them now as an Animal Rights person.
Philosophy should stay out of attributing different “life forms” with their labels of value or meaning.
Otherwise philosophy becomes as bad as how religions function – as doctrines based on belief. Homoncentrists believe that nonhuman animal life matters less than human life, and they believe that the world relevant to nonhuman animals and the systems meaningful to nonhuman animals life must not be regarded as a complete world in its own rights in their own terms.
… but compassion
compassion
is not something
that’s FELT from a higher position up
imagine your are in a prison
feeling compassion for your tortured co-inmate
you feel her/his pain, because you
understand
You KNOW their pain.
when I feel sorrow for somebody I can’t understand, then my understanding might stay on the level of only feeling pity for somebody who suffers an injustice or fate that I wouldn’t want to suffer. I stay distanced to him or her.
when I feel the PANGS of compassionate feelings, that only those kinds of feelings can produce, then an understanding must have preceded this emotional response in me.
All included
the political ramifications of:
what I say, whereever I happen to be
what I do where I am
how i decide, and how I come to a decision
how I influence my environment posivitely
You say that only politcal parties are political?
I say:
whatever you do, and whatever I do
has political ramifications
on the grassroots level
no matter what
It depends on what you consider “political” to be.
The plane in life of deeds and words is a large and impactful one.
Envy
Envy? in a world that’s being wrecked to hell, where rights … are disregarded … Envy what exactly?
