Speciesism
– is not something unintentional, even if automatized for a big part in peoples thinking,
– it’s embedded in human history, it did not come overnight,
– it has many forms and problematic facets,
– and it is interconnected.
If we look at the foundations of this concept of species hierarchy (i.e. speciesism), we can see that a.) their fallacies can be dismantled, and b.) there is no option of not trying.
On what does speciesism base?
Different key aspect of speciesism lay in our perspectives and epistemologies coming from our angles of Religion/Spirituality, Rationality/Science, Philosophy, Culture/Civilization, Individuality/Society, in other words: the same factors that influence our outlooks on other humans and nature/the natural world.
The conflicts stemming from the systems underlying our views are comprehensive. Speciesism however is an expression of the fallacies of such systems.
