    All human lives are worthy

    Don’t mean to sound racist but we just have a very specific definition and idea of what “human” is.

    /s /sarcasm /this is sarcasm

      Im curious if you can make a definition of human to exclude all the often hated people without being too specific or having ridiculous side-effects

        We can’t even agree on what makes a human.

        Some definitions use the homo clade, other are specific to the homo sapiens species. Otoh I’m pretty sure most people would consider Neanderthals humans. Homo Sahelanthropus I’m not so sure.

        btw your OP then clarified that their comment was sarcasm.

        They explore what a proper definition of humanity should be in the webcomic Freefall.

        The main character is an AI and recognizes quite a few life forms as “human” or “people,” that wouldn’t be readily apparent to many in real life.
