I definitely think this is backwards. its the humans that are less likely to overhunt the animals that they evolved alongside. If the animals are part of your culture/religion/ecosystem you’re not going to wantonly destroy them. But as humans spread, the animals may not have meant as much to them culturally, or they didn’t know how to not overexploit them. Like the first people in north america were likely a key factor in the loss of megafauna, but then became stewards of many existing megafauna/ecosystems as their culture adapted and they became more grounded in place

I mean, this is semantic. People have been treated as property. Just like land has been treated as property. Is it right? Fuck no. Let’s build a world where this is not true, but right now and historically it is

“Property owners” covers both and is more concise

Where meme

I never had a good way to ingest info, but i setup a self-hosted FreshRSS instance a few months ago and it’s completely changed how i consume information for the better. I spend a lot less time scrolling through shit that never interested me much in the first place
