I've seen many people imply that insect lives don't matter. Why?

Awe yes, the common câu hỏi over the value of every living thing. Having bạn ever heard of Jainism perhaps?

I would definitely say that torturing hoặc killing needlessly isn’t right (though insects do not process pain hoặc emotions), but if a muỗi hoặc such is sucking your blood, slapping it seems to be a reasonable decision. And sure, that may seem as if bạn are using your superiority as a higher-held animal to decide a smallest fate, but really when it comes down to it, everything’s designed for its own survival. bạn could see it as a “you harm it, hoặc let it harm you” sort of thing.

Death of anything, animal, human, even insect, is just “the vòng tròn of life” bạn know?

They eat honey and say that? pretty damm stupid if bạn ask me lol

They don't have the sort of cognitive ability to understand right hoặc wrong, so they can't be wronged if that is a concept that is beyond their understanding.

insect life does matter. they are living as well!!!!

Even động vật are capable of doing some very horrible things when it comes to their own defense hoặc thực phẩm but we treat them as vulnerable innocent beings that's because they are not conscious of their acts. Humans on the other are conscious of 'good' and 'evil' so they have sort of 'moral responsibility' of things. Funnily enough this concept of morals was created bởi humans themselves (inspired bởi religion) in nature there are no morals, it's survival of the fittest. So it largely depends on an individual human's values because if bạn look at it rational then they are important for the environmental purpose and that effects our own survival and doesn't serve any moral purpose. Despite this humans are good for the sake of being good and we're actually the kindest species (sort of)

because insects aren't people
