The wall built at the Mexican border is creating a huge environmental and ecological disaster and the extinction of more than 90 animal species
It prevents the reproduction of animals, they must cross to find mates, food and water
It is destroying the desert ecological system.
Mixing large quantity of cement is depleting the aquifer and water system
Local farmers and peasants are losing their lands due to expropiation and eminent domain
The wall produce over flooding during the raining season and affect the life of many animals
Bulldozing has destroyed many Native American burial and cultural sites
It is a disaster. The construction companies are making huge profits, ironically they are using Mexican workers
” The word “black” was used strictly to mean dark, evil, or hidden, long before modern racial categories existed.”
In early and classic film melodrama too, villains of the piece wore black or dark colours, while heroes wore lighter colours.
Black too is the colour of death and funerals in the West. In East Asia it is white.

Black is the absence of colours. The black panther is a melanised animal
Collagen is a business based on pseudoscience. After human beings get old, the amount of collagen in the body starts to diminish; it does not come back by eating collagen. In the old days, families used to eat chicken bones to obtain collagen, but it did not work. Histologists have said that it is a business based on false science. They are killing whales to obtain collagen and sell it for very high prices
We are still scientifically ignorant; we do not understand the important role that animals have in our environmental and ecological system.
Natives Americans were labelled savages, but the real savages were the ones who killed them like animals.
They killed more than 76 million, but they took care of the animals; they kept rivers and oceans clean; they protected the salmon and the wolves. They only took from nature what was needed for their family and community.y
During the COVID pandemic, many animals reproduced in large quantities.
Deforestation motivates animals to leave their habitat looking for food, and they come into contact with humans, and many diseases are transmitted because we do not have the immunity to resist those diseases; they do have natural immunity.
Now, they want to kill the Mexican grey wolves, but they do not know that those wolves protect us against diseases; we are just a bunch of ignoramuses. They want to kill them to protect the profits of the meat industry.
When one protests against cruelty face to face with others, as I was doing back in 2008, you wouldn’t believe the sarcasm, ridicule and viciousness of many of the general public. Their urge to diminish the gravity of pain and death being inflicted on nonhumans is overwhelming. The urge to trivialise it, to make the protestor laugh with them at it, is unbelievable, it is so disgusting.
The problem is that most people believe that they came from another world; we came from inferior animals. Some animals have more natural abilities than humans; some animals can survive without their mother, and human beings need their mother for several years; some animals know how to feed themselves, and we depend on our parents for several years; some of them resist cold weather, and they have their own natural protection. If god created us as they believe, why are we so imperfect? Some animals have a better circulatory and respiratory system than human beings. When we had four legs, we were able to run faster
I must dispute the adjective inferior. There is no inferior nor superior in nature, only diversity.
I know from the rest of what you say that you agree with me.
I also do not say animals and humans, which is as absurd as saying haddocks and fishes, or woods and trees. I say fellow animals, or at least, other animals.
It is also wrong to say apes and humans, because humans are apes: specifically African apes. We are African apes.Ego vs. Eco illustration.
I am just using traditional biological terms; inferior animals are the invertebrates, but they are not inferior either; it is just a denomination, and some humans believe that they are superior, and white people believe that they are superior to black men, or brown ( another traditional term), and we come from the same groups of animals, or living entities; even more, the concept of human life is incorrect; it is just a religious concept. Sometimes we must use traditional concepts.
Some historians, or anthropologists like Engels, used the expression barbarism, and it is just a denomination used in certain historical period; and Francis Jennings rejected that denomination. Some historians used the expression Western or Eastern civilisation, and there is only one civilisation; and it was rejected by Francis Jennings. Some biologists have rejected the conception of Ernest Hackeal because they think that we did not come from animals ( traditional term), and now they are accepting his conception.
Sometimes I use the traditional term of jews, but I know that being Jewish is not a race, a nation, or a nationality, and there is no such thing as Jewish blood or an extra chromosome; we have the same amount of genes and the same amount of chromosomes, and the nation and nationality are an invention of the ruling class; we can use a broom and remove all the flags and nations from the face of the earth; they are just imaginary lines; I have not seen them from any aeroplane. We can talk about the catholic, Islamic, and Buddhist blood too, and it is also a wrong conception.
Some human beings ( traditional term ) believe that their nationality is the best one, and that they have a particular culture that is better than the others, and for them everything is a culture, and they believe that to have culture you need an academic education
” Sometimes we must use traditional concepts.” Why?
I disagree. Language must challenge erroneous concepts. Otherwise it only buttresses them. We must use language that makes people stop and think.We don’t say “Socialist Russia” or “Marxist Cuba”, do we? It’s quite right that we don’t.
Similarly, speciesist language must be challenged.
Why make a point of saying “inferior” when “other” is a simpler word that does the job without reinforcing the fallacious and outdated ladder/progressivist view of biological evolution?
Some famous biologists and scientists are atheists, but they support capitalism or bourgeois liberalism, and the critique of religion is the critique of the economic system and vice versa, and they support the killing of animals that is done by this economic system, but peasants who are not atheists or intellectuals love their animals and the earth.
I breed birds, and they know me, and they eat from my hands, and sometimes I let them fly away, and some of them came back. We had ducks, and they followed me when I was walking in the backyard.
I am a self-educated agronomist because I love plants and I love nature, and I use binoculars to watch wild birds. Our cats know when we are coming home, and they can smell us from a long time away.
My son loves all his pets, and they love him. When he is not at home, they get desperate, and they wait for him at the front door
Many of the spgb articles use the expression communists and the Socialist Party knows that they are not communists. I did not say it all the time; I said it sometimes, but we can also give an explanation.
I had a teacher who used the expression inferior animals, but he also explained that we are not inferior; sometimes we must be flexible.
Doctors cannot use sophisticated terms, or Latin or Greek words, with their patients; they must use traditional terms, and sometimes they are wrong too. Senos (Spanish plural word for women’s breasts ); in Latin, it means hollow or cavity. Pathology means the study of human suffering or pain, but the correct definition is the study of diseases.
My grandfather used to tell me: You can not look for the legs of a cat; you will never find them, but some people will see five legs, or they are too picky
