Some animals display more 'human' qualities than actual humans.
I remember I was once extremely down. Like. Depressed down. I was with supposed 'family members' who were partly the reason I was feeling that way. Guess what?
A dog came over and gave me a hug. Go figure. Humans can be really cruel. I treat my fur babies like human kids based on the fact they give me unconditional love. You can count on animals. People, not so much. 🐱💖
And some animals kill people. Dogs are one of the most dangerous animals on the planet, mostly because of strays with rabies in developing countries, who bite children, who then die from rabies. Some animals cannibalise their own offspring, including cats and dogs. Animal parents often abandon their offspring. Chimpanzees and some other primates kill just for fun, leaving bodies uneaten. A lot of dogs will do this, too, since they have a hunting instinct - cats as well, will kill birds for fun rather than for food. I love cats, but they're decimating native species. People go on and on about how 'animals are better parents' or 'animals are more compassionate' but it's just not true. Yeah, we wage war against each other, but animals absolutely would do the same thing if they had the means to. Hell, rival chimpanzee troupes will often battle each other, stealing the babies of the other troupe to cannibalise them. They don't need to do that for food. They do it because they know it hurts the other troupe. Nature is absolutely brutal.
In short, can I add 'people who blindly think animals are perfect' onto this list?

Yeah nature is brutal and life is tough and not fair......but, im not bringing a chimpanzee troupe in my house, and my dogs arent killing anybody. Neither are my cats, or my ducks and geese. Point being, you can observe lifes brutality in all aspects and still love that what surrounds you. Whether it be a person or an animal. And the fact that my dogs cannot rise up and war against others.....even if they would if they could.....means i get them as at their best, a fun loving companion that works well as a soothing calm distraction when needed sometimes.
I know all about brutality, the good thing is there is also many cases of direct opposite of that. Its what you choose to focus on i think what matters.10 -

People who value animals over humans. Bury a child and your perspective on that is likely to change.9

kinda agree- i think they def make people more complacent when driving and gives em too much time to start texting and stuff
i been driving stick for a while now and its not bad unless i head into a big city with a lot of stop and go traffic and then its annoying
but also on the plus side- it didn't cost all that much to replace my clutch or master/slave cylinders this past year either. and also its a lot less likely my truck would ever get stolen because so many people just don't know how to drive them anymore.5 -

I miss my little 5 speed, the new tiptronic shifters are just not the same at all...
You definitely feel more action...
Although I don't miss being stuck behind people that drive between 3rd and 4th.... Rage 😑1 -
My M3 has one of the stiffest clutches I have ever used, and I've driven a lot of cars on the track. I couldn't drive the thing for 6 months after my last back surgery, but the way it takes corners makes up for it.1

People that smoke inside with kids there. Absolutely no cares about it whatsoever. It’s bad enough to do it inside anyway but doing it around kids is just extremely selfish imo.7

This may just be a media problem....but I can't stand that EVERYTHING is made political now! I would love to go see a movie to simply be entertained!9

When my grandmother who smoked for many years, passed away from cancer years back...
I went up to speak at her funeral and joked about how all her grandkids now have asthma...
😂... We're that kind of family4 -
