Hello comrades. I don't think I've ever posted a particular question on this site but I've been thinking a lot recently about zoos. Specifically should they exist? Are they a good idea to have them while the world is being destroyed by capitalism? Should they exist after the revolution?
Not entertainment. So we can actually live with them and learn about them. It isn't their natural environment true. If they are going to be in a zoo we could try to integrate them into our society to the extent they are comfortable. Most mega fauna are heard animals and would probably do okay. Then again maybe not. We are just as much animals as they are so it seems like it could work to me.
humans are massively different from other animals, in that we can talk and reason and exchange money and count and number our generations. Some other animals are able to do some of these to an extent, bu none so well as humans. Trying to integrate them, especially in the human imitation style you suggest, would be harmful to animals and not really benefit humans. I don't need to see a gorilla pump iron to know it is strong.
I tbink you are being somewhat precious about the capabilities of humans.
We are barely good at those things most of thetime and if we set up a safe environment for them I bet mote animals than we'd rhibk could comfortably adapt. Dunno what they'd do but I am optimistic about trying it. If thrh didn't want to that's fine to though. We don't curre to exe ted thst decentcy to people so ebo knows
