Is this a zoophilia thing?
No, it's basically>SAVE THE PENGUINS! PENGUINS ARE CUTE LITTLE BUTLERS, SO ADORABLE!>but starfish? zooplankton? fuck that
>>5052237>see people having empathy for cute animals>Immediately think of people fucking animalsWhat mental illness is this?
>>5052244It’s called being a furry.
>>5052237It's probably from the same psychology of in-group preference.The average person probably doesn't experience true empathy, just preferential thought processes based on experience.
>>5052257The dumb animal instinct is true empathy. It’s very automatic, people cant choose to have it or not. What you speak of is learned sympathy and virtue which is ironically more common among psychopaths than sane people. Much, much more common. After enough life experience, you will begin to be suspicious of people who act empathetic towards extremely ugly and disgusting creatures like pitbulls and venomous snakes.
>>5052257in group preference IS EMPATHY, the only logical form at least. What's good for your family is the greatest good Also deer are HOT AF & I will own them & fuck them. Pure Sex Creatures (second only to Wolves & Big Cats like PUMA)Chuddy deer-fuckcel ZGTOWs keep winning
>>5052237No. It's a good weapon through if you're looking to save like a salamander you don't use the salamander as a spokesman you find the cutest thing in that environment like a deer and make it about them because then the simple minded people who only have empathy for cute things will pay attention.
>>5052238Why should you not save starfish and plankton?
>>5052516you should, but most people think like that anon's post. plankton aren't particularly cute so people don't care how many of them die
>>5052274Based deer enjoyer
>>5052279This, living things within the same ecosystem are intrinsically linked together anyways so if you're good enough you could lump in any disgusting slimy creature with some cute and cuddly thing.
>>5052279Salamanders are cute though
