Why do we have an innate reaction of disgust/horror when we see an image of a virus? It should just be abstract geometry to us, given we never evolved to see that small and it's only using recent technology that we can. Is it ancestral memory from when we were single celled organisms?
>>16885845Dunno, trained biologist so my "disgust response" is pretty much overwritten. But looking at the thing I notice a resemblance with a tick, or similar blood-sucking insect. An intrinsic aversion here would run back well to our ape ancestors.
>>16885845I don't, I think they look cool
>>16885845>wejust you libtard
>>16885845>Why do we have an innate reaction of disgust/horror when we see an image of a virus?do we? I don't. even when I saw that as a kid. I thought it looked cool.
>>16885845>wewhat is this we magatard?

>>16885845So minimalistic, it's an abstract art to the cell membrane. Like sperm.
>>16885845Because it looks like a robotic spider. Spiders are scary and robots are soulless.
>>16885845to me it looks like old school robotics/mechanics, aka human made and old school
>>16886294>just you libtardWhy don't you weirdos stay in pol and stop cosplaying science
>>16885845it look like bug dumbass.
We have an innate reaction of horror whenever we encounter this sign and it is even more abstract than the virus.
>>16886697no we don't.
>>16885845Viruses look different depending on family it belongs to. Also viruses don't really look like abstract shapes. Viruses are really tiny, like we are talking nanometers, so they often simply the design in illustrations.
