What would you say is “unnatural”?

[🌠Deusgo]

I’ve seen the word thrown around a lot in previous threads with people using the word a lot to describe lab grown meat compared to killing lots of animals. Is me writing on a piece of paper using a pen that were made in factories unnatural? Or is the production of those items the unnatural part? Or is unnatural a word with which it’s definition changes depending on the users idea or ideology of a subject?

I agree. Vaccines aren’t natural, but they were nessasary to keep people alive and reduce the mortality of humanity and our pets. Farms would also come under this no? We are the only animal that farms it’s food both with plants and animals

We are not the only thing on earth that cultivates or keeps other species for a food source.

What are they Mr odd

Dogs.

True, dogs wouldn’t be a thing without humans

[a profile]

ACKsually, dogs evolved from raiding stockpiled food from other stockpile predators, such as cassowary and other large birds. The evolutionary pathway exists independently of and long before evidence of primitive human campfires, cavedwelling, tooling, or even stockpiling;

it is simply the case that we were highly compatiable and that 'dogs' grew out of this relationship insofar as we 'defined' the dog as the dog.

as such, humans are unnatural even if the creature the word human describes isn't.

Fire is a natural phenomenon. Lightning strikes a tree and it catches ablaze.

What makes humans unnatural? Were they placed here by non-natural means?

they have constructed an identity which deviates from nature, just as they have taken the dog and named it dog. nothing need change, only the words.

they have created nature and unnatural, to suit their own purposes.

Do ants farm, I assumed they mostly scavenge food, though some do enslave others

What would be 'nature' in that regard? Are ants unnatural, then? Is it construction or language? Other animals communicate. Or is it just words?
Beavers make dams to suit a purpose. Is that also unnatural?

each human unnaturally creates according to the nature they choose to reinforce.

the beaver is unnatural; the bird is unnatural; the human is unnatural; the worm is unnatural; soil is unnatural; plants are unnatural

They aren't "liking their job," they're indifferent to it entirely. All it is, is just additional income. Basically what I'm saying is, they literally don't need the job.

They do. You have multiple species of ants that literally grow/tend a fungal mass or keep another species as cattle within their colony for food. In fact, I know there are at least a few species of insects (other than ants) that farm fungus.
