What point?

That, in terms of values and free will, you've collapsed the entire hierarchy of being. Human=duck=planarian=corn.

The key difference is the language is the language. Without it, you can't be a liar and a hypocrite or a fool. With animals there is no false pretense.

In your description humans are, if anything, worse than animals. Your deep misanthropy is another point.

you can't be a liar and a hypocrite or a fool.

Only those who see themselves as, and act as though they are, pleasure-seeking lower animals are wise, honest and discerning.

Another "words mean their opposite."
