[P] I really do believe that cruelty against otherness is baked into neurotypicals, I don't know what happens to some neurodivervent brains to break us out of it, but I do think the commonality of a fucked dopaminergic system can't be ignored. From all I can muster, a dopaminergic systsm that doesn'f work right results in greater empathy and less tribalism, less of an obsession with harming otherness. So, lobsters.

[P] They're "concerned" it'll affect the flavour (it doesn't) or they don't think it's "worth it." I mean, if humans must eat lobster? I'm sure the lobster would think that a quick death with far less pain is worth it! I was of the opinion that one would absolutely need to be a sociopath to work in a kitchen where lobaters are boiled, until I learned of how neurotypicals process otherness and empathy, which helped.
