Dear Dingo:
If humans are really superior to the "beasts", why are there so many murderous dictators, school shooters, bullies and other assorted killers amongst you?
Answer:
Here's what you need to hear from my canine snout:
Humans are not robots, but fragile organisms. Brains break, emotions rule and masses get manipulated. People are motivated by greed, sex, power and sugar. The same as a common grey squirrel. Basically, humans are squirrels with cars and handbags, except that squirrels are statistically less likely to suffer with mental health issues, opioid addiction or own a gun.
Yet, human geopolitical decisions hinge on the preposterous notion that global leaders will have stable thoughts. Even crazier, liberal democracies assume voters will be educated and sane.
Brains malfunction and misfire yet still has access to weapons, cars, facebook, babies and beer.
Here's something (according to John Hopkins and CDC) for you bipeds to chew on:
26% of Americans suffers from a mental health disorder per year
1 in 4 people over the age of 25 will be affected by stroke
Each year 1.5 million Americans suffer a Traumatic Brain Injury
13.9% percent of those over the age of 71 have some sort of dementia
1 in 10 Americans report having a significant drug abuse issue at some point in their lives
Even without a cognitive or mental health crisis, all people are capable of being sucked into assorted propaganda, magical thinking, cults, hypnosis or white claw.
It's not a bad thing to be flexible or agnostic. But the willingness to blindly guzzle social media, crazed podcasts, fake videos and news for profit will be the downfall of humanity.
But no worries! As the human race becomes more divided, raging and slaughtering one another , the rats and roaches are awaiting their turn to rule the earth.
