Study: Humans Love Dogs More than They Love Other Humans
[PJ] I have two children ‐ two human children, to be clear. The fact that I actually have to clarify what species my children are is annoying, nonsensical, and demonstrates how far down the rabbit hole of absurdity our society has plunged. If you doubt the need for my clarification, let me introduce you to a recent study that reveals that many humans love dogs more than they love other humans.First, though, let me make it clear that dogs are not humans. Dogs are not even close to being humans, and treating them even remotely like a human is a self-contradictory action. Yet, as the Independent points out, "According to two studies, we’re more likely to empathise with struggling dogs than people in difficulty." One of the studies began with the researchers circulating two solicitations for donations. Both solicitations asked, "Would you give £5 to save Harrison from a slow, painful death?" In one, Harrison was a human boy; in the other, a dog. Guess which Harrison received the most positive responses. Posted by: Besoeker 2019-01-26 |
