Awe yes, the common soalan over the value of every living thing. Having anda ever heard of Jainism perhaps?
I would definitely say that torturing atau killing needlessly isn’t right (though insects do not process pain atau emotions), but if a nyamuk atau such is sucking your blood, slapping it seems to be a reasonable decision. And sure, that may seem as if anda are using your superiority as a higher-held animal to decide a smallest fate, but really when it comes down to it, everything’s designed for its own survival. anda could see it as a “you harm it, atau let it harm you” sort of thing.
Death of anything, animal, human, even insect, is just “the bulatan of life” anda know?

Reminds me of a soalan like “is it wr9ng for a lion to kill for its food”
They don't have the sort of cognitive ability to understand right atau wrong, so they can't be wronged if that is a concept that is beyond their understanding.

sejak that logic, we can kill even humans those who lack sufficient cognitive abilities to grasp morality?
Even Haiwan are capable of doing some very horrible things when it comes to their own defense atau Makanan but we treat them as vulnerable innocent beings that's because they are not conscious of their acts. Humans on the other are conscious of 'good' and 'evil' so they have sort of 'moral responsibility' of things. Funnily enough this concept of morals was created sejak humans themselves (inspired sejak religion) in nature there are no morals, it's survival of the fittest. So it largely depends on an individual human's values because if anda look at it rational then they are important for the environmental purpose and that effects our own survival and doesn't serve any moral purpose. Despite this humans are good for the sake of being good and we're actually the kindest species (sort of)

I know that morality is a social construct because I'm a nihilist, but what I'm trying to understand is the logic of those who say "killing Haiwan for no reason atau torture them is wrong atau killing humans for is wrong yet they are not saying the same for insects.
