    the rich are going to start having kids that live unusually long, have unusually similar symmetric features, and have unusually high intelligence.

    I’m not vegan or even vegetarian. I don’t eat pigs because they are very intelligent and some, like the ones in the picture, are just too cute. I will tear up some chicken or fish though. Chickens are about as smart as earthworms.
