Okay you’re right and I knew you’re right in that specific manner but I’m leaning with that sort of Reddit user Unidan rant about crows and shit, like, nobody is going out there saying fish and including mammals with the very specific exception of people who know their evolutionary relationships and even then it’s only really brought up in instances like this
I mean like nobody’s out there eating beef during Lent or whatever and saying hey i mean, technically… yknow, cow’s a fish
Given how bastardized fasting during Lent has become, that isn’t giving any credence to your argument. Technically you aren’t supposed to eat any meat except for designated feast days, where you are allowed to eat fish.
I don’t know why you would assume the traditions of a religion that, in all honesty shouldn’t respect the idea of an evolutionary taxonomy, would respect changed understandings of evolutionary taxonomy. I’m just waxing poetic this point though, you are correct in the broadest sense.
I mean, I personally think about this shit all the time, but that’s just me.
I mean the mention of Lent was just as an example of how, at least in my opinion (i haven’t done any surveys yo) the common understanding is that mammals =/= fish, not like, that my argument is entirely underpinned by religious basis
but like shhhh shhhh we agree, it’s just that you and i are super special people who know that we’re all fish <3 <3 and most other people don’t but we don’t have to fight <3
either way though I wouldn’t want to be a fish or a whale and have to deal with the parasite and shit they deal with. I know that parasites can get bad for people too but like shit at least we have hands and stuff, we don’t have to like try to breach the surface and hope it dislodges something eating our eyes

Lol The benefit of being a fish is that you aren’t aware you are a fish
Thanks for the biology lesson! Ya’ll are so nerdy sometimes 😅
