@MrNoMoMoney Weâve gone in circles long enough. The difference between reaction and sentience is clear, and sentience is what matters in ethics. Iâll leave it at that.

@MrNoMoMoney Suffering requires awareness. Reaction is not awareness. A goldfish forgets quickly, but it still feels pain, fear, and joy. A plant does not. Adapting to an environment is not the same as experiencing suffering.

@MrNoMoMoney Elephants and goldfish canât climb trees, but they can feel pain, fear, and joy. A plant canât. Reacting isnât experiencing. Sentience isnât just âlife,â it is the ability to suffer.

@MrNoMoMoney Science didnât âdiscoverâ animal sentience, it confirmed what was already obvious. With plants, itâs the opposite. No brain, no nervous system, no sentience. Reacting to stimuli isnât the same as feeling pain.

@MrNoMoMoney Sentience isnât about movement or adaptation, itâs about experience. No brain, no nervous system, no ability to feel, no sentience. A plant reacts, an animal suffers. Thatâs the difference.

@MrNoMoMoney You feel emotional pain because you are sentient. A plant does not. Pain without awareness isnât suffering, itâs just a reaction. Thatâs why ethics are built on sentience, not just existence.

@MrNoMoMoney Plants donât have pain receptors, emotions, or a will to live. Animals do. The difference isnât silence, itâs suffering. Thatâs exactly why veganism is rooted in reverence for life.
