I Think We Need To Normalize Using "people" As A Species Neutral Word.

I think we need to normalize using "people" as a species neutral word.

Like idk in my brain the word people just doesn't automatically = human. To me it's just a way to signify intelligence and individuality, and to emphasize the need for respect towards another creature, not specific to any one species.

Dogs can be people, mice can be people, dragons can be people, humans can be people, birds can be people, elves can be people, robots can be people, and so on.

It's also (in my opinion) just much easier than always saying "beings" or "individuals" when referring to varying assortments of creatures.

wore my coyote tail to school the other day and on my way out of class my friend was telling me about how her younger cousin, who i would guess is probably like 9 or 10, has a bunch of tails like mine, likes to sit in cat trees, and "wants to be a cat so bad". and in my brain i was just like "shit man, idk how to tell you this but i think your cousin is actually just a cat."
