Material beanis

Yes exactly. It's the dismissal of potential ethical concern of something we actually have no clue what it's capacity for suffering is. I know that thoughts exist because I think them. Does a bee or a worm or a rat or a pigeon have thoughts? Maybe. Can we realistically even find out? We can't ask. Does that make it ok to kill it torture or harm? Probably not.

Still less horrific than the neuron organoids

It's sad that many on the left will use this as an argument against wind and solar. When as usual, it is capitalism being unable to avoid exploitation of Indigenous people through its implementation that's the problem.

Publish then! You'd be the first to tie a specific neuronal activity to a thought or memory

Please share this worldly knowledge you have on what signals in a brain translate into thoughts, memories, pleasure, and discomfort, because you should publish that immediately! Nobody else in the world knows what these things are, whether they exist in organoids, mouse neurons, insect brains, etc. if you have that data don't keep it secret!

I love it, especially because Chomsky's still alive?
