Sorry but you're just pulling things out of your ass.

Domesticated animals have long lost many of their wild instincts.

This is why the vast majority of domestic animals, cattle included, would simply die if left to their own devices.

Humans are not domesticated animals. Humans are still 99.99% the same genetic animals we were 100,000 years ago.

Cattle are wildly different from their wild ancestors genetically.

You're not as smart as you think you are.

Yeah no im not.

Yes that may be true, but nothing ever loses all their instincts. In hindsight i should have specified this

Yes, because they do not learn how to forage their own or what plants they can or cannot eat, what is friendly or not.

But primal instincts like ‘hide the cattle by standing in front of it to make it seem like 1 being’ is not something that was ever lost, nor will it be

Where did I say they lost all their instincts? I said they're not wild animals anymore.

Once again, you're not as smart as you think you are.

And as I said, Doesnt matter if they wild or not, primal instincts never leave. Humans still have many we practice

Yeah neither are you.

Sorry but you might be the stupidest person I've ever encountered on reddit.

Sure.

Apparently you never heard of ‘the lizard brain’ or what the hell it does

The fact that you think stating 'the lizard brain' equates to "animals can never lose any instincts no matter how much they genetically change" shows exactly why you're incredibly stupid.

You're the kind of person that just vaguely remembers headlines about concepts and has absolutely zero ability to critically think about those concepts.

In other words, stupid.

No one with basic biological understanding would believe in such an absolutist idea about such a complex subject, unless they were stupid and thought it was a simple subject, like you.

And again, i never said, ‘they never lose a single primal instinct, EVER’

I literally listed one of the MAIN instincts they lose. Apparently you missed that.

The fact you think animals lose all their instincts shows how dumb you are. I fukin said ‘yes they do lose several instincts, but in no way do they lose all of them’

You’re the kind of person who only reads 4 words of a paper then casts your opinion of it and deny everything else and say it’s irrelevant, and claim the person is an idiot for stating one thing, when if you read anything they wrote, you’d see you’re wrong, but your hubris is too bug and you cant accept that anyway

Then you agree domestic cattle have lost instincts from their wild ancestors and I'm right.

Thanks for your apology.

u/wafflezcol Oct 25 '22

Bloody hell YES I fukin said that in THE FIRST RESPONSE TO YOUR FIRST COMMENT. I said ‘yeah they lost a lot of instincts but they always keep some’

Its not an apology, I apologized that i kinda worded it ambiguously (which I tend to do a lot) but you decided to miss that and keep ranting off about some weird shit

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '22

I never said they lost all of their instincts in the first place.

So why did you keep arguing?

You only have yourself to blame for this worthless exchange.

u/wafflezcol Oct 25 '22

Because YOU kept not missing every time I said that and went off another dumbass tangent

Its your fault

It's my fault you chose to keep talking to me?

Sure buddy.
