Idk if you had intelligent talking people-rats like in the movie then being excluded from whole industries just because people think they're icky would actually be pretty bigoted.

They aren't icky simply because they're rats, they're ugly because they piss and shit everywhere.

Bigotry and such is unjustified because the people it's targeted at aren't the bigoted things people assume about them. They're normal, same as any of us.

Rats are unsanitary. Even pets shouldn't be in a food prep area. I'm not sorry for any rat furies out there.

(We are all icky)

So intelligent talking people-rats can run a five-star restaurant but can't understand the concept of hygiene? Why? Because "Rats are unsanitary", apparently. Sounds pretty bigoted. Sounds like you found a big-worded sciency way of calling them icky. You're a scientific ratcist.

If they have to live in the walls and don't have sanitary living conditions that's a societal issue, also due to deeply entrenched anti-rodent bigotry.

I can't wait for Ben Shapiro to clip this and use it as evidence of the crazy woke left.

Seems like you kind of just ignored the entire first part of what was written.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I didn't. Intelligent talking people rats are still rats, the rats in the movie behave entirely like normal biological rats, just they can "talk" and stuff too
