I wouldn't help wild animal
Maybe I would try to help if it was dog, but probably wouldn't, because I don't know how to fight snakes

Because
1. many people have greater sympathy towards herbivores
2. the Deer was saved from death by direct action, while the snake is (presumably) not destined to starved just because it could not eat said deer

People care about lesser beings too much.
2022-06-26 07:59
No, I eat meat, and the animal industry is torture for animals and I don't need to eat meat to survive. So, it is morally hypocritical for me to care about animals as I support animals unnecessarily dying like peas in a pod for the sake of giving me pleasure through eating meat.
You jealous of my meta ethics mens???

Because people are hypocrites?!

A snake can't eat a deer so you're making the snake waste less time too
2022-06-26 08:01
because since the beginning of civilization we have been taught to help the oppressed in every situation no matter who is right or wrong
so a snake attacking a deer is seen as an attacker going after a victim and we feel propelled to help the victim even though we dont know the repercussions of our act

Doing the good doesn’t mean it’s right
If you watch wild animals documentaries they never intervene in those fights and that’s the right . We people who watch the documentary yell save it save it

because he wants to eat that deer.
2022-06-26 08:13
wtf bro, did you not know that snakes after eating a large meal like a deer can go months some even up to a year without eating. so they just chill. all youve done is made a hungry dangerous snake in feeding mode.

1)The question is why was that person not scolded because he had disturbed a hungry snake?
>The people also appreciated the people who had saved the deer.
That person was not scolded because he was not the only one involved.
2)Why did you free the deer because he was being entangled by a snake? Why do you bother a hungry snake?
The person freed the deer because it was being killed in slow and horrible way, the snake on the other hand did not desperately need to consume that deer for its survival because it was strong enough to subdue a deer. Also humans are empathic beings and try to relate other's experiences with themselves which results in that person choosing to stop the deer from getting strangled and eaten alive instead of the invisible hunger that motivated the snake.

Case of one man's loss is another man gain, Our righteousness depends on things which we have more sympathy or favour for. All about which side are you on.
Logically, snakes have been accounted for more deaths of human than deers and a symbol of negativity so we favour against it.
2022-06-26 08:57
I believe that’s because many humans sympathize more with certain animals (mammals usually). For example you might expierence that while watching a documentay where little penguins, other animals are eaten by predators.

i will help him because i let my emotion control me.
2022-06-26 09:15
What with that scenario. A whimsy snake trying to eat a fucken deer? That's just be helping snake also, to make it give up on prey beyond it's abilities. Go find something your own size, snek.

respect philosopher hltv +1
in this scenario of course I let snake consume deer. Everyone needs to eat
2022-06-26 17:22
a deer is an animal that requires much more complexity and is harder to develop
i think a deer deserves more to live, because its complex and does more things
snakes there are many, who cars if one dies it only lives to kill
2022-06-26 17:30
where is the philosophy in here
2022-06-26 17:31
as creatures we don't like to be eaten, we'd rather survive and pass on our genes. it's ironically much easier for us to relate to trying to save someone than trying to kill them, because that's what we'd want ourselves

Survival of the fittest
Deer = cute
Snake = ugly
Deer has the evolutionary advantage by appealing to humans (most powerful animal on earth) snake has the evolutionary disadvantage by repulsing humans. Thus the deer is the fittest and thus it survives.
Also it's not disrupting mother nature. Whether you like it or not, you are part of mother nature just like a snake or a deer is.

Im hungry and going to get bbq brisket couldnt bother to read, maybe when im back

You did it for your own selfish reasons and to feel admired, nothing noble in that. The deer will be killer by another python or crocodile or tiger in the future. You dont really care about the deer, you care about your own self. Its hypocritical considering intervention.
