the book, posing a question: hey, do we have a moral obligation to imagine different kinds of intelligence and treat beings with lesser intelligence by our standards or different ways of experiencing the world with respect and dignity?
the book, answering it: no! we have a moral obligation to make sure everyone can talk exactly like a human! problem solved!!!


*sighs*

I wonder if the author is aware that there are humans with intellectual disabilities existing right now, and some of them do not have especially complex language use, and some of them do not use language at all.
