    This doesn’t prove your claim, which you have failed to substantiate at all.

    As I said, it’s the same cancerous, selfish inability to acknowledge what is most likely true that theists exhibit.

    Do you believe a purple unicorn lives on the moon? I don’t. We have never observed a unicorn of any color, on earth or on the moon. Similarly, we have never observed plant consciousness, despite many attempts. Does that prove there is not a purple unicorn on the moon? No. But if you tell me there is without evidence, without knowing yourself, you’re lying to me. Lies cost lives.

      i have never said plants think or are conscious. I’m saying you can’t prove they don’t, and you helpfully explained why what I said is true.

        No, I helpfully explained why your dumbassery is wrong and harmful.

        Plants can’t think. This is not controversial. Grow up.
