    Thanks! I think this is the story that most accurately portrays humans. We will risk our lives to save dogs trapped in icy lakes, or nurse back to health a baby duck, or make a prosthetic for a wounded turtle. This is my favorite story because it doesn't focus on our warlike nature, but our compassion for life other than our own

    To maintain life, in human instinct, is to maintain the life of the group, for that group includes your children, their friends, their livelihood. To sacrifice your own life to ensure others' lives, therefore, is backed by biological impetus and psychological reinforcement. Your father GAVE HIS LIFE for you; you and your friends will be inspired to attempt to do the same should danger come. You may even survive the endeavour, and pass on MORE genes with that urge to put the group before yourself. Thus, Self-Sacrifice, though seemingly unintuitive and wasteful, is selected for in the human genome, and a valuable instinct that protects the tribe.
    As for interspecies altruism, humans have formed an interspecies bond that allowed them to quite possible outcompete their relatives; That of humans and wolves. This bond was built on pity forming into an altruistic, mutually beneficial bond with an entirely different species. That bond has since been supported by genetic selection multitude times, and so the human capacity for interspecies altruism has grown in the past 20,000 years or so, leading to the "Will pack-bond with anything" Stereotypically highly Xeno-social humans the galaxy knows so well today. That instinctual protection has thus transcended the genetic border of species, as protecting your tribe's dogs will ensure your tribe's prosperity, and thus your child's prosperity. And so while it may seem impossible for the logical jump from self-altruism to interspecies altruism to form genetically, Humanity's unique history with dogs has allowed the instinct to form.

    Tip I learned from a major TH-cam creator, Matpat: ask for only one thing, either comment, or subscribe, or a like. Asking for multiple makes any of them less likely; asking for only one of them makes it way more likely to happen. It was in one of the interviews he did close to or right after retiring. He had a 10+ year career and ran 4 channels successfully.

  • @gyrrakavian
    @gyrrakavian 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

    That's the one thing that always bugs me about these sorts of stories. If the alien race is air breathing and space faring, then they should have learned something akin to CPR for their species. Only hard stiff beaks would get in the way of the breathing part of the procedure. The chest compressions should be mimicible by anything with manipulator limbs.

    • @AspenBrightsoul
      @AspenBrightsoul 4 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      So, during CPR, it is no longer recommended to give "the kiss of life." As it turns out, most lungs, especially mammalian lungs, self inflate.
      And if your lungs aren't self inflating... well, you have a bigger issue than breathing.

    • @laurencefraser
      @laurencefraser 3 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      As for chest compressions, given the amount of force required to do that usefully for a human, and the fact that that much force is more than enough to damage the rib cage quite badly, and the need for the compressions to be Rythmic in order to do their thing properly, well, it's not hard to come up with reasons a species might not be able to actually perform that sort of trick.
      Now, being able to perform the task mechanically, in a hospital setting, sure, they absolutely should be able to. But that's a different matter entirely.

    Do not go gentle into that good night,
    Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
    Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
    Because their words had forked no lightning they
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
    Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
    Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
    And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
    Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
    And you, my father, there on the sad height,
    Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
    Do not go gentle into that good night.
    Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
