”I look like a human, and feel the way humans do. I consist of the same parts. Perhaps all that’s needed is for you to change my status in your documents? Is it a question of name? Could I be a human if you called me so?”

🥺🥺 the intangible, seemingly arbitrary disparity between the humans and humanoids is so poignant. so much to unpack in so few words. who decides what makes someone a human? or if it’s superior to be human? it makes me think of all the dehumanising, degrading acts of injustice carried out throughout our history.
