Agreed. Nor is there absolute perfection, absolute power, or absolute
correctness. The difference (besides opposable thumbs) is that some
animals refuse to give up their freedom. Ever seen anyone ride a zebra?
They can't be broken like a horse. Why do many animals have a greatly
reduced lifespan when caged? Their spirit is broken. I can't say I've
ever heard of anyone fighting to be oppressed. Only to be free. Now
someone fighting to oppress others, well, that happens every day.
Whether we, as individuals, roll over for them or stand up to them
depends on one's conscience.
