(3rd Person Perspective)

Humans are creatures of desire

Humans are selfish, avaricious creatures

Of course that would be the case

They have a measly lifespan of a short and fleeting one hundred years, after all

Humans are social creatures

A human mother once said that

She said that a human can't live alone

She said that the reason humans try to reach out to other is because of their nature as social creatures

The woman, with the almost infinitesimally small amount of knowledge concerning humans she had acquired in her small lifetime had lead her to that conclusion

She was naive

Too naive

But she didn't know about the immense accuracy that her words struck true with

Humans are social creatures

They try to reach out to their kind. Their primal instincts telling them that, because they are of the same species, that they are allowed to construct communities and societies that are based on the hubristic concepts of 'free speech' or 'equality for all'

Yes, humans are social creatures

But what do humans consider social creatures?

This question doesn't have an answer

For humans at least

Humans can distinguish between social creatures, when they don't even harbor the knowledge—nay, without even trying to ascertain the one and true meaning of social creatures, and what that entrails

The answer is truly simple

What are social creatures?

A social creature is human

And humans are social creatures

It goes both ways

Being a social creature is a definitive proof of one's humanity

And being a human is a definitive receipt of one's social nature

...

So, does that apply to something that isn't human? Or worse, beyond human?

Even if something isn't human, but it can be included in the wide umbrella of sociality, does that prove it's humanity?

The true answer, is but one and only

Yes

But humanity's answer, hubristic and ignorant as it is, is as to be expected of avaricious creatures like them

Their answer is...

No

Humanity brought this upon themselves

No, humanity caused this

They are the true perpetrators of the tragedy that could only be named "The day the Moon bled'

It was truly horrific. Such an indescribable thing could only be caused by humanity

Their avarice and greed reached their peak that day, only to plummet into the hellish bowels bellow
