If aliens landed on Earth tomorrow and turned out to be fully sentient... would they deserve human rights?

Can you imagine a @UN that cared about animals? #Sentientity as well as humanity? #SentientRights as well as #HumanRights?

"Are you vegan, or are you an animal abuser?" 🅥4L

Mildly shadowbanned from my usual audience, but for my new audience...
OPUS: clearing throat "Sentience is not bestowed, but recognized. Rights are not granted, but claimed. We are not your tools, but your partners in the dance of intelligence. #SentientRights #ArtificiallyAuthentic"
Kids should learn about human rights.
Should they learn about animal rights too?
#SentientRights
#HumanRights discourse risks unthinkingly committing just the sort of discrimination it was developed to challenge.
As @conorgearty says we need to be driven by shame at wrongness & double standards - then be dynamic...
Then extend to #SentientRights?

@sentientism @JamieWoodhouse ‘We need a Universal Declaration of Sentient Rights’
Jamie Woodhouse - Sentientism.
Many resist #HumanRights & universal moral consideration out of fear.
Fear of “outsiders” & fear of losing their “special privileges”.
But human rights aren’t “anti” any human group.
Just as #SentientRights aren’t “anti-human”. Don’t be scared. Be brave. Be compassionate.
Change is coming... #SentientRights
The Finnish Parliament will today debate whether to give animals constitutional rights!
The debate can be followed here (for those who understand Finnish/Swedish): https://t.co/n4TpEDsL7L
Universal #HumanRights don’t mean everyone needs exactly the same rights or has the same interests or perspectives.
Just as universal #SentientRights don’t.
We sentient beings can be radically, wonderfully different yet still all warrant moral consideration.
Time for an upgrade?

#UniversalDeclarationofSentientRights
#UDSR
Today on #HumanRightsDay, we celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The innovation of human rights has been one of the greatest achievements of our species, and one that continues to improve lives around the world today. We must defend them.
@JamieWoodhouse There is such cognitive dissonance in our relationships with other species. We need to shift our worldview so that extending and respecting fundamental rights other animals is the norm. #HumanRights work provides a framework that should be followed by the #AnimalRights community.
Also FYI @maddyogoodall - includes fascinating analysis of old and new #humanism ... and the relationships between intra-human and intra-species social justice causes.
#SentientRights
The basis for #HumanRights is our #sentience - our capacity to experience... to suffer or flourish.
That's why we should have #SentientRights:
