I've seen many people imply that insect lives don't matter. Why?

Awe yes, the common سوال over the value of every living thing. Having آپ ever heard of Jainism perhaps?

I would definitely say that torturing یا killing needlessly isn’t right (though insects do not process pain یا emotions), but if a مچھر یا such is sucking your blood, slapping it seems to be a reasonable decision. And sure, that may seem as if آپ are using your superiority as a higher-held animal to decide a smallest fate, but really when it comes down to it, everything’s designed for its own survival. آپ could see it as a “you harm it, یا let it harm you” sort of thing.

Death of anything, animal, human, even insect, is just “the دائرے, حلقہ of life” آپ know?

They eat honey and say that? pretty damm stupid if آپ ask me lol

They don't have the sort of cognitive ability to understand right یا wrong, so they can't be wronged if that is a concept that is beyond their understanding.

insect life does matter. they are living as well!!!!

Even animals are capable of doing some very horrible things when it comes to their own defense یا food but we treat them as vulnerable innocent beings that's because they are not conscious of their acts. Humans on the other are conscious of 'good' and 'evil' so they have sort of 'moral responsibility' of things. Funnily enough this concept of morals was created سے طرف کی humans themselves (inspired سے طرف کی religion) in nature there are no morals, it's survival of the fittest. So it largely depends on an individual human's values because if آپ look at it rational then they are important for the environmental purpose and that effects our own survival and doesn't serve any moral purpose. Despite this humans are good for the sake of being good and we're actually the kindest species (sort of)

because insects aren't people
