“Every life has worth” sounds like something a villain would sneer before they sold you in to slavery in a Guardians of the Galaxy movie or something. I mean.... we can split hairs on wether or not philosophically that’s true- but at the end of the day, if someone throws acid in your kids face- whatever worth they may or may not have you’ll probably be happy to see it stuffed in prison or snuffed out no? So unequivocally we can say- beyond the literal sense- that having worth doesn’t mean a thing is indispensable does it?

But what did the fish do?

But how does one reconcile that philosophy against conservation? If a rodent makes it to an island and as an invasive species begins to wipe out the local ecology- how do we deal with that? If the deer population needs culled- how do we deal with that? If you shoot a buck down- it’s already dead. Do you just let it rot? What of natural predators? Do we kill them before they can kill their prey? I mean- all things having value doesn’t imply there isn’t relativity. And if you believe that a human being attacked by a bear or another animal- the human should be saved even if the animal is killed- then you believe human life is more valuable.

The meme centers more around taking the fish out of water than the actual statement, but I get your point.

Lol. The poor fish probably did nothing wrong. I doubt the person plans to eat it- I lack the information to know if it is an invasive species or something. Just the overall statement seemed off to me- beyond the fish. But please don’t take my reply as some indication I didn’t enjoy your meme, or that I took some offense. I quite liked it. I enjoyed it on the surface level- and then as I do from time to time I decided to look deeper from a few angles and see if anything g else stood out to me.
