<That's my belief. Plenty of these people do not care and see us as expendable, not true people.> The translation of that phrase is a little weird. 'True people', 'real people', 'people like themselves'. Thought-speak isn't always a perfect analog to vocal speech. <But not everyone, at least not all of us. It may be worth paying attention. The Jorgmund humans are in a bad position that incentivizes them to see us as different and more expendable, but they will not be a monolith. No group ever is, even if it goes to considerable effort to maintain conformity.>
