It seems the further we place ourselves away from other living creatures (like Koko), the easier it is to minimize them. We do it quite frequently with animals we eat, hunt, put in zoos and conduct scientific tests on. On a human level, Nazis did it with Jews and Poles. In our country's history, we did it with black slaves and Native Americans.
If there are super intelligent life forms beyond our world, how should they act toward us when we meet?
All rhetorical,
