One thing that always perplexes me about Socialists is why they restrict it to humans if it isn't about wealth and productivity.

Why doesn't a hamster deserve its right to life and protection? Why only a human?

Some dogs, horses, cats etc actually are more useful to the emotional wellbeing of their owners than some poor people are to any humans at all, yet the species of the latter entitles them to some benefits and welfare, why? Their species has 'privileged status' in Socialist agenda.

I know why a Capitalist would help humans, it's because overall it's a better bet on who will end up more productive for the nation's economy but why a Socialist would is because Socialism is a lie, you can't deny the Capitalist basis for ranking.

There is no objective reason. Only my self interest as a human makes this true. Humans take care of each other and sometimes hamsters. Hamsters never take care of humans in the same way. That doesn't make them intrinsically less worthy but it sure makes them poor socialists. Lol
