You are ignoring the fact that plants have no brain (or brain power as you put it), yet they are intelligent. You are also ignoring the fact that male scientists have spent centuries trying to prove in vain that women are less intelligent than men including the ludicrous claim that this is supposedly so due to smaller brains LOL. You are doing something similar to animals and you have no right to do that.

Based on your claim, I‘m certain that you have not spent your life studying animals, spending quality time, spending a lifetime with them, connecting and bonding like, for instance, Jane Goodall, or myself for that matter, you have studied philosophy instead. And philosophy is not a study of animals and other living beings, it’s a study of words and thoughts and sometimes one gets dangerously lost in them like you got lost in them now.
