The question is 'Is it fixable?'

They need a facility to watch themselves. Cut police numbers and the bent one's have got lots of places to hide.

I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.
