gollark: Of course, if you do this, *you* know about human rights…
gollark: Human rights exist only in the minds of humans. Eliminate everyone who knows about them and they're gone.
gollark: You might be able to just approximate the humans, like in statistical mechanics.
gollark: Another angle might be high fidelity simulations of societies, but that has ethical issues too, and practical ones (simulating humans well enough is probably hard?).
