One thing that seems to be a consistent trait in almost all reactionary ideologies is this idea that everything is “biological” or otherwise innate. It’s the easiest way to justify inequality and prevent people from trying to change the social order– just convince people that it’s a “natural” order and that it’s impossible to change, and that obeying that order is somehow moral, that adhering to the hierarchies laid out by the society you find yourself in is the most moral thing you could do.
Misogynists invoke it. White nationalists invoke it. Capitalists invoke it. Transmisogynists invoke it. You just start to see it everywhere. “It’s biology” means “I have a god given right to hurt you.”
Archerfish are extremely accurate at shooting jets of water at their prey - and studies have shown that they practically always hit their target on the first shot, for a distance of up to 3m away (9ft). This is mainly due to the fact that they have specific areas of their eyes they utilise to compensate perfectly for the refraction of the water-air interface.
Young Archerfish must train when they start hunting. In fact, they are very inaccurate at first - and hunt in larger schools to compensate for this - but improve drastically with experience.
