im having Thoughts about humans, vulcans, and the concept of love, apparently.

humans developed the feeling of love as a survival mechanism. we are a social species, so it is evolutionarily advantageous to care about each other, because then we take better care of each other. but the Feeling of love is not necessary to perform acts of care. it can be motivated by other things

the feeling is just a motivating force. love is more than just that. love is essentially: i want you to continue living, i want you to be healthy and happy and successful.

what does that sound like? live long and prosper

vulcans have a philosophy similar to love in humans. they just use a different vocabulary and dont rely on feelings as a motivating force but the principle is the same: "i take care of you because i want you to prosper, because that benefits the survival of the group"

so while vulcans may or may not feel the emotion of love (debatable, but either way they act as if they dont), they still perform acts of love as humans define it

but humans dont consider that a valid form of love because you're supposed to Feel it. its the exact same sentiment that causes aphobia, and ableism towards certain personality disorders. "you're not human because you dont perform love the way i expect you to."

this take was brought to you by an autistic aroace biologist

my favorite thing that happens in TOS is when they encounter some weird shit and then sulu turns around to us/kirk to make sure we’re all seeing the same thing. anyways my favorite example of this is when they encounter abraham fucking lincoln.
