    Or it can mean that our mind is flawed. Unless cats fearing cucumbers mean that they once had to fight cat-hunting cucumbers.

      Cucumbers could easily be triggering feline responses to snakes, which are most certainly a danger to them.

        Yeah, that’s a perfect example of mind being wrong because of faulty pattern recognition triggering unconscious responce.

        Personal anecdote: I’ve experienced uncanny valley once with perfectly human human, just some guy that had unfortunate experience of being meat crayon on a motrocycle some time in the recent past, i was absolutely terrified until he came really close and I understood what exactly was wrong.

      Are you some kind of carnivorous cucumber truther? The evidence is incontrovertible. Trust the science. This isn’t the kind of thing you can meaningfully do your own research about. Watching YouTube videos where weirdos rehash the same three articles about how carnivorous cucumbers were not an apex predator for a million years isn’t a personality. Touch grass. Get a fucking hobby.
