              You won’t get one. Where’s yours? You didnt bring one proving they dont. Since we both dont really know for sure, we should probably just assume they dont care about dieing, right?

                Since we both dont really know for sure, we should probably just

                suspend judgement on the claim until there is more evidence.

                we can’t prove a negative. but you are making the claim that requires that they do understand personal mortality, so it is on you to support that claim

                  You made the claim that plants ‘don’t want to be eaten.’

                  It is on you to support that claim. You can’t just turn around and pretend you weren’t making your own opinionated claims througut this thread and out the burden of proof on anyone who debates.

                    plants don’t want to be eaten. animals don’t want to be eaten. and the reason for both is the same: we don’t have proof they understand the concept
