Important thing to note about the median pro-IP and pro-compulsory education center-leftist is that the only rhetorical stance they can take is a lame elitism that ultimately reduces to noncognitive status quo bias. They can not conceive of some position being both genuinely unpopular and correct.

Consciousness and cognition in plants - PubMed
Unlike animal behavior, behavior in plants is traditionally assumed to be completely determined either genetically or environmentally. Under this assumption, plants are usually considered to be noncognitive organisms. This view nonetheless clashes with a growing body of empirical research that shows …
