When are we supposed to stop fighting?

Rather than continue picking over the fine points of why people experience discomfort and moral dissonance with the Venat/Ancient narrative for another 2 months, I've decided it'd be easier to just allow myself to be radicalized against the themes of the story. It was actually fine for the Amaurotines to sacrifice millions of catgirls to save their people. Life invariably exploits life, and only betraying your own species is morally debased. The Ancients had no responsibility to the wider universe or any other form of life. Emet-Selch did nothing wrong.

The new life they wanted to swap for their loved ones were plants and animals. How many cows would you sack to get your mom out of purgatory? I'd kill so many cows you could call me Burger King.

The cat girls evolved from the the Ancients who were so mutilated by Venat's actions they filled in the gaps in their genetic code with animal traits.

There is no evidence that the Ancients intended to sacrifice intelligent life. The only known intelligent life were the Ancients and the new races that evolved from their mutilated corpses. If there was another intelligent race, they were wiped out completely in the sundering never to be heard of or mentioned. The reason people assume that the third sacrifice must be an intelligent race is because they don't want to imagine Venat murdered her entire species to save cows, which good news, she didn't.

She murdered them because they weren't down with leaving their loved ones in purgatory with no explanation as to why and she viewed that as weakness. So she decided to kill them and used their parts to fashion what she deemed a superior race.
