No plants are not. Plants may have defense mechanisms against predators and other things but they are not aware of their own existence which defines intelligence.
@Colton8646 how do you know? u dont..and u cant prove it...every form that exist has a form of conciousness evan objects (they dont want u to kno) it was proven that they have conciousness and that is a form of inteligence..also adapting is also a form of inteligence..they just tryed to ridicul this scinetist.. becouse he proved something..my father he knows what the trees wants and understand them....hes a viticulturist..just becouse u dont understand them doesnt mean other dont
@adirockboy "They don't want me to know". Circular argument . Adapting is not a form of intelligence the plant doesn't know its adapting, It was not proven they have consciousness.
Chris, people. Is everything a conspiracy now? This video completely misses the point. Remember, Vegetarians and other plant eaters typically eat FRUIT or the fruited parts of plants... benefiting the plant by passing the undigested or detached seeds in an almost perfectly produced, natural fertilizer. You don't murder a tomato plant by eating a tomato, you are a cog in the machine, a bee harvesting pollen, assisting the tomato plant by passing tomato seeds.
how can they claim this is wrong when they don't even have proof of any intelligent life other than human? that is single minded and not thinking outside of the box.
Vegetarians are just as retarded as dedicated meat eaters( I am unsure if there is an official name for them except carnivores, but that normally describes a species as a whole.). Look at nature. There are herbivores (ie. Cows), carnivores (ie. Lions), and omnivores (ie. Humans). Humans are naturally omnivores, therefore if you religiously eat meat or are a dead set vegetarian, you are screwing with nature.

what veggies have it wrong and the animals are a by-product of nature needing seed spreaders, wouldnt that mean that we, like other animal species are not as important as the whole of the earth and her flora?
intelligence is a matter of perspective, and perspective is in the eye of the beholder. All life is equally precious and intelligent in its own way and should be respected the same way you want to be respected, however let there be no delusion about what you require to exist in balance with nature, as nature holds no delusions. We life forms are all made of the same material, we all carry the same energy presence. My love for this world is vast, and it gives me the courage to fight for it.
@HamTylerLives I get that you're trying to be deep, but you're dead wrong. Intelligence is not a matter of perspective as it's a defined word and you either meet that definition or you do not.
@jayfulf we adjust definitions to better suit a meaning of refined understanding all the time, see *terrorist and the usa governments use of it. it is essentially their newest F-bomb label covering all from journalist to animal rights activists and everything below or above for that matter and it hardly fits the book definition, languages grow as cultures do.
@HamTylerLives The point you made is again, not entirely correct. The government uses the word TERRORist because of it's capitalised letters, it's propaganda not the "new" meaning of the word. Again, intelligence has a meaning and you cannot simply come up with your own meaning for the word.
@HamTylerLives "All life is equally precious and intelligent" lol almost, what about survival of the fittest and natural selection, Only the strong survive. Nature is brutal and destructive. All things arnt equal, but keep up the love "D
@huskyclaw You can say the same about humans. the only "tools" Humans use is ones to reproduce and live. how do Humans benefit the Universe or the planet for that matter.
they could be controlling us without us knowing like what they do to bee's
