What do you mean with
Is an earthling a human, an animal, a plant or subsets of those three? And what is walking through an earthling?
I'm geniuenly curious, I have no idea what you mean.
Earthlings are all of us, all sentient beings. We are from earth, we are the earthlings.
Like not just plowing through birds foraging, or lizards sunbaking, or ants doing a nuptial flight or whatever.
Considering others' right to use space equal to their own.
That makes much more sense, my first intuition was passing people on the sidewalk which... doesn't seem like a red flag.
