The rest of the posts by others that followed seem to have done the same and not actually answered what was asked.

No, everyone *is* addressing what we "owe" "humanity", by describing how we treat "humans" in general - not any specific human. That's the whole point. Apparently I'm missing your point, could you give an example of how I would interact with "humanity" without interacting with "humans"?
