All life started in the water. Imagine at some point two species of fish diverged from a common ancestor, species X and species Y. Both became ancestors to many subsequent species. Some descendant species of X (irl: lobe finned fish) eventually came to land, and that's where we descent from. Now, thousands of modern fish species have evolved from species X, and thousands have from species Y. A far descendant from species X might look morphologically similar to a species that evolved from Y (they are both "fish") but it shares a closer common ancestor with humans.

To put it in perspective: there are species of fish that are more closely related to humans than they are to some other species of fish

I mean, legalization is still very far away, but ultimately the only true solution.
