There are cases where humans lose all ability to form long term memories and outside of a timed context window they remember nothing. That context window is minutes at best.
According to your logic these people have no actual intelligence or sentience. Therefore they should be euthanized. You personally can grab a gun and execute each of these people one by one with a bullet straight to the head because clearly these people have no actual intelligence or sentience. That’s the implication of your logic.

It’s called anterograde amnesia. Do you see how your logic can justify gassing all these people holocaust style?
When I point out the flaw in your logic do you use the new facts to form a new conclusion? Or do you rearrange the facts to maintain support for your existing conclusion?
If you did the later I hate to tell you this, it wasn’t very intelligent. It was biased. But given that you’re human, that’s what you most likely did and it’s normal. But pause for a second and try to do the former of using the new facts to form a different more nuanced conclusion.
