  • I feel like this ignores the point many are making here.

    The statement that we are animals is true. But as many have pointed out, we have the extra layer of reasoning, introspection, and empathy.

    We can see the pain and torture subjected on other animals and reson that it is unjustified and empathise with the pain by thinking about how we would feel if in the shoes of the animals being slaughtered. We can look at outlr actions and decide to make a change.

    None of this, as far as we know, is possible for any other animal.

    This is a huge distinction and one that, as i said, you have either missed or ignored whilst reading these comments.


  • I know that the industry is horrific. I have battled internally with becoming a vegan. And this isn’t a but, it’s just something i thought about once when thinking about the argument that whilst in nature, animals eat other animals, its not the same as what we do as we farma dn torture animals to get the meat…

    Its cats…

    Cats torture their prey…

    They play with it, and maim it and keep it alive for as long as possible so they can chase it, for fun…

    And sometimes they just fucking leave it there when it dies.

    And we love cats. Even vegans love cats.

    And that sort of makes me laugh a bit.
