People wouldn’t care nearly as much if he said this while standing over a pond full of fish, but since they’re cute, fuzzy lambs, it’s Crossing The Line.
If you're okay with eating meat, you should also be okay with how it gets to your plate. Seems only fair.
To be fair, fish brains are much further removed than other mammals.
Mammals have memories and can love. They have opinions and personalities.
The distinction that I would better is how up in arms some people get at the idea of eating dogs or cats but other mammals are perfectly fine.
Fish definitely have memories. They definitely learn who feeds them. Ask any observant aquarium owner.
