In other words “I support cruelty against animals because of my taste buds, fully knowing what that animal cruelty contains”
Yes, but you have to draw a line somewhere. The crops you eat have pesticides on, animals are trapped and killed to keep the places you eat and live clean.
yawn
How is anyone going to take you seriously if that's your response to a debate?
My take is that you are not engaging in a serious debate. Competing with “pests” for crop yield is not anywhere on the same level as cultivating an industry with systemic animal abuse.
I'm saying that there are different places that people draw the line on the amount of cruelty and suffering they will allow in order to live their lives. I could also point out the conditions of the people who assemble the devices that were using to have this debate, or the habitats destroyed in the mining of the material required. It's impossible to live in a way where you avoid inflicting some sort of suffering on others and it's all about where you personally find a balance between convinience for you and suffering for others.
Of course. Cause bugs arent as cute as cows, So who gives a fuck about them, right?
I don't understand why vcj types who just express ennui at talking to meat eaters even come into these threads. You're not helping convince people to lay off the cheese by doing this.
Its not about convincing anyone.
its about inflating their imaginary victimization by provoking responses with their stupid comments, So they can go on to cry about the evilbadcruel world and feel ever more justified as they arrogantly huff their own farts
I support cruelty to people who post bait like this, too.
