Appropriating the flesh and secretions of animals for humans to use.

I think it's more "people are more likely to be punished for trespassing when exposing farming conditions, than the farmer are likely to be charged with some form of abuse or cruelty"

Even though I know that eating meat is immoral, it is not on the same level as genocide; no one should even pretend that it is.

Eating meat is not immoral. Industrial farming is the problem.

[–] Beaver@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Meat is immoral as it is enslaving and murdering other animals. You wouldn’t say that if we were eating your flesh or your dog’s.

Shows how little you actually think about these things. There are situations where that would actually be something I would be okay with.

Taking a position like yours is actually detrimental due to the fact you refuse to see other possibilities

Sounds like projection to me.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And you sound like a standard issue "meat eating makes you a bad person" hippy.

Look, you aren't the moral standard, and neither am I.

You want me to stop eating meat, don't bring religious ferver to the discussion.

[–] Beaver@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Let’s focus on the victims involved with eating meat, for the chickens who have their necks rung or the pigs who are slaughtered on an assembly line. You’re responsible for that as a meat eater as you pay for that, so owe up to it.

I don’t have anyone’s life ruined or ended for my own pleasure. So don’t compare me to you.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Like I said bringing religious ferver isn't going to convince me.

And I wasn't comparing myself to you.

And where in this conversation have I tried to side step any of my responsibilities?

Take a fucking moment to read AND understand. Otherwise you are just spouting drivel.

I’m done debating a rude person who is arguing in bad faith.

Cool, because you weren't actually debating but talking down to me. Talk about rudness when you aren't.

Or is every Inuit person immoral for living their traditional lifestyle?

Edit: I would like a good faith answer about the Inuit people's diet.
