I also think it's repulsive to let animals live in peace. Who tf would do such a cruel thing.

Wanting animals to live in peace is infantile and delusional. You want animals to live in peace? Ok, go ahead and fundamentally change nature, because animals certainly don't live in peace in nature. It's violent, brutal, and full of suffering.

I advocate to reduce animal suffering by human hands, but it's shit like this that turns me against vegans. Too many idiotic children thinking that if we just stop using animal products, animals will all just live in some fucking Disney fantasy. You know, instead of constantly living on a knife's edge of famine, injury, disease, and predators.

How about we at least be realistic?

Fascinating. I am a plant absolutist. I believe we should kill all the domesticated animals as they are a sub par food source. Plants are better and raising them is better on resources and taste. All animal products are flavored with plants, not the other way around. Beef is flavored by onion and garlic. Plain beef is nasty. Killing the animals would take a lot of energy. Perhaps releasing them, as they are worthless to superior tasting Plant, would be fine. As long as they don't get in the way. If they do, kill, then discard corpse. Plants.

Yes, that's what this person and everyone else is talking about.

Great reading comprehension and interpersonal skills!
