It wouldn't be wrong if someone wanted a knife for self defense though

Watch the bad guy be a white dude, like most of them are
Can I see dislikes tho?
They should make a single home stambox like a console version of the Deck, and call it the Engine
And yet people default to those systems and have since the agricultural revolution.
As for plant stimuli, who are you to say that doesn't constitute pain? They sure communicate it to those around them, cut grass smell and all that. Does an ant not feel pain because it mostly just responds to and sends out pheromones? Bit of a "my red is your blue" argument you're making.
Pretty much, yeah. And I'm not convinced by your news article either as the study described relies on the reporting of pet-owners. Vegan cat owners forcing such a diet on their pet aren't exactly people I trust to be 100% honest about the wellness of said cat.
Convincing people to be ethical past the point of inconvenience requires insincerity, yes. The average person is a horrible human being
Well that's fucked. If I donate my body to science, it certianly isnt so my skull can sit in some dudes living room
I can't tell if your sarcastic or seriois, because this meme is about as absurd as horshoe theory. Distributism on the right? Really?
If belligerent internet comments actually convinced you to change your diet in such an inconvenient manner for no reward but moral superiority, you are not like the people you're trying to convince. Abusers and cults love bomb because its more effective on a random sample of people
Two things. First, the fact most people arent hunting the animals thenselves really isnt shocking. Human society thrives on specialization. We dont farm or forage our own veggies either, we dont engineer our own cars, we dont construct our own houses. Thats kinda just how civilization works. Its not uniquely symptomatic of "carnists".
Secondly, you severely underestimate people. Primitive tribes, even if they were less effective at securing large amounts of meat, still hunted without any moral compunctions about the matter. Evolution is a slow thing, people who did that were just like us in any way that matters. Its not unreasonable to assume most people would adjust if you strip away the automation of society. Desperate people resort to cannibalism for goodness sake, I wouldnt put hunting past them.
We have out problems, but were actually really good about ableism, so silver lining. Still feel for that guy though, hope he gets all the good things he deserves
