All it took was a Taiwanese billionaire tech mogul sticking his dick where he shouldn’t. At this point, im willing to crowdfund his prostitutes.

    People eat meat because they don’t value animal lives like human lives. You can make a moral argument against that, and you’d have a good case for it, but it’s not cognitively dissonant.

      Yep, but I have yet to find a single person that would way that eating meat is not a moral issue if they know about industrial livestock farming.

        I know about industrial livestock farming and don’t believe eating meat is a moral issue. I believe the way we treat livestock is absolutely a moral issue (as well as an ecological and health issue), but not the actual eating of meat

          Yeah we can split hairs all day, but you just agreed. Eating meat, 95% of the time, includes how we treat livestock.

          In a survey, if they ask me if I think murder is a moral issue, I won’t say no because I am thinking of self-defence. Abortion is a moral non issue, because most abortions are accidental. Good talk.

        Again, lots of them know, they just don’t care. Many people just do not care about non-human animal suffering.

          Yes, but my point is they would see industrial livestock farming if they knew the issues it raised. I have yet to see anybody show me how industrial livestock farming, which is behind almost all instances of “eating meat”, is not a moral issue.
