    If you don’t understand why killing is bad

    No, I don’t understand why killing animals for food or clothing is bad. That’s probably because it isn’t.

      I know you’re probably not doing it for real, but I will answer as if you’re actually that alien that dropped out of parallel universe where suffering doesn’t exist, and trying to understand our customs.
      Killing animals for food and clothing in a world where alternatives exist, is bringing unnecessary suffering in the world. This can happen either because you don’t care about bringing unnecessary suffering, or because you don’t recognise it’s existence. Both are kind of the definition of bad.

        Nope. It is a perfectly natural thing to do.

        Now, see how much evangelical vegans resemble of other religions?:

        “Not believing in the real God in a world where fake religions exist, is a blasfemy which is bringing condemnation for your eternal soul and will cause unnecessary suffering in the real world after”

          It is a perfectly natural thing to do.

          Didn’t say it was unnatural. Eating each other is very natural. Brain eating amoeba is natural, cancer is natural. Hot shower and antibiotics aren’t. We recognize however that cancer we don’t like, despite it’s naturality, and medicine we do like, despite it’s artificial nature.
          Your weird, what I assume attempt at gotcha with religions out of nowhere, I am not touching with a gloved pole, it’s between you and your therapist.

      some vegans will twist themselves into pretzels to justify crop deaths for the things they consume. or, put another way, vegans justify crop deaths.

        Wait, so you’re actually trying to unironically make a “potato is alive therefore vegans dumb” argument, for real? Fuck, sorry, I didn’t realise what I’m actually dealing with here.
