I presuppose the need to justify just about everything actually. Your surprise at this approach kind of explains the gaping logical holes in your previous comments. Please though, continue with your "specific" statements, I'm enjoying this.
EDIT: mixed you up with the other commenter, disregard the last 3 sentences, sorry.
- in_the_sticks 10y agoYou shouldn't eat veggies because their production causes animal suffering. Ever hear of pesticide runoff?

- in_the_sticks 10y agoNah, you've proved unwilling to entertain other viewpoints so I'll save my breath.

- tomp 10y agoIf animals are raised responsibly (free-range, good food) and killed unconscious, there's no suffering, no?
- 1457389 10y agoYup this is true when defined narrowly enough, but impossible in practice. Plus you'd have to address the argument that cutting short a happy life is a moral harm. If we were a society that was capable of doing this at scale, there would certainly be far less of a reason to be vegan, but I hesitate to say there would be no reason at all.
