As a thought experiment, let us imagine you have been sentenced to death (that still happens in the USA, right?)
5 years from now, you will be killed.
Would you rather spend those 5 years jammed into a concrete cell with thousands of other inmates, unable to move, standing in your own feces, never to see the sun and only eating corn?
Or would you rather have a bed, running water, proper meals, be allowed outside in the sunshine for some hours a day and even get some exercise?
I think it's pretty clear which one you prefer, and we should treat non-human animals the same way. They're alive, lets treat them with some respect. (That applies to death row inmates, regular citizens and animals equally)
- matz1 8y agoSure I don't want to be treated like that, but animal well being? I don't care. This just mean I care more than my own well being compare to animal well being and I don't have problem with that.
- iN7h33nD 8y agoThe same logic was applied to slavery, and is still applied with racism. You believe that you are better than something or someone else. Who cares what happens to them, they are not a real living thing like me...
- matz1 8y agoYes, but I believe there always someone who care what happen to them, its just might not be me.
