That's about the fairest argument, and I say this as an unrepentant meat eater, hunter, and fisher.
It's not just that the animal is dead, it's that the animal spent its entire existence in terrible conditions.
- throwaway5752 7y agoThanks for saying this. "Repentant" meat eater here. Every time I eat meat, it came from an animal that enjoyed being alive and didn't want to die. More people should hunt and fish, and know what it's like to take the life that you're going to eat. I think people would feel a sense of obligation to the animal's quality of life, in light of the sacrifice they are making. Sorry it's slightly off topic, but wanted to thank you for creating common ground. If I try to make it topical, I think conversations like this between different points of view overall reduce extremism.
