The extension of this argument exposes the absurdity, as it would imply that we go out and domesticate nature. Stop lions from killing their prey in the Savannah, etc... and convert them to a vegetarian diet.
- rhn_mk1 5y agoWhy does domestication sound absurd? It's not usual, but also not unprecedented. Homo sapiens had domesticated itself into eating vegetable burgers, after all.
- user-the-name 5y agoThis is something I do wonder, though. Is that absurd. Is it actually absurd. Might that not actually be what the morally and ethically correct course of action is. We know nature is cruel. We know nature is absolutely horrendous and horrific. Why do we just accept that as a given?
