- thereisnospork 3y agoWhat you describe as 'absolute horrors' are what most people call making breakfast. The 'tragedy of animal testing' isn't -- at least as relates to food stock animals.
- nextaccountic 3y ago> What you describe as 'absolute horrors' are what most people call making breakfast. This doesn't work as absolution by itself: many past horrors we now find abhorrent were the societal norm at their time.

- i8comments 3y agoEating meat for breakfast and animal testing involves suffering or killing.
- niemandhier 3y agoThe test subjects were treated to avoid as much suffering as possible, in fact they suffered less than animals for food production. So even on a individual by individual comparison level ( neglecting the scale of slaughter for food) this research is less bad than eating meat.
