@Stone Cold Steve Autism Cultural differences, if you can say americans are stupid for owning guns, you can't complain about china killing dogs in a cruel fashion

gas the jews

The actual killing?

It's...

@sefus He's probably the most influential philosopher on this subject and might agree with you. I think you'd like his work.

the cows don't even know what's happening

The cows live 5 years at most, where as a natural cow lives to 20 to 25

Thats fucked

i'd like to own a cow

Thats from a diary farm

WHY

BUY

THE COW?

Cus of the extreme milking

lol

If i ever get a nice plot of land i would like to get some animals

@sefus that said, there are many ways that you can justify eating some species and not others. Whether or not this is speciesism (which is what your argument boils down to) depends on whether or not that justification is arbitrary.

People justify it by "nuuu derrrr pets and sheeeit"

people eat horse meat, and they are considered pets

Then you have chickens, kills the males in a grinder when they are born. Then the females are fed chemicals and feed so they pump out eggs. Makes them disabled and in pain

horse meat is fucking great

@sefus this is asked with complete honesty and not to be condescending: have you taken a course on introductory ethics?

No

He's 14

yea

And makes jokes and comments about abusing and killing animals

So

He's a hypocrite in this scenario

not really

you should know they are jokes

just cause i joked about killing your gay rabbit doesnt mean to label me as an animal abuse supporter

Problem is, you make them so often that it's pretty much no longer a joke

Boy who cried wolf, all that.
