      Well it's because it's like this black and white thing If cows actually are people, then it's in fact true that the meat and milk industry is a greater atrocity than anything humans have ever done to other humans If they aren't, then saying the above is incredibly offensivehttps://twitter.com/DanaSchwartzzz/status/1227353159045013506 …

      I think we all just ultimately know that treating animals as people or treating them as things makes sense but this middle ground most of us are in is unsustainable "It's okay to raise them to be killed and cut up and eaten but not if you do it in a CRUEL way"

          Replying to @arthur_affect

          Is it inherently cruel to farm any animal for meat? Maybe since they can't vouch for their own interest, the possibility of abuse is too high. But a dead animal doesn't care it's dead, and may not understand enough to fear for themselves when witnessing others taken to a butcher.

          Replying to @arthur_affect

          How I reconcile it is that a moral taboo against cruelty to animals isn't about protecting the animals, it's about protecting our own humanity—that monstrosity towards the former too easily becomes a post facto dry run for monstrosity towards humanity so we have to avoid it

          and obviously in the grander scheme of things biodiversity is important and preservation of finite resources should generally be considered a moral imperative so yeah our responsibility to animals corresponds directly to our emotional health and our environmental health

          To me I find it pretty simple. Doing what is necessary to live, i.e eat, is not immoral. As a human I put human lives higher than nonhuman lives.

          The problem with that reasoning is that eating meat isn’t necessary to live, as many people demonstrate.

          for many indigenous folx, the idea that you can treat animals ethically & also use them as a food source aren't automatically in contradiction. & i don't think those communities treat animals as "things". factory farms are a horror, but is it really b&w? on-&-off vegan here fwiw

          As someone with no great affection for animals in general this has always annoyed me. I respect vegans a ton more than I respect basic bros who act like their dog is more important than most people but also eating tons of bacon is not just justifiable but awesome. Pick a side.

          I think your reasoning is kind of flawed though your final conclusion is kind of right. It’s perfectly reasonable to treat cows as neither people nor things but something in between. The unreasonable part is that in no way does that justify raising them and killing them for food
