@michaelmalice dear and buffalo have plausible deniability because they're commonly eaten
@ArthurB I thought "it's about the moral character of someone who seemingly enjoys killing"?

@michaelmalice in addition, we empathize more with lions than with cows for cultural reasons, but explaining doesn't mean explaining away -
@ArthurB you can't empathize with a wild animal, that is exactly my point. that is anthropomorphism at its nadir - 4 more replies

@michaelmalice and how do we know he does? Because it's very, very unlikely he eats lions. -
@ArthurB I'm sure he does. So does every hunter. What is this, "stop liking what I don't like"? "Don't waste food, there are starving kids"?
