Re: Unpopular RL Opinions

[dreemyweird]

I'm not objecting to the entirety of your comment, but "it is stupid not to continue to do what our ancestors did" is a pretty weak argument. Especially since environmentally speaking, it would be even stupider to CONTINUE doing exactly what our ancestors did - industrial farming as it exists now is by no means a sustainable industry. This is partially a result of the fact that many people in the West eat much more meat than they would need to simply have a balanced diet, btw.

Welfare issues - which worry me personally, but, of course, shouldn't necessarily worry you (no sarcasm intended) - are largely a result of the sheer scale of the meat and dairy industry. The most harmful practices are a part of the so-called intensive management farming. If meat production weren't so overblown/if synthetic meat were produced in great quantities, many welfare issues would simply vanish.

See, I think your concerns are valid but they're not the ones I'm targeting with my comment. There are legitimate issues regarding industrial farming and the environment. But, the reason why your argument holds more sway with me is because it is targeted to how it affects humans.

I don't care that industrial farming is not good for animals. That's my main point. All things equal (which isn't exactly the case with industrial farming), if it benefits humans, then do it.

With regards to ancestors, I'm only talking about the fact that they evolved to eat meat. (And unless we're talking about different ancestors, there wasn't a lot of industrial farming going on in the caveman era.)

Re: Unpopular RL Opinions

I see. Well, that's fair enough, although the problem here is obviously that you simply have a different set of values/different empathy standards than the people whom you were complaining about. There isn't any rational conflict here, just moral conflict*.

I don't think they have any right to lecture you on anything - simply because no one has the -right- to lecture other people on their actions - but I think it's OK for them to judge you, seeing as this is just how human morality works.

*I personally have zero issues with animals being killed for meat production or any other purpose, and I don't think that arguing against killing animals altogether can be a logical position - unless you're also going to argue that all forms of true predation are inherently bad - so I'm specifically talking about welfare issues.
