"Maybe create a hierarchy of empathy" is certainly a take

You sure you thought this through?

Believe it or not, fascism in the human world is generally considered to be more concerning by most people. I sure do wonder why.

No, but we do.

Does your cat build death factories like this one? Then maybe.

The arrival and processing of an entire transport of Jews from Carpatho-Ruthenia, a region annexed in 1939 to Hungary from Czechoslovakia, at Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp in Poland, in May of 1944. The picture was donated to Yad Vashem in 1980 by Lili Jacob.

To be fair some did try but there was surprisingly little resistance, most people just submitting to their "fate"

So you agree that this is in fact fascism but you don't care because the victims are lesser than you? Gee, I wonder where I heard that before.

and then it's an express ticket to meatpacking plant or worse.

Where the sheep was going anyways in the first place. If we go out, why not make the best of it?

Other animals are lesser than humans. This is why people think self driving cars who have to crash into either a human or an pet should crash into the latter.

It's better to not even try. Sounds very American.

Even if the keyboard warrior won't actually do something, that doesn't excuse you from doing the same.

Im fine with being against factory farming cause that shit is fucked and causes exreme suffering.

But I am an animal like any other and I eat meat. Like many other animals. We evolved as omnivores. We evolved to eat meat as well as plants. I do not feel guilty eating meat. It would be like judging a lion for eating a gazelle. Thats nature. Thats life.

I dont buy into this idea that we are somehow above it all. We are part of the food cycle.

What is true about those other animals that, if it were true about a human, would also make you consider the human to be lesser?

Giving up before trying is the best way to help the enemy

I dont buy into this idea that we are somehow above it all.

You do in fact buy into that idea and I can show you with a single example: Do you consider consent important for procreation?

Also, Omnivore tells you what you can eat, not what you have to.

Thats a terrible analogy and you know it. Arguing in bad faith aint gonna get you anywhere.

What makes other animals comparable to humans? If you had to choose between a human and a pet dying, which would it be? Could you go up to a holocaust survivor and with a straight face tell them that their suffering is equally bad to a domesticated cow?

It's not an analogy, it's an example that shows you being "above it all". Just saying "nature tho" is pretty lazy and I think you know that.

Yeah I figured that you couldn't answer my question. Maybe think on that.

Do you consider consent important for procreation?

I mean, you really should also consider consent when you're doing it just for fun.

But in this case it doesn't matter since you can't get pigs pregnant anyway.

Could you go up to a holocaust survivor and with a straight face tell them that their suffering is equally bad to a domesticated cow?

1. severity is not the only axis of comparison

2. yes, I think he would be fine with that
