Are you against eating meat from a consequentialist perspective, or a deontological one?

Solution 1: learn to cook dhal

solution 2: convince the arrogant fussy and cruel hedonist that rejected 1 to eat crickets?
solution 3: keep all of the horror of farming but make it marginally more efficient?
Mmm yay, pigs screaming in terror while they die in gas chambers makes me hungries.

I’m gonna need your bingo card and your debate links. We’ve no room for bigotry like that on the force.
You’re back to eating grass.

If the ways we killed non humans were not cruel then we would use them on our loved ones at end of life for euthanasia etc.
we don’t because they’re cruel.
