There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.
"Buying meat is unethical because of how the animals are treated" ~ sent from my iPhone made by child slave labor
I'm not saying veganism is bad. What I am saying is that people who think veganism is a moral high ground are wrong. I also think that veganism is a luxury to be even able to follow.
Edit after downvotes into the negative and shitty asshole responses:
Here comes the self-righteous assholes who don't want to have a discussion and instead throw around blame and shame at me. Congrats. Y'all are the reason people hate vegans which hurts your cause by pushing people away from reducing reliance on meat. Every downvote is proof that self-righteous vegans are assholes.
It's pretty ethical to grow and hunt your own food. Hunting even benefits the eco-system and animals haunted since the natural predators that used to keep deer, turkey, elk, and other game animals population in check are no longer prevalent.
Personally, I can agree in some circumstances. However, not everyone agrees with that and that is also fine.
Just don't try to shove your morals down my throat.
It's even finer because in those situations those people would just die
Wut. Are you saying you're happy that people who disagree with killing animals themselves "would just die"?
Has anything truthful ever come after those words?
I was asking for clarification. Why are you implying I was trying to be dishonest?
