    Love how you’re getting downvoted for promoting a vegetarian diet in a thread about…eating less meat lol, I guess there are more ex-Redditors here than I realized.

        People who eat meat are taking a pretty all or nothing stance on animal lives, a diet isn’t just a diet when victims are involved.

          Its a meat eat meat world my friend. Being my dinner is better than the carnivor that eats you alive and toys with your innards as it enjoys your screams of pain.

          The circle of life ends in death and the laws of nature demands consumption.

            That doesn’t work when we’re breeding them by the billions specifically to kill them, you aren’t saving anyone from anything.

              But there would have been dozens of other species using the resources and slaughtering each other as I said above.

              It would be the same scale of slaughter, just spread out and brutal as described above.

              The meat industry has problems that should be discussed, but taking a moral stance of eating meat is evil is a most privileged delusional take.

                No it would not, wild predators cannot set up factory farms.

                Killing others when you can easily avoid it is clearly evil.

                We can just eat plants.

                  What do you think wild predators eat?

                  Again, the delusional privilege is dripping out of your comment. Everybody can just eat plants…

                    We have a choice, they do not, we can choose not to breed and kill animals just because we like how they taste.

                    Why choose to be cruel when we can easily avoid it?

                    Yes we can just eat plants.
