“appeal to hypocrisy” is a logical fallacy. it’s logically fallacious because a murderer can say “murder is wrong” and the truth doesn’t change based on who is saying it. it’s a form of ad hominem, and I am reticent to accuse someone of bad faith based on insinuation.
I’d rather not assume they are asking in bad faith. who I am has no bearing on the truth of what I’m saying anyway.
Good faith, bad faith, that has no bearing on hypocrisy. And anybody can be a hypocrite regardless of their guiding philosophy.
You don’t believe in cows’ rights to, well, anything, because you don’t believe in rights. I don’t see you making any arguments about duties.
Hence we’re left with nothing but the potential for hypocrisy based on the golden rule, which pretty much everybody accepts.
this smacks of the “veil of ignorance”, and, personally, I don’t find it compelling.

You seem to be downvoting my comments. I don’t debate with people who think my views are worth nothing.
I don’t care for debate at all, and I’m not voting at all.
have a nice day
OK apologies for the false accusation. You too.
