    Actually the ethical choice would be to eat people who defend carnivory since they’re psychopathic anyway and their lives don’t matter.

        The ultimate ethical reason is to delete all ways of living because this is the only way to not promote suffering.

        I notice you have no qualms about treating other sentient animals as “mere meat”? Now that is “dehumanization” on an industrial scale… Like I said, you’re the sort of evil person who abided slavery for 10,000 years.

            Human beings are literally animals. Fucking moron. There is no trait that you can attribute to all humans that doesn’t also apply to many if not most animals.

                There are two senses of the word “human.”

                1. The first is biological and concerns speciation (statistical distributions of genetic material).
                2. The second is normative, concerning transcendental traits, such as sentience and empathy; it has nothing to do with genes.

                “Dehumanization” is a normative concept, not the a biological one, by definition. There is nothing special about being a particular species of animal, such as a homo sapien, but there is something special about consciousness and the capacity to suffer. To pretend otherwise is precisely to dehumanize, you evil moron.
