      The point is that both zoophilia and eating (factory farmed) meat requires needless suffering for an animal. There are objections you can make specifically to either, but if you oppose the former principally due to concern for the animal’s wellbeing, you should likewise oppose the latter.

        If you won’t fuck it, why would you eat it? Checkmate. Come on, man. You cannot honestly tell me those are even close to equivalent things.

          It’s more like, if you actually care about it, you will won’t fuck it or eat it. Did I say they were the same thing? No, they are different types of harm.

            I care about it, so I nurture it, raise it, and take care that it doesn’t suffer needlessly during its final moments. Then into the freezer it goes. I’m no factory farmer. Everything in my homestead is done by hand, with love and care. I don’t expect you to agree, just to understand that there is Harm, and then there is Harvesting, and that they are different things.

              Then you are treating them much better than what most farmed animals experience. I did specify factory farmed meat.
