With love- You're being a reactionary dumbass. It's not about how delicious lamb/mutton is, it's about how the same systems of exploitation and murder you're defending here are actively turned against you and prevent any sort of "solarpunk" future.

Trolls and bots seem to have found a new word. "Reactionary". I wonder who's paying them to use it.

Creatures eat creatures, that’s the circle of life. If I were a lamb, chillin in some fields grazing in the sun for my whole life would be a pretty good deal.

I agree that animal treatment and quality of life matters and should be taken into consideration, but this whole “eating meat is murder” bullshit needs to stop because it makes vegans as a whole look like assholes and isn’t gonna change any minds.

Killing and eating something is baked into our biology as omnivores, give a try some time. If you really want that primitive feel go bow hunting.
