    It’s more accurate to say “leave the animals alone”.

    Humans have no right to call themselves the victims in all of this when billions of land animals are murdered for momentarily taste pleasure when there are decent alternatives that exist on the market.

        That is a half truth as taste creates the demand for profit such as people buying animal products and the popular federal government policy to give $2 billion to animal agriculture costing Canadians on average $49 a year in taxes.

            The same people who work in animal agriculture are meat eaters just like the rest of society. So that point is bad faith and disingenuous.

              this is a leap of logic. there is not direct correlation, and your accusation of bad faith is, itself, bad faith.
