@suzianne saidEpic Whoosh.
Dark ideology.
Uh-huh.
@fmf saidAnd delicious when prepared right.
Said to be the most good-natured, friendly, and chilled-out creatures in the animal kingdom: it's time we talked about them.
@gambrel saidI am a carnivore but I do NOT eat good-natured animals. The dogs and horses I have eaten in the past did not have pleasant personalities.

@gambrel saidI maybe a carnivore but you are giving me too much information.
I was a butcher. If someone wanted to eat something, headshoyt, throat cut, hang by the hind leg, dress it out break it down and cut it up. Pleasant personality or not.
@a-unique-nickname saidYeah, and people accept those as pets.
Why?
Aren't rats, hamsters the like all rodents by definition?
@fmf saidMaybe it's right that you know what happened to the life that was before the meal you're having.

@yo-its-me saidI fear being turned into a vegetarian by the pressure of moral considerations.

Personally I don't eat animals. I don't see any difference between eating a good natured animal or one who was grumpy. They were, that's the point.
I'm glad you recognise animals have personalities, I think that's the first step to realising they are real beings. Which is before realising they have a right to be protected from slaughter for food for other beings.
@fmf saidEmbrace it ✨️

@yo-its-me saidThe way my moral compass is set up, vegetarianism - though admirable and persuasively argued for - is not a priority [or even something I aspire to]. For what it's worth, I eat only a little fish and chicken in any given week, and, instead eat a lot of tempeh and tahu and loads of vegetables. That works for me but it's not driven by moral considerations.
Embrace it ✨️
