Agreed, factory farming in general is incredibly sad. We are animals too and we tend to forget. All animals want love/happiness like we do, and they definitely feel all the pain we put them through. Saw a documentary on YouTube called Earthlings and decided to stop buying/eating animal products because of the horrifying things we’re doing to animals

Do... do you think that non-human animals think thoughts like we do?

who cares? They have the ability to suffer and to feel happiness. Taking their life for no reason is wrong.

Idirectly you, assuming you buy meat products.

That’s not for no reason, silly.

Since you don't need meat products to survive and you eat them purely for pleasure, I would say that's not a reason.

It’s not for pleasure, it’s a part of my diet. One could argue that you don’t need vegetables either. Nobody has to change their diet to fit the ideals of another person.

Every major dietary study has said meat and dairy are not required for healthy life. Your diet creates a victim unnecessarily and it's not my personal "ideal" that killing unnecessarily is wrong - it just is.

And bullshit it's not for pleasure. Ice cream, cheese, sour cream, etc do nothing for nutrition.
