I'm not vegan or even vegetarian but why are you fighting with people who just want the betterment of the lives of animals? If you don't like it just ignore it, why fight them?

[–] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

they don't want the betterment of the lives of animals, they have an ideological opposition to human exploitation of animals. there is overlap, but there is a distinction.

The distinction is completely unimportant and irrelevant... why do they want that? Because they want to reduce animal misery

they don't care if lions eat every other animal on earth. it's not about suffering. it's about exploitation.
