   To the animals you eat, this would be vastly preferable. By way of simple utilitarian calculus, we must, therefore, conclude that it would benefit more living beings and harm fewer of them if you stopped eating meat and starved. Or at least adjusted to a vegetarian diet, which is also a great option.

   I know, but think about it this way: you'd be one organism that doesn't like its diet, much better than all of the many organisms you'd have to kill in order to have a diet you prefer.

   Animals don't have a capacity for moral reasoning, but that doesn't mean they aren't worthy of moral consideration. Not to mention that humans have few natural predators: we are the predators. We've created entire species that live and die in crates for us. This goes so far beyond any measure of decency that they've had to move operations to rural areas so that the general population doesn't hear them torturing the poor beasts.

    We aren't part of the "out there" and haven't been since establishing a commonwealth. Once you participate in a society, you're protected by human comforts. We aren't represented in the food chain anymore, but we have created another, internal food chain whereupon we grow animals in captivity for slaughter. It's a form of heinous abuse.

    I"m not going to read through all this shit but I know none of you have a background in agriculture so I'm going to tell you what up. First of all beef is eurotrash, bison is american meat and all the ranchers that produce beef are fucking cucks, why the fuck does the worst cut of meat off a bison taste better than your "selectively breeded over a hundred generations" beef? Because grass fed anything tastes better than the crap you feed your cattle, Secondly, bugs are the future, If I were the dictator all we would eat are bugs because they are more efficient, they take less grass to produce the same amount of protien than any other animal and produce no methane. Entitled ass motherfuckers aren't going to eat bugs but you can feed them to your beef or pets and its better for the planet. Am currently learning to produce colonies of crickets and cricket flour. I believe vegans and vegetarians are weak willed and will eat my bugs once I coerce them and when the means of production cease to function I will lead humanity into the future as a producer of protein.

    Do I seem as though I'm yelling? I apologize if that's the case, you could say it's a kind of approach to argumentation that I've developed. I'm having fun, though, and I want you to have fun, too!

    So your argument against my categorical opposition to meat is that I need to try better meat and that you'll make me eat your bugs? Maybe you should go back and read the thread.

    You're right, there is a lot of shitposting to wade through. I still think your argument didn't really address anything.
    
    I did see your thread, so now I know who you are better. Did you expect me not to evaluate the argument directed at me or something? What did you expect in a discussion forum by this title?

    if your beef with consuming beefs is that their inefficient, then the only logical recourse is to consume meat synthesized from human feces.
    
    its both efficient and environmentally friendly.
