you don’t know what anyone else needs
what I said is true. nothing more need be said
speciesism is necessary. racism is bad.
your accusation of bad faith is, itself, bad faith.
The animals we create ARE morally equivalent to our own children and are owed EXACTLY THE SAME unconditional love and protection.
no, they’re not.
this is just rhetoric, now. you’re complaining about my form, and following up with an ad hominem.
what i’ve said is true.
But in general worth, you would probably also be angry if millions of stranger humans would be slaughtered, right? You are probably against Genocide, right? Even tho you don’t know these humans.
none of this has to do with “worth”. i can be opposed to genocide and mass slaughter without trying to quantify the value of people.
How can you say that only humans have worth but other animals do not?
i didn’t
you could be honest enough to stop using a fallacious line of reasoning.
Every living being has the same worth.
if this were true then harvesting grain or chopping down a tree or using hand sanitizer would be murder.
All Animals have a Worth
value is subjective. this is not an objective fact.
no one says they’re killing pigs for “taste pleasure”. most are simply killed for profit, and some are killedfor food.
ah, the old “name the trait” line of argument. lets just skip to the end here: the ntt argument is just an elaborate line-drawing fallacy (also called a spectrum fallacy). the inability to identify the single trait, or sum of traits, which distinguish one end of the spectrum from the other does not mean that each end of the spectrum is the same. pigs are not people. qed
no. no one is advocating that pigs be allowed to vote, get healthcare, or education. they’re obviously different, and treating them differently is necessary for right behavior
it’s not about supremacy. it’s about treating different things differently.
no, that’s fine, actually.
comparing slaves to animals is what slavers do
I’ve presented just as much evidence as the user to whom I’m replying.
