I object to the imagery used to back up this rhetorical question.
It is the same society in which we exist as human beings, homo sapiens, who as omnivorous organisms are physically designed to kill other animals and eat their flesh in order to gain sustenance. Be thankful you are sufficiently wealthy and privileged that you can afford not to eat meat, let alone do kill them yourself as thousands of people did not 200 years ago in order to survive.
Objectively, wasting perfectly good resources on “moral grounds” is simply ridiculous. There are people all over the world who would kill to have some food, and you’re sat there pondering over whether or not to have Agouti beans for dinner. For goodness sake stop pratting around, if you’re gonna be vegetarian you’re free to be so, but don’t go flaunting it around like you’re somehow automatically superior to everyone else. Messed up brainwashed society indeed.
That being said, I am all for compassion and non-violence towards humans, but that is an entirely different kettle of fish.
