Absolutely not, lol. |
Rapists enjoy raping, and they often keep doing it because it feels "SO GOOD" to them. Ditto serial murderers. And those aren't even ad hominem comparisons, since animal agriculture involves both rape and murder.
Just food for thought. Feel free to not care.
For what it's worth, unlike @Bristow9091, I don't think I'm better than you. I do feel sorry for you that you're basing the decision on the ignorant belief that you can't get plant foods that taste nearly indistinguishable from meat, however, as you are increasingly misinformed. Unlike all carnivores (and most omnivores), humans can't taste protein. When you eat meat you're tasting the fats and salts and seasonings (seasoning generally being another word for adding plants to meat to make it taste better). That makes it easy to create meat alternatives that have the taste and, increasingly, the texture of meat, and billions of dollars are being poured into this (including by people you've probably heard of, like Bill Gates and James Cameron). They're getting closer to the "real thing" every year.
I'm not interested in getting into a pissing contest with who is better than whom. I am, however, very interested in sharing information and perspectives.
Also, protip: if you don't want anyone to comment on your choices because you don't like people making you feel bad about them, not discussing your perspectives in a public internet forum might be a good first step.
