Yep, those awful vegans pushing their agenda for their own gains. Make ME aware of MY CHOICE to pay for animal abuse and torture?! Blatant manipulation!

[-] AnarchistsForKamala@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

no one is paying for animal abuse or torture

[-] tomi000@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Exactly! My ancestors didnt pay for slavery, they just wanted cotton. Everyone need cotton, right? I mean they wouldve harvested the cotton themselves, but it was way cheaper from neighboring farmers for whatever reason. That didnt concern them though, they had enough prpblems!

comparing slaves to animals is what slavers do

[-] tomi000@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Please dont twist my words. I didnt compare anything. And if I did, I would have compared animal cruelty with slavery (both as unethical acts), not animals with slaves (the recipients of cruelty).

Exactly. Thats why I am telling you to stop strawmanning.

"slaves are the same as animals" famously an argument made by good people whos opinions we should listen too

[-] tomi000@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Good point, but I never said they were the same, nor did I compare them. I just made an argument about passive involvement in unethical doings which some regard as normal.
