CAN YOU KILL SOMEONE RESPECTFULLY? AND USE AS MUCH OF THEM AS POSSIBLE RESPECTFULLY? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF I KILLED AND USED YOU "RESPECTFULLY"? (DONT ANSWER THAT). IS IT OKAY TO KILL AT ALL WHEN IT ISNT NECESSARY? IF IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE THEN IT IS NOT MORALLY WRONG AND THERE IS NO MORAL EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN THAT AND SOMEONE WHO HAS ACCESS TO ALTERNATIVES BUT CHOOSES TO HARM ANIMALS ANYWAY. WE SHOULD AIM TO REDUCE HARM WHEN WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO SO(:

MY VIEW IS CONSISTENT ACROSS ALL ANIMALS(: I OPPOSE ALL ANIMAL EXPLOITATION. SHELLFISH ARE ANIMALS AND THEIR CONSUMPTION INVOLVES EXPLOITATION. THE WORDS WE USE ("SEAFOOD" OR "GAME" OR "MEAT". ETC) JUST CREATE A PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTANCE BETWEEN US AND THE REALITY OF WHAT WE ARE CONSUMING. THEY MAKE US FORGET THAT BEHIND THE "PRODUCT"/"DISH" WAS A LIVING INDIVIDUAL WHO VALUED THEIR LIFE AND DID NOT CONSENT TO HAVING IT TAKEN AWAY FOR SOMEONES PLEASURE

YUMMYYY:D

BECAUSE THAT WORD CAN CREATE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE INDIVIDUAL AND WHAT IS BEING DONE TO THEM. IT REDUCES THEM INTO A PRODUCT RATHER THAN ACKNOWLEDGING THEM AS SOMEONE WHO HAD A LIFE AND DIDNT WANT TO BE MEAT/A PRODUCT. JUST LIKE US. WE WOULDNT CALL HUMANS "MEAT" SO THERE IS NO REASON FOR US TO DO THAT TO NONHUMAN ANIMALS. (GET READY FOR ANOTHER INSANE TAKE...) TO ME IT IS SIMILAR TO HOW SOME PEOPLE SAY POC WERE "SLAVES" RATHER THAN "ENSLAVED". THE LATTER RECOGNISES THAT EXPLOITATION WAS IMPOSED ON THEM RATHER THAN SOMETHING THAT DEFINED WHO THEY WERE. NONHUMAN ANIMALS ARE NOT JUST "MEAT". LANGUAGE SHAPES HOW WE PERCEIVE OTHERS AND THE WORDS WE USE FOR NONHUMAN ANIMALS CAN EITHER REINFORCE THEIR OBJECTIFICATION OR CHALLENGE IT. THE WORDS WE USE ARE IMPORTANT

FISH ARE FRIENDS. NOT FOOD(: FISH ARE ANIMALS. THEY ARE "MEAT" AND SENTIENT INDIVIDUALS WHO CAN SUFFER JUST LIKE COWS AND HUMANS AND KITTENS. THE FACT THEY LIVE UNDERWATER DOESNT CHANGE THE ETHICS(: INDUSTRIAL FISHING IS ONE OF THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE THINGS HUMANS DO AND IT KILLS TRILLIONS OF ANIMALS EVERY YEAR (YES... THE SCALE OF DEATH AND SUFFERING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPREHEND). IT DEVASTATES MARINE ECOSYSTEMS AND CAUSES IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO MARINE HABITATS LIKE CORAL REEFS AND SEAFLOORS AND DRIVES SPECIES TOWARD EXTINCTION. IT ALSO CAUSES THE DEATHS OF COUNTLESS ANIMALS THAT WERE NEVER MEANT TO BE CAUGHT (LIKE SHARKS AND DOLPHINS AND WHALES AND TURTLES AND SEALS AND SEABIRDS. ETC ETC ETC). WE DONT NEED TO EAT THEM AND SHOULDNT PAY AN INDUSTRY TO CAUSE HARM TO ANIMALS OR THE PLANET. WATCH SEASPIRACY

NEVER.

DONT WORRY ABOUT IT. IF YOU EVER CATCH MY INTEREST YOULL WAKE UP HERE

IDK WHO THAT IS. BUT IM NOT GIVING ANYONE... IM REAL O___O THEYRE GIVING ME
