Comment on Don't forget where we came from and what shaped us as a species. The Jungle.

But where did I lie?
Muscle tissue needs to be cut from a dead animal. If you eat it, you pay for their exploitation and suffering with your money. You pay for destruction (deforestation, lakes of shit, you name it) as well. If you don’t, it doesn’t happen, so it’s your choice.

I don’t pay for any of this, but even if what you are saying is true (it’s not), it’s pretty clear that you don’t eat meat, but those things happen anyway.

  They happen because everyone else still does. It won’t stop until you stop. I’m too old for this, bye.

    whatever excuse you give, it’s not true that refusing to eat meat reduces suffering.

nobody’s paying for suffering. if the animal did suffer, the person involved is paid long before I decide what I’m eating.

If you eat it, you pay

not necessarily. You’re making a leap of logic.
