Comment on Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?
CursedByTheVoid@lemmy.world 7 months agoProbably because they do. Choosing to slaughter billions of sentient creatures every year for food and accessorization, when the majority of us have an abundance of other options, is morally fucked… and this is coming from somebody who eats meat with some frequency.
Just because we like it, or because it’s easier, or because it’s “tradition” doesn’t mean it’s morally righteous, it just means we’re selfish assholes 💀
When people lash out at vegans it’s always painfully obvious they’re fighting cognitive dissonance… Eat meat and revel in the immorality if you so desire, no one’s stopping you; but don’t fucking lie to yourself, and don’t get butthurt when someone holds a mirror up to your face because they’re tired of seeing billions of lives snuffed out due to pure hubris.
