          I’m out here arguing that the pain and suffering that a human would feel from being abused like an animal is no different from the pain livestock animals feel from the way we treat them. What you are trying to say is that because animals cannot read, speak or enjoy theatre, their cries of pain can be ignored.

            That’s not what you are arguing though. There’s multiple posts from you in there where you say there’s no difference between humans and livestock.

            I agree we should not inflict unnecessary pain on animals, which is why I only acquire meat from local ethical farms.

              I made the argument that humans are animals, not that all animals are exactly alike. But maybe I need to hone my phrasing.
