You can still provide them a good environment which is something we should focus since it's apparent that people aren't going to stop eating meat.

    Many people don't eat meat though?

    Is that an argument? Many also eat meat and starting to treat animals well is a step in the right direction. Perfect is the enemy of good.

    So true, we had always slaves and it will never stop. We need to start treating our slaves better, no doubt, but aboliation is never going to happen, we just need to support the good slave owners.

    Who is saying we shouldn't stop eating meat? I'm saying it's 1000 times easier to take the step to treat them better than cut meat consumption all together.

    But man are you something bringing slaves into this. Sure, go ahead and you do your thing and try to stop everyone eating meat while the mass farmed animals keep getting treated like shit. At least you were right, slavery is a bad thing and shouldn't have happened.

    I was just saying its 1000 times easier to treat slaves better than to cut it all together. If Bezos would pay his workers better and let them take a piss on a real toilet it would destroy the profits. Once robots are cheaper and faster I will be the first to stop supporting slavery, but until then I have no choice.

    Your comparison is fucking stupid. Slaves are human! They are exactly the same as their owners! Animals are not. It's disrespectful.
