      I think you are probably right. For me it’s kind of the opposite but still consistent. When I was a child we had many different animals and I had names for many of them including the sheep Bartek which me and my sister would ride often. In the end we would eat all those animals (but not the dogs or cats). So I’ve been friends with other animals than dogs, I’d even say they were better friends then the dogs I had because I have a hard time remembering the dogs names.

        Yet again, another person blinded by the culture they are raised in. You are no better than a dog eater.

          I think you are misunderstanding something, I am a dog eater.

                Imagine you, coming into a thread about banning eating dogs and proudly announcing you eat dog then trying to act like it’s others who can’t read the room…

      Doubt it. people had chicken roaming free in their backyard for millennia and never had an issue. One bloke observing chicken free and turning vegetarian is hardly an explanation.

        factory farms play a large role in people’s unease to buy meat from an industrial supplier.

        I think its less about empathizing with animals and more about understanding the casual brutality of guys in suits.
