    comparing oppressed people to animals is OK because

    Because they're both sentient beings, sharing the planet with us ? creatures capable of feeling ? if you don't need to kill them to survive, you're most definitely killing them for pleasure (indirectly through the "farmers" that bring you your animal products of course). This is not an argument you'll ever win, by the way (despite you trying regularly, and I assumed I'd see you here eventually, it's like catnip at this point to you isn't it ?). Eating animal products when you don't need to is exploitation, period, and is morally wrong.

    Why is killing animals when you don't need to to survive somehow morally "better" compared to killing humans ? what the fuck is your criteria for assuming one deserves to live and not the other ?

        That makes sense, and I agree. I was initially guessing the origin of the post's title, wouldn't be the word I'd choose either.

        Even "genocide" is wrong, mind you; it supposes the eventual destruction of the target group as an objective. Current animal exploitation not only tortures and kills, it also makes sure there's always new victims available. A closer parallel may be slavery.
