non-sapient animals aren't people. Your whole thing here hinges on a cricket having the same moral value as a human and i don't think you actually believe that either because you'd be like the anti-abortion terrorists if you really thought there was a cow holocaust going on.
Alright, I’ll take your point if we’re going by the literal definition of sapient, i.e wise or pertaining to humanity. But consciousness among animals is well observed at this point, and I don’t think my slight semantic misstep negates that fact.
Like for real, why do you think the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act exists? Why do you think animal and environmental activists are considered the number one domestic terror threat in the US? You think it's because we've been sitting around doing nothing?
Look, I know this history isn't taught in schools, but the information is out there if you bothered to look.
Do you not know what fuck off means? This is fucking harassment. I'm not posting whether or not I've engaged in illegal activism that I just made clear could be considered terrorism by the federal government. Repeatedly demanding that I do so is fucking FED SHIT. FUCK OFF
There are a ton of vegan political prisoners. And a lot of us do sab and rescues. We can actually do that and fight for them on forums with reactionaries
it's a little different because most people don't have abortions very often. I'd feel the same as you about nominally anti-abortion people who have abortions anyway

its literally just "its bad to hurt and kill thinking, feeling beings that dont want to die when you could just go and eat a bean instead"
its not that hard
so go sabotage equipment then. western infrastructure is fragile you could go Andreas Malm it up and save a lot of animal lives.
or you could go and eat a bean
"My murder is justified as long as you aren't willing to get yourself killed doing damage that could be fixed in a week" :soypoint-1:

then eat a tofu or a lentil or something, its really not that hard
Tofu is made of beans smdh stupid vegan I’ll stick to my ground up offal burger tyvm
TIL cows, pigs, chickens, et al aren’t sapient
:the-more-you-know:
They aren't, though. Sapient just means human
Seems like a pretty bad standard for who deserves not to be tortured and murdered

sentience and sapience aren't the same thing and i will never forgive SF writers for conflating the two.
there are millions of anti-abortion people who don't do bombings. most people don't do adventurism regardless of politics.

I don't need to use the word "disengage." I could tell you to stop replying. I could tell you to fuck off, oh, and I have, over and over.
