I ask this in good faith, and I do not mean to bring about struggle sessions with this question (keep it civil, please :). I'm writing a sort of mini-essay on a certain topic (Edit: not anymore, I lost my writing appetite), and veganism fits into that topic (I'm keeping it vague because I'll probably post it here and I don't want to spoil the whole thing). If people are on the fence and others want to know more about what Veganism is and why they should consume in that way, I would be grateful if others more experienced and well-read on the subject could provide resources or counter-reasons. I feel like a lot of the things I believed before going vegan turned out to be misconceptions, and it doesn't hurt to be more educated on a subject, right?
Edit: I need to take a break from the internet again, if my brain wasn't fried already it is now (not anything any of you started, I brought this upon myself)
When is it wrong to kill an animal?
When the point of doing so lacks use value and/or harms the natural balance of the world. Trophy hunting, industrial agriculture, poaching for animal products of endangered species .
When is it wrong to kill a human? I feel like this is a useless trap question. Regardless of that, questions of just death have been argued over for centuries. I'll try and give some examples. Probably if they're too much like a fascist, sell out our planet for the purpose of money, sell out people for the purpose of money, kill like 2 or 3other innocent people or something?
Sometimes, but then I stop.
