farquaad-point The carnist is here to tell us what animals are okay to kill and eat!

I answered the question asked, why this is different, and more upsetting, than livestock slaughter.

Animal ethics aside, the weird kid who keeps killing outside cats for meowing too much is much scarier than the weird kid who eats nothing but hotdogs and chicken nuggets.

If you can't understand that I don't know how else to explain it to you.

Can you explain why some animals are livestock that can be killed whenever you feel like eating them and some are animal companions that deserve to live until old age? 🤔

killed whenever you feel like eating them

wait the steakhouse from the simpsons is real? I thought there was some kind of schedule dictated by agricultural processes and cyclic demand projections.

running a homestead and telling the children why some of the livestock are gone now

hmm, i'd have to talk to some homesteaders but I think that process is high enough effort that they're not going "oh i want steak tonight" and chowing down on a fresh kill

This is pedantic and avoids the underlying point.
