It would be gross if the comparison sought to belittle the mentally disabled, but the comparison is to point out the cruelty and inhumanity. It's gross that you think it's okay to cause pain and suffering because animals are "lesser" in your worldview.

    Oh? If their existence isn't lesser than humanity, then what issue do you take in comparing the value of their existence? 🤔 oh right, it's not a strawman, you just aren't smart enough to compete in an actual argument. Go back to school, champ.

    different things are different. that doesn't mean better or less.

    At what point did anyone say humans and cows were the same? Or dogs and cows? You just started saying that because you don't have any actual rebuttal.

    We compare things that are different all the time- in fact, that's how the concept of comparison works. You can't really compare two identical things because there is nothing to compare. They are identical.
