Just because something is popular doesn't make it normal or right. Maybe you should try visiting a slaughterhouse some time.

    And we are back at the maybe if you just did this one thing you'd agree with my weird ideas that I think everyone should embrace.

    If not visiting a slaughterhouse, it is about watching cowspiracy or some weird youtube videos. Come on

    Oh it's you again, I didn't even realize in either of those cases. Well stop having bad takes about animals, and start doing right by them. They need you.

    Hi again :)

    No bad takes here, I already mentioned before that I have three beautiful chickens that are well loved, fed and protected and give me eggs on a daily basis. We work pretty well together

    So, the fact that something is popular does, in fact, make it normal. "Right" is a completely different discussion from popularity, that's correct.

    Anyway, I generally agree we should minimize suffering as much as we can, but certain materials are irreplaceable for now. Leather has a combination of properties we haven't been able to match with plant or synthetic materials. There are fake leathers, yes, but they don't have the durability or flame resistance of real leather.

    As for killing animals, I try to avoid it if it's not necessary, and try to do it as quickly as possible otherwise.
