      Yeah, that’s what I don’t understand. I don’t really see any moral distinction between eating dogs/cats/horses vs pigs/cows/chickens. It seems like the only logically consistent positions are to ban it all or allow it all; picking and choosing doesn’t make much sense.

      One of those are kept as pets by a large majority of people while the others are mostly kept as food sources.

      I don’t think it’s fair that the small minority of people that prefer not to eat livestock act callous towards those that oppose eating dog and generally don’t care about peppa and friends.

      Not everyone has the gift to to think about the nature of their reality and all the tiny details that make up our decisions in this world but everyone does have the capacity for empathy.
