not sure what you mean about globalization. but regardless of how it started it's not a necessity anymore. in fact it's pretty wasteful compared to farming veggies. can't you just admit people have no problem killing cows cause they taste good?

Idk where I stand on the ****ing(probably somewhere in the middle). I'm generally open-minded about letting people do whatever the **** they please as long as it's not harmful to others but without knowing the affects it would have on an animal I can not answer.
I love animals but I'm even on the fence about keeping them as pets. I think we impose to much of our **** on nature. I guess it's a little late for dogs since the species as a whole has become so dependent on humans to survive.

i'm not one of 'those' people, but at least it's an internally consistent position. i'm one of the amoral people who are willing to let animals suffer because i like to eat them and use the other products and advances that we derive from their general exploitation.
i sorta agree with you about pets though. seems useless to me. i hate it when people have exotic pets especially that sit in a cage all day. what a waste of a life. but once again i don't condemn people for it cause i would be a hypocrite if i did.

i bring it up because in making the consent argument there is the presumption that animals have rights. and it seems like if they do have rights they have very strange rights which allow their wholesale exploitation in almost every possible way imaginable.
