no one does that
Ok, i get it, it's fun to hate on the vegan, but he's right and you're not.
If you buy meat somewhere part of the price is you paying for the person that killed it. That's obvious right?
Of course in relation to the cat, even if there's a healthy vegan diet possible, he's wrong imo. Why force our choices onto pets?
no. that person is already paid and paid by somebody who is not me
Yeah, try that one in court. No your honor, i didn't pay for the murder, i paid for someone who paid for someone to commit the murder. I'm obviously innocent!
It's a plain stupid argument to try and make, and it makes no sense. And i'm not even vegan, i just recognize that yes, a part of the money i pay for meat goes to who kills it, so i pay for someone to kill animals for me so i can eat them. That's how the world works, and denying that is just ridiculous.
i would be innocent. i had nothing to do with any of their decisions, and only much later did i pay anyone, but not the people responsible.
your analogy doesn't reflect the reality at all. a more apt analogy would be that someone paid to have their grandfather murdered, and later had an estate sale. at that estate sale, if i buy a watch, am i responsible for murder? no.
no, it doesn't. that person was already paid.
it's obvious you can't suss it out, but the rest of us have had a pretty good conversation about it til you showed up.
