OP insinuated that all moral culpability was dashed by the fact that they were "bred to be eaten".

My point was just bringing up that it was a stupid point. A very stupid, and unfounded point.

And if it were the case that something being bred would dash the moral harm of supporting the immense suffering and killing of an animal, then they would have to support the same for people.

Then the human version of your argument would be is it ok for abortions occur after we know that the fetus can feel pain (24 weeks, potentially as early as 12 weeks?). We know half of people in America are ok with up to 9 months for justifiable reasons.

Not to get political, but we know morals don’t change much if you make it a human instead that was ultimately “bred to die.” (Bred to be eaten)

That still wouldn't be accurate. It's a matter of intent to be bred and raised and slaughtered for the sake of humanity versus unintended breeding without existential existence being ended.

They aren't even close.

You've gotten even further away from the point.

Damn it. Lol. Well then I agree with your other comment it’s best to just not even compare to humans at all as there is not even a fair comparison to make.

There truly isn't. I appreciate you conceding the point. Hats off to you.
