They don’t have a brain really and kinda just float there. Do they even feel pain?

    So is this theory of veganism to not cause pain to an animal? If so what about ethically sourced meat. Like bullet to the head/decapitation. Most of those creatures feel nothing, they just end.

    Or is it to not eat anything that comes from the an organism from the Animalia kingdom because harming animals is immoral?

    After proofreading, these sound more aggressive/argumentative than i had intended but they get the point across.

      Veganism means to reduce the suffering and exploitation of animals as much as practically possible.

      There is nothing ethical about killing a living being that doesn’t want to die.

      lots (propably most) animals used for farming meat are in pain during their lives.
      That’s longer than the time they’re dying in any case.

        I understand that completely, death isn’t where the suffering usually occurs. This brings me to another question that i proposed in response to a different comment.

        I had family that raised a cow to eventually become meat. It was named Tasty and lived up to its namesake. Tasty was treated well and killed quickly and cleanly. Is that, like, bad?
