Just lazy language use from me here I think.

You assume I’m not?

For sure, all very emotive arguments morally I agree with the sentiment.

My rebuttal was to you ascribing psychopathy to the general public because they eat meat, I expect you’ll see a much lower than average score for empathy across slaughterhouse workers ( and probably more psychopathy as well )

Tbh, it would be interesting to see what happened to meat consumption if we introduced laws mandating abattoir imagery on meat packaging.

I think the psychopathy here comes from the desire to commit this violence, the meat industry abstracts the violence away from the consumer, so I don’t think the argument holds.

Which is to say vegetarianism would be more prevalent if the consumer had to hold the bolt gun themselves ( that and more people would become desensitized to this kind of animal cruelty )

Aye, it doesn’t really feel relevant. He was injured as a result of gunfire.

Just keep it in a mason jar or similar, anything airtight

While this is undoubtedly true, I think OPs post misses the point for a more depressing reason, people generally believe what they’re told to believe, thinking about things is hard and most people are exhausted.

Sounds like a drone dropping an energy weapon on a shield users head would do the trick then.
