    What a bizarre superiority complex to have just because you don’t like animal cruelty.

    I don’t like animal cruelty either, but I know enough about history to know that massive civilizations were built by people who used dairy products.

    But hey, let’s extend this to other groups. Like all the indigenous tribes in the world that hunt for their food.

    Or how about the Maasai? They literally cut their cows and drink their blood. Those stupid backward black people, am I right?

    You’re definitely superior to any of those savages from the dark continent.

      Oh yeah we should totally use history as our reference point for the majority of us on Lemmy living in the modern world where it’s super unnecessary to continue abusing animals, that totally makes sense.

        Your words:

        No, I think only stupid people could possibly slurp down breast milk meant for babies of a completely different species.

        You did not specify ‘the majority of us on Lemmy living in the modern world.’ You said people.

        So either all of those indigenous people are stupid or you said something very silly. You decide which.
