People generally want to be good, but they'll commit any number of atrocities if society says it's okay. Like eating meat and driving cars. It's pure, unfiltered evil, but it obeys their idea of what the social construct is, so they do it.
why is okay for other omnivores to eat meat, but not humans ?

You have eaten of the fruit of the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. A pig doesn't know right from wrong. It doesn't have ethics or philosophy. You do.
