I agree animal liberation should be supported, the same way charity should be supported. But not all good things are socialism, and socialism does not encompass all good things.
The bottom line for me is that animals cannot be my comrades the same way people can. They cannot organize and take action the same way people can. Animal liberation can only be accomplished after capitalism is defeated, and it's people, not animals, who will accomplish that. So how can I say animal liberation and worker liberation are equal priorities for socialists?
