No system but the ecosystem

What animals are being killed as babies for sensory pleasure? I'm confused. Is it baby seals? Puppies? Help me out here

I think they're talking about Lamb for example. They're just using very provocative language which muddies the waters to the point of being almost incoherent.

I don't personally disagree with the core message but berating people and hitting them over the head like that is just not the way to go about changing people's minds. For one thing it won't work.

I've heard that a common name for carnivores in Vegani circles is "Death Eater" which honestly to me sounds cool as tits.

Oh, like, for food? What if someone makes a really crappy dish? It's not still pleasure, is it?

Male chicks are literally fed into a grinder since they don't make good sources of meat.

Ok, but that explanation is missing the "sensory pleasure" part...I think?

For chicks it's indirect, to keep the egg production going well.

Because people enjoy eating meat. Eating is the pleasure part.

Males usually. Chicks, lambs, bovine calves. Male piglets are a bit tricky, there's more interest in raising them to adulthood but they get castrated to not "taint the meat", and they're castrated as piglets (look up the videos when you have the time).
