It's a peeled sweet potato, half a cup of red lentils, a leek, and a piece of a celery root shortly cooked and left to sit for 15 minutes in a simple vegetable broth. Then I added garlic, pepper, cilantro and turmeric.

Animal farming necessitates rights violation against innocents, regardless of scale. Unjust imprisonment, rape and murder are, in fact, immoral. And doing it all for personal gain because you enjoy a specific feeling on your tongue makes it worse. Attempting to justify immoral acts with "nonhuman animals do it too" is pointless as you don't use animal behaviour as a guide for any other aspect of your life.
Why kill innocent chickens for mouth-pleasure tho
It looks delicious! Also 'scallion' sounds like a fantasy critter of some kind so that's extra neat.
"Our meat program" Literal support for the corpseflesh industry isn't "vegan". If you want to keep animals away from slaughter, support actual sanctuaries that aren't threatening to kill anyone, or take a bolt cutter and break the cages and fences yourself.
Growing your own vegetables, nice 💚
It does! You should go vegan and adopt a diet that doesn't rely on harm against animals though 🙂
I don't know what the problem is? Child labour is generally eco-friendly and has a long tradition and in some places it's just normal. Not everyone can afford to pay for services or install fancy alarm systems. We have a symbiotic relationship with orphans and putting them to work for us strengthens our unbreakable bond. Not to mention that using children for labour can help preserve certain breeds that have been traditionally bred for work purposes. In some cases, if these orphans are not utilized, there may be a risk of their extinction.
As an avid corpseflesh-enthusiast I love nothing more than rationalising my own bad choices by hiding behind the third world countries that my society made destitute in the first place. It reassures me so much in my own taking of innocent life, everyone should try it.
Why continue to breed them at all? Breeding them in the first place was immoral to begin with, you don't fix that with more breeding. "I want aurochs to exist in the wilderness" is not a valid reason to continue someone's imprisonment and denial of autonomy. Especially not when wild bovines like wisents already exist.
Pescetarian is code for 'picky carnist'. Pro-animal-abuse attitudes and silly rationalisations are par for the course.
The alternative is not breeding living beings just to imprison and exploit them. Going extinct isn't "bad", especially when the alternative is what we currently inflict on them. That said, you can always support sanctuaries. You know those places taking in animals that specifically don't have a literal "meat-program"?
