I'm fully aware of what happens in slaughterhouses. I would be more than willing to pay for more expensive meat where the animals have more space for them, or eat proper grass, as opposed to, let's say, having corn shoved into them and antibiotics to suppress persistent infections, etc. The meat is tastier that way, too.

> you're just a sociopath

Sure, according to your definition I would be. So would most people, billions of them.

> Do you also believe it is okay for me to torture a dog just because I get visual satisfaction from it?

Visual satisfaction? No. But if you want to slaughter and eat it I don't have a problem with that.

> really? lol ok

Yes, really. You come across as some sort of quixotean person yelling at windmills while most of us over here are just eating our meat. It's simply that people don't say it, out of politeness.
