"Animal cruelty is fundamentally not so bad, and we shouldn't shut down animal abuse farms because someone else would abuse the animals anyway"

ok

Literally the same argument as "we shouldn't pollute less cuz India and China"

Jesus fucking you ARE THE PROBLEM.

It’s not “no point in opposing polution because china would”

It’s literally the same people and they are providing a service that YOU consume (whatever form lf food you eat, any shit you buy off amazon, the car you drive, the phone you use, etc…) all you have said is “it’s fine if you pollute as long as you do not do it in front of me” “it’s fine if you torture animals if it’s not in front of me”

The incoherent ramblings of the ill informed.

I think most of the people you're yelling at don't actually eat animals. It's not "don't do it in front of me", it's "don't do it".
