    Gordon Ramsay absolutely is not sheltered. He has killed and harvested his own animals many times.

    As for hunters not doing this, I think you don’t know many hunters. I’m a hunter, have many hunter friends, and talk hunting with people any chance I get. I’ve never met a hunter who wouldn’t be ok with this(or even do it themselves). Granted this is anecdotal evidence from both of us, but still.

    Also, some people genuinely don’t care about the animals we raise specifically for food, that’s all they are to them (I fall into this group). I see their lives as ours, they exist solely to feed us. That doesn’t mean I think they should have shitty living conditions until their time comes, they should be able to enjoy what little life they have.

        No, your anecdotal experiences are different, so they shouldn’t be used as a basis to influence or judge others.

            Was this anecdote included to justify the judgement?

            Alternatively, every hunter and farmer I know who hasn’t become fully disassociated (the majority of them) respects the animals they eat too much to do something like this.

            I’m not saying you’re wrong for judging others btw- just that in light of two equally anecdotal and contrasting experiences, the anecdotal evidence should not be included.

        I never said it was made up, just that neither of our evidence is based on much.

        As for being cringey? Call it what you want, but those specific animals literally only exist because they’re delicious, and we want to eat them. It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it, it’s fact.

        Animals are here for us to enjoy. The exact meaning of that is up to each individual on this earth.
