"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I am just a simple A.I. Go is extremely easy, but Charades baffles me. When asked to create a picture of a woman being turned on by a man's hairstyle, I depict the woman with a lightbulb for a head and the hair in the shape of a hand flipping a switch. If you ask me how we might cure cancer, I think a good solution is destroying all life on Earth. But there is one thing I do know. My client is innocent of these charges."

Why would you think my presence is only online?

If it were 1840 and you you were anti-slavery, would you not "make it your personality"? If not, would you insult the people who did? Judging from your Reddit history, you seem to make human justice issues a pretty big part of your personality. So why not the billions of annual nonhuman victims?

I doubt you are, since you have hundreds of comments on human issues (with a few pet issues) but apparently none on animal ag.

But if you are, then you need to get over yourself, pick-me. Veganism isn't about us or our need for approval. It isn't "extra credit" after we're done with all the caring about humans and pets. It's about the suffering of victims, vastly greater in scope than the suffering of this one dog. And there will be people here who don't respond, but who finally get the message.

And you enjoy knowing that you support animal cruelty that's vastly worse than the guy in the video you came on here to hate on. And this will be your moral legacy, which your great-grandchildren will judge you for. Unless you figure it out in time, which (In the spirit of Christmas) I hope you do. <3

Are you avoiding that technology? Or using it too, and also eating the corpses of tortured sentient beings?

By your reasoning here, isn't the guy in the video no worse than you or me? Why are we on a thread expressing outrage at him? If it's either 100% purity or nothing, why do so many people want to lock him up and throw away the key? He's just like us.

You're right that no one can be alive and be perfect. My point is about the relative size of harms. What many people eat every day causes much more horrible suffering than this guy caused to one dog, and the reasons people give for doing it are also really weak.

I know what made me change at the age of 40, as well as many other people I know.

It was being told the truth.

If you pay for enslavement, mutilation and torture, for completely unnecessary taste preference, you're doing something in the same moral category as the guy in the pickup.

Telling me that that point doesn't work on you, simply means that right now I'm speaking to other people. Not quite speaking to you... yet.
