i learned about “Judas goats”, which are trained to associate with herds and gain their trust so that other animals follow them - to a slaughter. The Judas goat is rewarded by not being killed, and used to lead other herds to the same fate (x)

Sailor Moon | “Love, huh? Maybe, me, too….”
Paladin, why do you consume the flesh of the innocent? Just because you were born to a species of superintelligent social predators that uses that ability to creating such a steaming stew of self-justification? Complicity in factory farming is a corrupting influence on your fundamental moral stance, and who you view as your moral peers. I can hardly begin to engage with your moral delusion, while you won't, to improvise a nursing analogy, pass the checklist of hand washing like that.
That’s a strong way to start a dialogue, I admit. Though your phrasing implies you aren’t a member of the same “species of super intelligent social predators” which can only be its own “moral delusion”. Unless you truly believe you aren’t human, in which case congratulations, I’d love to hear how your species developed, and what alternative paths you embraced besides Hunter-Gathering, Agriculture, and animal husbandry to sustain and develop your species enough to form the infrastructure of invention and development that allows you and me to communicate over the internet.
Secondly, my chosen diet is as morally and ethically relevant as any other benefit our shared society provides. The circuitry provided by underpaid labor and excess plastics and metals that form the electronic devices that allow us to communicate, or the farming that provides non living food made by carving away environments to sustain native ecologies, how some of those farming practices are either unsubstainable in the long term, or subjects those who rely on those same farming practices to survive.
IE: your argument hinges on a sort of moral puritanism that isn’t sustainable. And I would argue that even if we are all compromised somewhere down the line, either historically or in modern day, then the only solution to develop morally or ethically is keep trying to be better, and encourage others to do the same with at least that shared awareness of our mutual burden of being human in this place and time. It’s a heavy one, from my perspective, and I would rather help than try to divorce myself entirely from mankind as you seem to set up as the ideal.

They're brainstorming anti-spice legislation in the notes 💀
They really are brainstorming away down there. However, I like this note, so I’ll share it.
“lightcycler:
Anyone even mentioning why you shouldn't do this, has likely stolen food before. There is not a single person alive in their right mind that would risk a food allergy was someone else's meal. Y'all are just trying to justify what you did in the past.”
^^^ seriously because I have a seafood allergy and DO NOT eat anything I didn't make myself without asking what's in it.
I remember this post with all the idiots in the notes who are all obviously their workplace's food thief
