I’m not talking about the consumption of animals here, to be clear. What I’m talking about is spending days and a bunch of money planning to kill something, doing the killing, and skinning/eviscerating what was killed, and often displaying the stuffed corpse. Hunters and fishers refuse to admit they’re obsessed with taking pleasure in killing something.
Miss me with the “tradition” stuff, it’s just peer pressure from the dead and a fallacious argument. Don’t tell me it’s to eat, like I said, I’m not talking about the consumption here, so please prove to me you are literate by not bringing up that point. And don’t tell me you’re respectful to the animals you kill; I don’t believe the planning, stalking, and killing is a good way to show respect.
This entire thread is giving me deja vu from a thread I thought I read on Reddit years ago.
Not saying this one was, but I wonder how many posts are copy pasted from old reddit posts and placed her now. The comments all seem familiar as well. Maybe I’m just tired.
I don’t copypaste, but I have argued the same thing on Reddit before, so you may have seen me arguing the exact same thing.
Or someone else, because it’s pretty common sense.
If you’re having an honest conversation here, the appeal to common sense is a fallacy.
You’re coming off pretty self-righteous and judgmental. If you’re wanting to change minds I doubt a accusatory stance is helpful.
It’s not an appeal to common sense to make arguments and then comment on those, clear arguments as common sense.
Maybe you need to spend a bit more time studying your fallacy charts.

Address the actual arguments, instead of trying to “win” an argument by trying to point out a fallacy (which wasn’t even there.)
