    The experiences of animals are real and matter. Their suffering is identical in nature to your own. The animals we create are morally equivalent to our own children, and are owed exactly the same unconditional love and protection.

      But you being a cunt doesn’t accomplish anything.

        People are concerned about buying Canadian because they want to do what seems to be the right thing. Trade in another individual’s body is never the right thing. It is always wrong to treat an individual as a means rather than as an end.
