Comment on Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?
Leviathan@lemmy.world 6 months agoWhat does what your ancestors did have to do with what we now know about modern factory farming? The question was about still eating beef despite what we know today, what does that have to do with your ancestors? Is your comment not the very definition of a strawman?

Who are you to come to my continent, judge me and tell me my culture is wrong?

The future will absolutely not look down on cultures that have to rely on animals for food. Do we look at native Americans as horrible people because they had to slaughter animals, in a controlled, and relatively well thought out manner?
Personally I believe the most likely alternative will be bugs. Do bugs not count as an animal? Or would you say bugs shouldn’t be eaten either

They would drive animals off cliffs. That would cause horror if they were to repeat it today yes. Just stop eating living animals its that simple, but if you want to eat bugs, knock yourself out.
I think we’ll find “plagues” of species more common and end up harvesting as many as possible then so that “locust” is the primary protein source for that year.
