They don’t have a brain really and kinda just float there. Do they even feel pain?

    What’s more extreme: not wanting to harm and exploit animals or killing and exploiting them to use them as products?

    I think it’s pretty clear.

      The former, by definition, because the vast majority of society does the latter. Extremists always try to reframe themselves as the moderate ones and say mainstream society are the extremists instead, so I’m not surprised you’re saying this.

        Just because it’s always said doesn’t mean it isn’t sometimes true. Can’t you think of examples of views that were fringe but became the moral baseline?

          Yes, I can, but I can’t think of any that were extreme despite being the most widely held views in a given society, because that’s an oxymoron. Once something becomes a widely held view it is no longer extreme.
