Hey that’s fine but I don’t have a problem with killing animals to survive. It’s the enjoyment of doing so that gets me. Hunting for sport, for example. Or even hunting for food. It’s not necessary in the modern era. Nobody has to hunt. They do it for fun, and that’s psychopathic to me.
Evolution has given us dopamine receptors that reward hunting. It’s not as necessary in modern society, but nevertheless, our ancestors needed it.
For the record, I don’t hunt. I was forced to as a kid, but I’m disabled and I couldn’t really do it. It was a horrible experience and I don’t want to hurt anything.
That doesn’t mean I don’t understand that others are different. I accept them.
People aren’t hunters by nature, we can’t hunt or kill anything without tools, and we had tools for less time than we have dopamine receptors, by a cosmic margin.
I think the hunting part is kind of fun. Going camping, learning the habits of the animals nearby, finding a place to take advantage of those habits, etc.
It’s the actual killing part I wouldn’t be able to do. But since I do eat meat I can’t fault hunters. In fact, I suspect a lot of hunters who do eat the animal actually have a lot of respect and sadness for the actual kill, and try hard to make it as humane as possible.
‘I pretend to feel sad about doing this thing that I spent lots of time, money, and effort to do’ is perhaps even more unhinged than the people who are honest about enjoying killing for fun.
*I could see it for people who are exclusively hunting CWD deer.
You’re killing either way. Buying it from a grocery store just insulates you from having to psychologically deal with that. At least with a hunter the animal has a chance. Can’t say the same about livestock.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how this relates to anything I said.
How does someone elses unrelated mental gymnastics justify the mental gymnastics of a shoot and cry pervert.
