      vegan here

      I have no emotional connection to animals, I'm just staying morally consistent and not violating deontic (negative) rights of sentient moral patients and moral agents (who are by default moral patients). I'm a meta-ethical moral realist (from the Companions-In-Guilt argument) and my veganism quickly followed, because of the Name-The-Trait argument (even though it presupposes a kind of a meta-ethical anti-realist moral subjectivist approach, it's still a pretty good consistency test)

      I simply avoid actions that violate the bodily autonomy of another being, as well as actions that give a command for another moral agent to do the same. by paying money for meat, I would be explicitly giving an order to another moral agent to violate the bodily autonomy of another.

      so basically, my meta-ethics: moral realism (categorical normative reasons exist). normative ethics: deontology (moral agent ought to avoid actions that violate negative-rights). and applied ethics: moral agent ought to avoid buying animal products.

        I sure as frick hope you do NOT vote in any election, ever, as doing so would inevitably be in complete contradiction to your code of ethics as there's no possible way to vote that doesn't have a direct or indirect impact on the bodily autonomy of others regardless of which "side" you vote for.

          thanks for the response, I have been wondering about voting for a while. I still do not vote, however in the case of voting it's not clear to me that passing a vote gives a direct command to violate the negative-rights of other moral agents. with buying animal products, it's clear - money is given as a trade item for an action. an explicit agreement is made between you and the meat producer: "if you give me X, I will do Y". in this sentence X is money, Y is violating negative-rights (in this case, killing a pig).

          if you're interested and not just looking for silly 30 IQ gotchas like "heh, you buy iphones", I could send you some arguments (either written in propositional logic, like the NameTheTrait argument) as well as natural language?

            Oh, it's very clear, and not in a "gotcha" sort of way. I'm not sure where you're located, but for example, if you're American, your vote for any major party candidate will be an infliction of your moral code on others. For example
            >vote democrat and you inherently believe that a developing fetus that will become a baby if not aborted has no autonomous right and that your moral view should dictate that of all perpetual life to be created by your dictation of it being a "clump of cells" while others will clearly disagree and tell you their moral code implies life begins at conception
            Or
            >you can vote republican and your moral code that life beings at conception is inflicted across those who don't believe that a baby is actually a baby until it is birthed
            There simply is no way to vote for any candidate and not be inflicting your own personal will and ideas on others who clearly disagree with you. I'm afraid there's no way around it, no pretzel logic can make a vote completely impartial and without affecting the autonomy of others.

              good, I will probably refrain from voting, at least in many cases. as far as abortion goes, I do not have strong opinons on it (luckily, I am male, so I will never encounter these decisions). I am 100% against abortion once the fetus has reached sentience, however I'm not sure if killing a cell structure that only has POTENTIAL for sentience would count as a rights violation, mostly because POTENTIAL is a very vague term. do cells have potential? does DNA have potential? do specific molecules have potencial?

              either way, I would err on the side of caution, and as a hypothetical, if I was a pregnant woman, I probably wouldn't abort.

                well, I attempt participate in ways that don't inflict my will on others. or at least such is my intent. just making consensual interactions, with the information that I have and with whatever choices I have at my disposal. I only make trades that don't violate rights (I don't pay for meat/sex trafficking/rape/etc.). I would also like to not pay taxes, since they obviously go to wars. but I don't have much choice there, since I am forcibly taxed.

          1.There is zero data on how many animals are actually killed in crop deaths. It's all speculation. 70% of all crops grown are fed to livestock also, so less crop deaths would happen if you stopped eating meat.

          2. Animals would still be killing each other and dying on that land regardless.

          3. We would treat humans the same way. If a person was trespassing on your property and stealing your food, you would have the right to shoot them.

            Not true. It's closer to 40%, and most of what is fed to animals is crop residue.
            Looking at cattle in particular, of the crops they are fed, it is almost entirely crop residue, as non-crop residue is needed for feeding monogastrics like chickens and pigs, whereas cattle, as ruminants, can digest the roots, leaves and stems/stalks of crops like maize and wheat.

          unfortunately I am not omniscient, and if I am unaware of negative-rights violations which take place and I happen to buy those items, then there wasn't responsibility from my part (in my view, responsibility for an action requires full knowledge). regarding things like iPhones, where sub-optimal conditions are given to employees, I don't view it as a violation. they are not being forced through violence to work in factories (or threat of violence), they also have a choice to work elsewhere - farming, or simply not accepting the work offer, however sad that may sound. with the meat industry, no such offer is made, the "employee" is simply put in a cage and eventually killed.

          as for real slave labour, where humans are explicitly treated such as animals through bodily-autonomy violations? I do not support such businesses, however I am not aware of such businesses either currently, I do not buy much.

          >you are either directly - or indirectly, over the long run - creating the necessity of a conflict that violates your moral assumptions.
          this doesn't fall under my definition of moral wrong. my definition of moral wrong: "initiating an action that violates negative-rights of an individual, or giving a command to another moral agent to do such action". me consuming resources doesn't "give" a command for another moral agent to kill others through conflict. they simply decide this upon themselves without me giving them a command.
