    Would you refuse to save a child from poverty on the grounds that billions will continue living in poverty?

    this is a terrible analogy because at the end of one, you can point to the person being saved. no animals are saved by eating plants.

      Good point. I don’t think it changes my argument though. If anything, allowing a creature to come into existence just so that it can be slaughtered is way more fucked up than exploiting an existing person.
