I'm perfectly coherent, scumbag. You are incoherent.
You are even more incoherent than "vegans", scum,
because you can explain NEITHER why you start down the
road of so-called "ethical" vegetarianism, nor why you
stop short.

Your attempt to establish virtue by means of comparison
not only is invalid, scumbag, but is in fact indicative
of even LESS virtue. Every respectable thinker on
ethics in the course of history has made clear that
virtue does not reside in a comparison with the
unvirtuous, but rather in doing the right thing in
absolute terms, IRRESPECTIVE of what others do.

The phony, sham virtue you want to set up actually
means that the animal death toll you cause could go UP,
and you still would consider yourself
virtuous...provided the death toll of your dietary
enemy went up by a greater comparison.

Why are you so willfully stupid, jimmy?
