But look what a moron you would have to admire in order to
be a goo too:
"Dogs NEVER anticipate, nor do cats, or cattle, or
any other animal you've ever encountered." - Goo
"Animals do not experience frustration." - Goo
"No zygotes, animals, people, or any other living thing
benefits from coming into existence. No farm animals
benefit from farming." - Goo
"Causing animals to be born and "get to experience life"
.. . . is no mitigation at all for killing them." - Goo
"the moral harm caused by killing them is greater in magnitude
than ANY benefit they might derive from "decent lives" - Goo
"When considering your food choices ethically, assign
ZERO weight to the morally empty fact that choosing to
eat meat causes animals to be bred into existence." - Goo
"no matter how "decent" the conditions are, the deliberate killing
of the animals erases all of it." - Goo
"I have examined the question at length, and feel
there is only one reasonable conclusion: life, per se,
is not a benefit." - Goo
"Being born is not a benefit in any way. It can't be." - Goo
""giving them life" does NOT mitigate the wrongness of
their deaths" - Goo
"Animals cannot be or feel disappointed." - Goo
"Non human animals experience neither pride nor
disappointment. They don't have the mental ability
to feel either." - Goo
"Darwin, a sentimental person, was projecting. He
saw something that wasn't there. He was, in a way,
hallucinating." - Goo
"The dog didn't do what Darwin said. His statement of
the "changes in behavior" is not reliable." - Goo
"Anticipation requires language." - Goo
"No animals anticipate." - Goo
"Dogs, cats, cattle, almost all animals "lower" than
the great apes have no sense of self." - Goo
"They are not aware that they can see. " - Goo
"They are *not* aware that they can smell." - Goo
"Ranchers . . . have no idea if a steer they raise is
going to be used entirely for human consumption,
entirely for animal consumption, or for some
combination; nor do they care." - Goo
"Cattle are specifically bred into existence to be
pet food. " - Goo
"I'm right about all of it." - Goo
"I can explain myself in logical and coherent terms" - Goo
"my name and reputation are sterling" - Goo
"Why are you laughing at mental illness" - Goo
"I'm not stupid." - Goo
"I know exactly what I think" - Goo
"I educated the public" - Goo
"I haven't made any absurd claims" - Goo
"You have never identified a single lie I've told." - Goo
