    People eat alligator, crocodile, shark, bear, and snake, all of which are or can be carnivorous

    Again, you just make a weird distinction. This isn’t even an “American culture vs Asian culture” thing. Gator and crocodile are pretty big in the southeast.

    But whatever you need to justify killing a pig that has a deeper capacity for emotional intelligence than your dog does as well as stronger ability for numerical reasoning skills and independent thought

      I don’t need any justification for that lol. I wouldn’t care if people ate dogs either.

      I was just pointing out a traditional norm that people usually don’t eat carnivores (because they are more prone to disease and are much less efficient to farm).

      Preach. The amount of mental gymnastics displayed by omnis and carnies should make it an Olympic sport. Cognitive dissonance at its finest
