Saif has a way with words 👌

"The idea of not killing animals sounds nice but it's completely baseless because eating plants kills far far more animals than eating animals. One cow is enough to feed the average person for an entire year. But to feed that same person on crops requires a genocide of rodents, rabbits, birds, and insects to transform a rich ecosystem into monocrop land. Cows graze in lush diverse ecosystems with plenty of species thriving. Plants are grown in monocrop fields where everything has to be killed to ensure the plants can be harvested for humans and not eaten by other animals.

But of course the real inhumanity of a plant based diet is that it harms the humans and destroys their health. So you're killing many more animals in order to kill yourself slowly."

Right on, its an interesting take. I like when Saif gets you thinking about things from different perspectives.
