Some of them explain this away with "Humans have souls, animals don't".

And yet many can be up in arms about dogs & cats being eaten in some regions despite that claim

I don't care what species it is

I have three requirements for meat:

  • It isn't human flesh
  • It isn't rotten
  • It's cooked properly

Apparently that soul doesn't matter when trying to prevent it from dying from preventable diseases with vaccines and nurturing it with affordable education.

Don't you know it's much more preferable for your child to die of a preventable illness than for them to get autism from vaccines which is totally a thing that happens?

/s of course

[–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's even worse. One of the contributing factors for autism is fine dust particles in pollution from fossil fuels. And the ones against vaccines are often also the ones for fossil fuels.
