Just lazy language use from me here I think.

You assume I'm not?

For sure, all very emotive arguments morally I agree with the sentiment.

My rebuttal was to you ascribing psychopathy to the general public because they eat meat, I expect you'll see a much lower than average score for empathy across slaughterhouse workers ( and probably more psychopathy as well )

Tbh, it would be interesting to see what happened to meat consumption if we introduced laws mandating abattoir imagery on meat packaging.

I think the psychopathy here comes from the desire to commit this violence, the meat industry abstracts the violence away from the consumer, so I don't think the argument holds.

Which is to say vegetarianism would be more prevalent if the consumer had to hold the bolt gun themselves ( that and more people would become desensitized to this kind of animal cruelty )

Aye, it doesn't really feel relevant. He was injured as a result of gunfire.

This tbh. The criticism of how the left behaves in aggregate is probably valid.

It's one of the reasons the left is less politically successful, this kind of excessive 'call-out' behaviour tends to cause groups to endlessly divide and fight one another (at least it's consistent)

The right on the other hand tends to form ranks, far more hypocritical but better for mobilising large groups of people behind a common cause.

Sounds like a drone dropping an energy weapon on a shield users head would do the trick then.
