       "Still"?! It was in pre-modern times when we weren't testing on
       animals or eating from factory ranches (both of which came from

       the wrong direction, but the correct direction is backwards!

       @90sRetroFan This breed of false leftist is actually even worse
       than your comment implies. These kinds of people who circlejerk
       about how how great scientific progress is could very easily
       start promoting yet another option that we haven't mentioned
       yet: testing on confirmed human criminals. But they don't. Why?
       Because they're so disgustingly anthropocentric that testing on
       any human, even the worst of them, is considered "barbaric" and
       an atrocity, yet it's totally fine to test on a non-human who
       has done no wrong besides being born as the wrong species. And
       trying to get these people to see their humanist hypocrisy will
       get you nowhere. 9 times out of 10, they'll just start harping
       on endlessly about "human rights", failing to see the bigger
       picture

       Do I really need to feel the emotional suffering (emotional

       able to imagine how terrible they must feel, or can I use my

       Imagination can make us know sufferings without experience it
