It is wrong to slaughter animals now that we have technology that makes it unnecessary. The world could stop eating meat tomorrow if there was a virus inside meat that made people sick, so why can’t we decide to do it without the virus?
If there was a virus, the world would invest billions in alternative foods. Why can’t we do that now, today?
The majority disagreeing is not new. Democracy is not based on the wisest people making decisions. It’s mob rule, or majority rule. Today people just watch TV to make decisions, and TV is controlled by corporations. So we don’t really have the kind of democracy where people are well informed and feel like they can trust what someone in power is telling them.
