What is your argument against someone who calculates that agriculture kills a lot of small animals like worms, rats, insects, birds etc? (lemmy.vg)

And that it can result in more deaths than hunting and eating one large animal.

I admit that modern agriculture can and should be improved to be less cruel. I would still be uncomfortable with the act of killing and eating the flesh of a sentient being like me.

If we ate wild animals at the rate we eat livestock, we would deplete the entire planet in a few years.
