Murder rape and slavery all have definitions. Unless all of a sudden were saying cows and chickens are people, you need to adjust your language or nobody will ever take you seriously. Angy li'l vegan, ain't ya?
Everybody takes you seriously because you are getting mad while arguing that you can fuck a sheep and it's not rape
No stupid, that should be a crime too, it's just not called rape.
The act is the exact same. But they're subhuman. So it's not the same crime.
We came up with a separate word for it.
I keep stating inarguable reality in plain terms at you and you keep getting more and more mad. This is what being wrong feels like.
No, now you're talking sense. It may be sarcastic, but you're absolutely correct. I don't like the subhuman phrasing, but we can work with that. Animal abuse is already a crime. Torturing or having sex with an animal are both crimes. Rape and murder are when people kill and forcibly have sex with people.
