Can't stop exploiting animals, it'd be bad for the economy

I'm a little more upset that we can't stop exploiting people.

Even if you believe the life of a human is thousand times more important than the life of a single animal, the scale at which we exploit animals would still be immensely worse. And also this is literally just whataboutism

The post is about labor, you made it about animal welfare. The whataboutism is coming from inside the house.
