When you first learn what "ethical treatment" actually looks like

Almost like being willing to kill someone because they taste good is never ethical treatment

Correct. Unfortunately, there's variability on who people consider someone rather than something. We obviously need to eat something to survive; some type of formerly living life form. Unfortunately, many people don't even understand other human beings to be someone, or at least consider other groups as less of a someone than themselves.

I honestly wonder if some of those people even view themselves as people. They willingly follow dehumanizing ideologies that force everyone to be perfect cogs in a machine.

Of course they're ok with killing animals. They celebrate their own deaths in pursuit of an empty purpose. They sacrifice everything to serve some vague idea rather than actual people.
