Where did this belief that meat eaters don't see animals as other selves come from? It was my impression that the 'meat eaters' see all life, plant and animal alike, as equal otherselves. I do understand the paradox, for instance in theory I have no qualms with canibalism, but it isn't something I would ever try or do.
Our entire existence is a paradox between ideals. The funny thing is, both sides will always be correct, and both sides need to exist and have people fighting for them. I'm clearly not a vegan, but I would hate a world where there arn't any also. I'm sure unbound touched on this a lot, but there are two paths, and there is no right and wrong. This has nothing to do with perceptions of progress regarding STO or STS.
