    I get the point you’re trying to make but if people ate whale the same way we ate pig the entire ocean ecosystem would have collapsed by now.

    Not to mention almost all whale species are on their way to being endangered right now, while factory farmed pigs aren’t.

    Maybe just go with the line all meat is murder rather bacon is worse then whale flesh lmao.

      We did almost hunt whales to extinction, but it wasn’t meat we were hunting for, it was their oily fat.

      I don’t have a problem with people eating meat. I eat meat. I just don’t like the way it’s farmed what I’d propose is a largely vegetarian diet punctuated by fish or wild meat every so often. Like fish twice a week and venison on Sunday or something. As for whale, it’s not really commonly eaten in many places and as long as people don’t take too many, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.
