    Do lions make videos saying “Yummy, yummy” about their prey? No, so it’s kind of a bad metaphor.

    There’s nothing wrong with respecting the animals you eat, and we should always treat animals as well as we can, especially if we eat them. It could be argued that the video kinda undermines that message, so I kinda agree that it was a bad joke.

      Lions dont have cameras, can’t make words, and don’t have the ability to reason.

      You’re kind of unintentionally proving why eating animals is non big deal. They’re fundamentally lesser beings.

        I didn’t say eating animals was bad. I said we should have respect for animals we eat, specifically because we have to kill it to eat it.
