    we no longer find ethical.

    Who’s this ‘we’? I would like an explanation of why it’s more ethical to eat some animals than others, please.

      I don’t believe anybody can specify who exactly formulates cultural norms. The “we” here is used in the abstract.

      In this case, there will be a group of people who share a common moral principle.

      I can’t help with providing an explanation for why it would be more ethical to eat some animals than others, because my personal principle is that it’s unethical to eat any animal.

        Ok but that we group can choose not to eat meat. That’s their choice but they don’t get to force that on others.
