    Most people butter their toast with cow butter, which requires the subjugation, forced impregnation, and sexual assault of cows, at least within modern processes for milk acquisition. You’re buttering that toast with slavery. You can close your eyes and go LA LA LA and pretend it’s not true, but it is. You paid someone to pay someone to pay someone to violate a sentient being.

    You are participating in a group that made a decision you endorsed to trade suffering for toast. Toast that you could have made with plant butter, but chose not to. The group, the decision, and the suffering do not disappear just because you’re in denial. It’s political.

      God created that cow, and the act of putting butter on toast is an act of creation, even if a small one, which we are prone to do because it is in our nature as beings created in the image of God, a creator. You can close your eyes and go LA LA LA and pretend it’s not true, but it is. You butter toast because it’s part of what God made you to do. The divine orchestration of the world and human nature doesn’t disappear just because you’re in denial. It’s theological.

            Please don’t violate people like that just to win an argument again. Dysphoria isn’t a weapon you use to make a point in a discussion.
