So, to summarize: - Some animal rights activists have impractical attitudes (for creating change effectively, such as not using non-violent communication) and alienating attitudes towards non-rights-based interventions to improve animal welfare. You find value in promoting other approaches than that. - You find good arguments for welfarist tradition. - On the other hand, being against animal rights doesn’t cling right and talking for animal rights can be a good shortcut. - You believe there is an overlap with welfarist and rights-based ethical theories that should be appreciated. Did I understand you right?
