I know that you had a paragraph where you said this, but you didn’t actually explain why you thought this or why you thought others were wrong, and far more of the article was devoted to stating why you thought those arguing in favor were inauthentic in their beliefs. This was also argued in a way which gave no insight into why you thought the issue was intractable.
Thanks. I’ve seen gallons of digital ink spilled on wild animal suffering, but from everything I can tell, approximately zero has been accomplished. I’ve known a key wild-animal suffering person since he was trying to seduce a way-underage girl. I have watched his “evolution” over the years, and he is driven (IMO) to show he’s smarter than everyone else, full stop. I can’t speak to the motivations of others, but many seem to be motivated to talk rather than have any actual impact in the world. (The same goes for many vegans, too.)
