I'll tell him since you're ashamed to. The LoL is a fantasy written
by one of the early eliminationists. In the fantasy a pig is talking
with a supposed philosopher or whatever, and the eliminationist
uses his talking pig to promote the idea that pigs don't mind so
much being killed for food since they are made of ****k:
"If, then, thou art firm set on ****k, so be it,
for ****k I am" - Henry "ar" Salt
provided that the people eating them never consider the possibility
that life could have been of positive value for the pig, specifically
because the pig was:
"filthily housed and fed, and at the end
barbarously butchered." Henry "ar" Salt
Today pigs are kept in much cleaner environments, so that
argument by the imaginary talking pig doesn't even apply any more.
As for being barbarously butchered: The pig is dead by then and
couldn't care less whether it is butchered barbarously, or butchered
in a more civilised fa****on.
