a-historical garbage.

Anyone with a basic understanding of history and the period
knows that the Nazi animal welfare measures and attitudes
had no historical connection to, or similarity to, modern AR
views. The only people who try to make a connection are
dishonest and sophistical propagandists. Historians understand
that events must be seen in context, with some understanding
that other times are not the same as our times. Blinkered
non-historians are always trying to ignore this.

We'll play the game if Usual wants, but it is just that -- a
silly game, because Usual and the propagandists he got this
garbage from simply don't comprehend how history works or what
history IS. It's like trying to explain mathematics to monkeys.

[snip shabby sophistry]

Was working out the [ahem] finer points of your shabby
bullshit about Nazis and "ar" what you chose to do
instead of raising your son? No wonder he hates you.

Man is the master of animals, we can kill them at will.

Gzboli comments:

You cannot live a day but at the expense of the life of someother
creature. Your immune system murders millions of lives each day;
your every step scrunches millions of creatures. Accept the bounty
of animal food, but do so with reverence for the departed who become
part of you. You will become food for the others soon enough; and
may they pay your remains similar reverence.

Nonsense. Karen, even your *own* source calls it AR. You're the only one
caught up on semantics.

You mean folks like Boria Sax, whom you used as a source?

You're the one taking things completely out of context.

Is that what one calls a drop-out history major who, like other things
in her life, did not complete her course work?

In fairness, monkeys may humor your indulgent attitudes better than I do.

Once upon a time, our fellow Bob Ward
rambled on about "Re: Is it ethical to eat animals? OF COURSE."

No, ... It tastes more like a spotted Mark!

Ha, ... Hah, Ha!
