Again, I don't think your point was perfectly relevant. I believe that's why multiple people were picking on that particular nit.

I'm sorry I can't better help you understand which things I feel were mischaracterizations or conflated; it seems we're bound to be stuck at some lower levels of disagreement.

At least we can agree on not understanding each other! And, I suppose, that factory farms are a problem. Cheers!




And again, I'm sorry but I find that to be spurious, for reason's I've explained at length. You seem to feel there's too much conceptual distance between the hypothetical about speciesm and a comment about speciesm it was replying to.

So far as I can tell, what you are really objecting to is not my comment but to the idea of communicating through hypothetical examples.


Correct! Well, at least the hypothetical you provided for the reasons that I provided. Conceptual distance is a good way to put it, though!
