19. That's funny
I didn't know we had to give up eating meat or hunting it, just because we have supermarkets and aren't aborigines hunting it down in the outback. I think its a good idea to temper our hunting instincts to benefit society, but that doesn't change the fact that most tribal human cultures are carnivorous and hunt for food until they develop domestication practices which include slaughtering animals for a source of protein. Doesn't seem too farfetched to me, unless you think that Supermarkets are entirely a part of the natural world. Looks like the reified commodification of the capitalist system has totally convinced you that you need Nabisco, General Mills and Coors to survive.
