South Korean dog meat farmers push back against growing moves to outlaw their industry - Lemmy.world

Dog meat consumption, a centuries-old practice on the Korean Peninsula, isn’t explicitly prohibited or legalized in South Korea

Why does eating dog meat bother meat eaters? What’s the difference between one animal and another?
If people had to kill their own food. There’d be a lot more vegetarians.
Like in the past? When most of humanity was eating basically nothing but meat?

They were eating far less meat than we do today. They also respected animals a lot more usually, with a lot of cultural and religious rituals surrounding hunting.

A lot of pagan religions were about “gifts of the hunt/nature” and to not squander those gifts etc. People held a lot of respect for nature in a way we don’t today with our industrial meat farming.

They were eating far less meat than we do today.

No they did not, that was basically the main source of food for thousands of years, agriculture didn’t take hold for a long ass time.
