Would that be harm reduction?
I see things (and wrote this)) from a personal standpoint, not from a standpoint of judging (or approving of) others and their actions.
So the only question I can really answer is would I 'husband' and eat other animals, but you already know the answer to that.
What I was really going for with this post was to express how it feels to see family and friends, otherwise decent people, doing what I consider terrible things, and not considering them terrible. It makes me ask if I'm like them, doing terrible things, and considering them totally acceptable.
I don't want to think I'm going down the right road, only to regret every step later, when I find out it was the wrong way.
I don't want to pile on any more regrets.
The most hopelessly enslaved is the one who falsely believes himself to be free. I don't want anymore false beliefs causing me to remain enslaved.
