YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIs eating animals a moral duty? Philosopher @nickzangwill3450 says yes, and the argument is more rigorous than you'd expect: Farm animals are created for a purpose, and failing to eat them is a failure to respect that purpose.
Peter Boghossian and Nick Zangwill press the arguments hard, moving through factory farming, the distinction between cruelty and callousness, and whether a horrific act of slaughter negates a life well lived. Numerous vegetarians and vegan activists were invited to engage Nick's arguments. Not one accepted our invitation.
