I guess my brain works differently, I couldn’t just ignore the fact that the animal I’m eating did have the personality of a real living cow or chicken, cows sing and play, they’re curious and friendly and make friends - chickens mostly just recognise me as someone who carries food to them but they have personalities and emotions when you get to know them. I know that about them so if I was going to eat one of them I’d think about that and think about the brutality of their life and death.
Code is just code. It is (so far) just a series of logic choices that determine which pixel to light up or how fast to vibrate the speaker - it might look like personality but when you kill it there is no fear in it or pain, it doesn’t feel anything when you kill it’s children or it’s friends. I guess I just see numbers when I look at a video game, when I look at a chicken nugget I see real suffering and real death
