This started out so disturbing omg😭 Initially I thought, is he advocating for vegetarianism, justifying homophobia and racism? But then, the message became clear. Truthfully, I would pay to read your work. It always gives me something to think about.
By the way, idk if there's a lesser evil between murder and rape; from the standpoint of the victim. Js.
I think you'd didn't take self preservation into consideration. The animal, as well as the human world is regulated by the ever Supreme law of self preservation; the very upon which the greatest of evils and normally immoralistic bahaviours are justified. To put this in context, killing animals is justifiable on the basis of self preservation, we humans need protein and animals provide the most for us. Yeah we could just take milk, but by your logic isn't that depriving the cow of the food for her babies? Even carnivores kill weaker animals for self preservation. If the Goat were a carnivore he'd not think twice before tearing the antelope apart. The lion kills because it has to survive. The goat eats the grass that breathes as well because it has to survive. That we must eat animals for protein passes the test of utilitarianism. Utilitarianism isn't morality, self preservation is. Everything is justified on the basis of self preservation, even killing animals. You cannot say the same for a morally depraved act like raping animals because it fails the test of self preservation.

We don't actually have to eat animals.
