In "The Omnivore's Deception: What We Get Wrong about Meat, Animals, and Ourselves," Dr. John Sanbonmatsu presents a compelling exploration of the moral implications surrounding animal agriculture. He critiques the commonly held notion of 'humane' animal treatment, asserting that all exploitation for meat is morally indefensible. Sanbonmatsu warns that intensive farming practices contribute to zoonotic diseases like avian flu, which pose significant risks to humanity. His work calls for a radical rethinking of our relationship with food and urges a departure from anthropocentric rationalizations that justify meat consumption.
The idea of 'humane' or 'compassionate' exploitation of animals is a dangerous myth that prevents moral clarity in addressing the exploitation of animals for food.
Sanbonmatsu contends that the exploitation and killing of animals for human desires is morally indefensible, urging us to challenge our addiction to meat.
