    People are inconsistent all the time, that’s why I don’t think it’s weird at all. Almost all humans buy meat but almost all humans would be unable to work in a slaughter house and see what happens there.

    It’s only weird if you don’t understand how the human mind works.

      Or if you view the human mind as weird generally. Our intelligence affords us an unusual ability to be inconsistent in our ideologies, other creatures can’t normally hold that kind of dissonance in their head due to lack of complexity.

      So yeah I was calling the inconsistency weird. There’s this weird interim between primal stupidity and enlightened intelligence where humans are, where we’re able to reason about the world and can still choose to be illogical or inconsistent.
