Here you have a holocaust survivor who compares what the Nazis did to the jews to what we do to animals in factory farms and slaughterhouses. His words. Never does he equate a cow to a Jew, but he recognizes that both are living breathing beings who don’t want to suffer and who want to live. He gets that it is hard for you to accept that, because if you would fully accept it you would probably have to give up consuming animal products in order to not feel like a massive hypocrite. Is he wrong though?
No. It makes him an absolute minority and not representative of the general demographic of Holocaust survivors. Which was my point.
You can find black people who are white supremacists, women who say universal suffrage was a mistake, any group can have people who have fringe positions, even ones that denigrate them. Finding a guy who believes what you believe but belongs to a discussed demographic is tokenism and has no place in any serious discussion.
So? Does that proof him wrong?
