  • the beef which enters a person’s body won’t be harmful to them (the person) at all

    I differ completely.

    If you’re talking about the psychological state the animals are in while they are alive

    Well there’s no psychological state when they’re dead :-)

    more space and such,) which results as far as I know, in a better psychological state

    Cows having more absolute space than chickens doesn’t imply that cows will have a better psychological state. What matters is how much space the animals have relative to how much space the animals need. I would expect farms to give animals precisely as little space as the farm can get away with, meaning the degree of suffering will be exactly at the point of maximum suffering while still surviving, for cows and chickens.

    Regardless, I think there’s likely more harm to meat eaters due to the psychological impact of being slaughtered.

    Generally, there’s no data on these issues so it’s all just opinion either way. Suffice it to say that to me, your position seems naive.
