Your shocked reaction sounds as if I just showed support for human genocide! We should be horrified at all kinds of biased discrimination, exploitation and murdering. There's an interesting philosophical question here. Why are you appalled at human genocide and not non-human animal genocide? What makes a human life worth more than other animals? Just because you are lucky enough to be part of the human tribe? We are an animal, which happens to have developed the capacity to higher thinking and with that comes great responsibility. We seem more evolved than other animals but which species would not think that of themselves? Other animals have also shown capacity for learning and creating social bonds. If all animals (us included) are capable of suffering why is it wrong to compare suffering across species? Billions of animals are bred, live their lives in cages and get murdered every year for no good reason other than, we can and we want. If this isn't a genocide of sorts, I don't know what is.
