You’re far too cynical. Has it occurred to you that many people who do PR for animal-use industries actually believe what they’re saying? And don’t focus too closely on fur. What we do is no different from what PR folks do for dairy, eggs, fish … you name it.

Again, domestication and farming animals in captivity doesn’t occur in nature and it’s not done for survival, you’re writing this on a computer in the shelter of a house so you’re not in a situation where you require violently skinning/gassing an animal for their fur. I realize this will do nothing though, this is PR for the fur industry, you’re just saying what it takes to defend your business.

Animal farming is nothing but a business for entertainment, money, and pleasure. But I can understand, it’s totally natural and for survival to confine and domesticate animals to be easy to kill in massive numbers after all, we just can’t live without it. Oh wait, millions of people have, including vegetarians for centuries. It’s pretty sick of you to claim that an individual doesn’t have moral value but then again that’s the whole basis of this group. Only fools will claim that domestication and confining animals in industrial settings, and justifying killing them for an outdated product cause you let them live for sometime is somehow the same as animals dying of disease and predation in the wild.
