Wrong about what ? It being a genocide?
Is being semantically right the only thing that matters?
Even if we agree the term genocide is not correct, why would this point be irrelevant in a discussion about lawfulness and morality?
Edit: Thinking about, it would be more akin to slavery, but that’s still very much in line with the op
I feel like the other person forgot what the entire original original post is about. It’s all about “just because something is legal doesn’t mean its good” and this other person is like “killing animals isn’t genocide” but the whole idea is “killing animals is legal, but that doesn’t make it right”. What’s that other person on about lol
Yeah I feel all this thread is just a knee jerk reaction because it’s something tangential to veganism or something. The more I see this kind of topic brought up on Lemmy or elsewhere, the more I notice the immediate rejection of debate.
Even more staggering here when imo it’s related to the topic at hand and not just spam in unrelated threads.
Preach. Not sure if it’s cognitive dissonance or the fact that your views are challenged in the slightest, but it’s saddening. Animals are our pals and the fact that they’re treated like lesser beings is sickening to me

See my original comment
It can be used as an example but not standalone as an argument
