..and my argument isn't based on authority - that's your issue.

That's why when I asked if I could eat humans using your reasoning you said the government wouldn't like it.. ??

I don't even think you understand your own reasoning, you are advocating from authority rather than morality.

"Morality is a social construct for the benefit of individuals within societies.
(morality is a subjective code, not an absolute)"

That's your opinion. I believe in an absolute form of morality. And neither of us can prove this, so.. That's why I say it's your opinion. I do think morality is woven into the fabric of existence. I do not think it is purely subjective, though there is a subjective element clearly or else someone like you wouldn't be advocating for treatment to be done to others which you would never want done to you or your loved ones, just because they are a different species and aren't human.

The rest of what you said is either inaccurate or irrelevant. PS. I'd rather you don't respond. I'm super busy and don't have time to argue with people who have sold their soul and gave up their morality and compassion and who argue for the mistreatment and exploitation of other beings.
