In fact, I do acknowledge that many things we do to animals are horrific. But this is just whataboutism.

So you are really telling me that you are ok with killing little kids for "utilitarian good" (whatever that is)?

You still haven't answered my question: do you have any real-life experience with little kids? I am pretty sure you haven't, otherwise you wouldn't spew such obvious bullshit.

Now let's remember what you said in your original post:

> Why not take infanticide seriously? A 23 months old human is generally less intelligent than a dog and has a consciousness vastly different from us.

Honestly, that's one of the most fucked up things I have ever read on HN. Congratulations!
