Should everyone stop eating meat?
I feel sorry for those animals which are killed for food. Animals feel very bad before they are slaughtered. Meat eaters are so heartless and cruel that they want animals to be killed for their pleasure. This is not paleolithic age that we have to depend on hunting.

Having vegetarian and non vegetarian population is basically the nature's way of maintaining the balance. If the entire population will shift to vegetarian diet then there would be lot of waste that will be produced due to the death of the animals. This would cause pollution in environment and would create imbalance. So there is no need for the entire population to stop consuming meat.

No. Nobody should have to stop eating meat because of your woke SJW agenda. People have a right to choose what they want to eat. Grow up, get over yourself, and leave other people alone. And if you have been brainwashed by PETA, then come out of the deception. The only reason to impose veganism onto a whole society is to manipulate, control, enslave, and oppress people. But the ones pushing this veganism agenda doesn't tell anybody that. Instead, they start a propaganda war and deceive people through manipulating emotions and false guilt.

If you want to stop eating meat, fine.
But do you want me telling you what you should and shouldn't be eating, wearing, driving, listening to or reading? I didn't think so. So leave everyone else alone. What they eat is none of your business.

Try telling the Inuit that they don't have tp depend on hunting to eat. In fact why not go live among them for about two years. You'll find out that things aren't so simple. Of course you can say well they can move elsewhere, and that they'll find plenty to eat, without having to eat meat. Also go into the northern most parts of North America, and try to buy just two or three oranges will cost as much and maybe more then what you pay for a dozen. Shipping costs aren't cheap for those people in North America, but also part of northern most Asia, part of the northern most part of Europe, along with regions in Africa, and many parts of South America, Australia as well. Those people do contrary to your claim have to depend on hunting. Without hunting they would in fact starve.
However that means also that you're telling them, that they have no choice but to give up their ancestral grounds, just to make you and those just like you happy, and thereby in extension your happiness, and rights to tell others what they will do, has to take precedence of full, and in complete totality over their rights. All of the various types of vegetarian diets are now for the most part more of a diet now of most of what are classed as first ands in some parts of second world, or the developing countries countries. Not everyone and contrary to the claim otherwise can or will be healthy without meat or other animal based foods. In fact no one can give any type of a percentage of the total human population, that can follow some type of a vegetarian diet. Even some of the dietary experts has failed to be able to follow even the most lenient existing of the vegetarian diets, the lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet. Some of whom had to even recant their position after suffering failure to thrive on it. The concept of a one diet fits all diet, is just that a concept. If you believe that, then day day may well come, where in reality hits you either personally, or someone you know, whose health isn't as good as what it should be, and no amount of alterations, or adjustments can fix.

Should everyone stop eating meat? No. Why? Because the huge majority of people don't want to stop eating meat and there is NO reason why your opinion should affect what the majority of people eat.
“Meat eaters” are carnivorous animals like lions or tigers. I think you just mean, ordinary people following an ordinary omnivorous diet. I can't speak for you but I (and most other people) get no “pleasure” from animals being killed (unless, perhaps, the “animal” was someone with the same silly opinions as you). They have to be killed though - that's what they were bred for - to produce meat which is FOOD.

" I feel sorry for those animals which are killed for food... "
-- I feel sorry for stupid people, people that believe lies.
" Animals feel very bad before they are slaughtered... "
-- have the Life of Riley; don't have to work, free food, free housing, free medical, safe of hazards. Our food animals are not tortured; because pain taints the meat.
" ... Meat eaters are ... " carnivores. Human beings are omnivores with a diet that is about 80% Vegan.
Human beings are not " ... so heartless and cruel that they want animals to be killed for their pleasure...." YOU want people to feel bad, to suffer. For your LIES.
" ... This is not paleolithic age that we have to depend on hunting...."
In the early paleolithic age, there were no human beings. Some hominins figured out "fire" and "cooking meat" and those hominins evolved into human beings -- BECAUSE of a diet that included cooked meat. Cooking meat allowed our brains to evolve, for us to be intelligent.
YOU want human beings to devolve, to become stupid.
I feel bad that you are stupid, but let you keep your worthless life.

I raise chickens and goats for my eggs, milk and meat. I am blessed to have them and provide for them as such. While they are alive, I partake of the eggs and milk they provide. When they die, I use their flesh in a manner that provides for my sustenance.
Tell me again about how heartless and cruel I am.
