I never said anything of the sort. Right from the start you’ve assumed a lot about me

You're right I did, I've talked to many people and get nearly identical responses often and I assumed this of you, sorry.

What I am saying is that calling meat “humane” is an inherent contradiction

Ok, that makes sense. Life is inherently not "humane", even when a lion hunts and eats it's hard to call that "humane".

so people can feel better about their choice to eat meat

Why should people feel bad about eating what their body has evolved to eat? Feel bad about participating in a disgusting capitalist animal agriculture sure, but not about following biological imperatives we all have.

. It’s whitewashing away treating life as a commodity

Yep, that's capitalism and the scale of humanity that's the problem, not people eating what our bodies are meant to.
