I dont know why you call it your moral system, when your system apparently is that the earth is supreme, humans dont matter, therefore anything that happens is okay. Morals are a societal thing, if you dont care about society then what's the point?

How do you apply this system to your own actions? Just anything goes cause it doesnt matter?

I agree, morals are a societal thing and right now it’s perfectly socially acceptable to eat meat.

How I apply this to my own actions is by conforming to the made up rules of society because that seems to keep me alive.

If I lived in a vegan society and it was not socially acceptable to eat meat I likely wouldn’t.

They don't. It's a facile philosophy invented on the spot to avoid thinking rationally about ideas and feelings that they are not prepared to process. It's disingenuous bullshit that we aren't really supposed to engage with, it's just suppose to distract and derail their own thought process. It's fucking pathetic, practically solipsism.
