Animal intelligence is a common standard used to justify meat-eating. This argument stacks the deck against farmed animals. Humans always win. Mental might makes right.

Animal sociability is a more level playing field. The animals we choose to kill and eat show love to each other and form complex social groups just like we do. We're on the same level as the animals when it comes to what makes life worth living: family, friendship, love, inclusion, safety, acceptance.
