We make way more than enough food to feed everyone hell even everyone at the highest projected world population we will reach around 2050 its malthusian to advocate killing the poor to "control population of humans." Animals are people they have subjective experience wishes wants. You can't define people in a way to include humans and not other animals. Animals are sentient all science supports this that you deny it doesn't change it neither does your anecdote. Your hamster probably ate its young because its stressed you are enslaving it. I hope your murdering ass chokes and dies in agony,

Killing is only one way of reducing a population, and is not one I advocated for. You are becoming increasingly unhinged. The primary definition of "people" is "human beings in general or considered collectively." A second definition? "human beings making up a group or assembly or linked by a common interest."

No. Animals are not people. You are factually incorrect, bad at making points, and potentially psychotic. Take your meds.
