I guess if I'm being honest I'm kind of a human supremacist. I think most of us are. That's why we eat other animals. I'm not saying I don't feel guilty about it but I also don't feel guilty about swatting mosquitoes.

Also my comment wasn't meant to be serious...

I don't consider myself a human supremacist, but I also don't eat other animals even if some of my quality of life is ultimately sourced from their suffering.

I think it is just as foolish to assume that humans are more deserving, more important, and more valuable than any other life simply because you are a part of that group as it is to assume the same about your race.
