My main issue with comments like this one is that Morrissey does a good cause a disservice by associating the desire for a more humane world with misanthropic fanaticism in the minds of the reader. Whether inadvertantly or not, it fuels the stupidity of kneejerkers think those who argue in favour of animal rights do so because they secretly despise the human race.
Having said that, my ex - who is Chinese herself - thinks that the Chinese are the cruellest people in the world, both towards animals and humans, and that she'd never go back there to live in a million years.
