The "but chickens eat other chickens" argument might be one of the dumbest points I've ever seen.

I'm curious if you think this is a worthwhile use of time? I don't know one way or another, but I've never met a libertarian who wasn't really just a selfish person trying to justify themselves (even if they don't think so).

I'm not sure; I'd dispute the claim that most libertarians are motivated by purely selfishness. I also write lots of things that are probably not a great use of time -- my 100th article on utilitarianism won't convince anyone at the margin.

Do you believe in imprisoning meat eaters?
