What if fish could have emotions and convey pain? Would we still hunt and eat them?

Sleep tight, fischey
>>2159506
...You mean like dolphins?
>>2159506
Eh, probably not. I mean, it's not like we hunt kill and torture any other animals that feel pain and express emotions.

Fish are sentient.
if you ever watched a deer gurgle blood and gasp for air until its death you wouldnt give 2 shits about stupid ass fish.
who cares, they are tasty
Well people eat octopus, and they may seem to have intellect to match humans. Although personally I don't recommend eating octopus on those grounds.

Which "we" were you talking about?
>>2160837
The human race ofc. You're not saying that illegally sailing into Australian waters to illegally kill whales is something we don't all do, are you?
>>2160842
>we
Maybe, if you went fishing and everything you got out of the water started screaming until it runs out of air, it would probably not be the relaxing experience most people seem to enjoy.
>>2160850
Hard to see the evolutionary benefit of being able to scream underwater or above land.
>>2160850
they would just immediately decapitate it like they do any other animal capable of that like pigs
