Lumifer, should the charge of "mind-killers" be levelled at anti-speciesists or meat-eaters? (If you were being ironic, apologies for being so literal-minded.)
I'm fairly sure it's for the examples referencing the politically charged issues of racism and sexism.
It can be levelled at most people who use employ either of those terms.
Neither. It just looks like it would be a useful sign in front of animal-rights discussions.
I see people having strong emotional priors and marshaling arguments in favour of predefined conclusions. Not that different from politics, really, except maybe there's less tribal identity involved.
