- ... that the philosopher Andy Lamey challenges "new omnivorism", according to which it is permissible to eat animals even if they have moral status? "Many philosophers have argued that farm animals belong to the moral community, and hence, deserve protections from human-caused harms. A common thought is that animal protection entails or otherwise encourages the practice of refraining from eating meat. If we care about protecting animals from harm, the thought goes, we should refrain from eating them. Proponents of New Omnivorism challenge this idea, arguing that animal protection entails that it is morally permissible or even obligatory to eat animals. Andy Lamey’s book, Duty and the Beast, offers the first, book-length criticism of the new omnivorist position(s)." -- Christopher Bobier

Nominated the same day the article was created. The article is long enough, neutral, cited and without copyright problems. The hook is straightforward and descriptive, but the concept and terminology are intriguing enough to make it hooky. QPQ is done. Ready for DYK! Ffranc (talk) 09:47, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
