Singer goes on to detail the needless suffering that animals experience at the hands of humans.
In this interview, Singer brilliantly lays out the social bases for the suffering of animals. Yet when discussing the suffering of severely disabled infants, Singer is unable to make the logical transition to a social model of disability. It's certainly nothing against people with disabilities that motivates my position. I am absolutely confounded by the fact that Singer can so brilliantly make an argument for a social model of animal rights, but cannot seem to apply the same logic to disability. Of course not.
