Try killing,cleaning,and butchering something for yourself,a game or farm animal.
I went on a bushcraft course a couple of weeks ago and helped skin a deer that had been shot as part of a cull. Then we divided up the meat and made venison stew.
I have nothing against eating animals.
What I don't have is any sense of enjoyment or buzz from having to do so.
And as for doing it with spears or knives...that's just macho posturing.
If an animal has to be killed it should be quick and done with the minimum of fuss.
The very opposite of stabbing it with spears and chasing it around the forest.
Humanity should (and can) be better than that I feel.
