Not every animal, no, but the vast majority either overwhelmigly appear to or definitively do, including all of the ones we eat and regularly experiment on, and nearly all of the ones most people come into regular contact with.
I’m assuming you eat plants that are grown outdoors. Aside from all the animals that are dead from clearing the land they were grown on, modern agriculture involves killing insects on a massive, unsustainable scale. Even those bullshit “organic” farms do it.
the question of suffering (or joy) seems not to be that easy to answer. Not every “animal” clearly (or not so clearly) seems to “feel those things”

“we”
Yes, we. You’re part of society, and as such, you benefit immensely from animal slaughter and experimentation, even if you’re a strict vegan.
experimentation, ok, easy to see
but how do i benefit from animal slaughter?

i “benefit from animal slaughter” because of pesticides?
i am a gardener too 😱
even if i avoid killing insects, occasional manipulation of the earth might end up killing some yes
you should have used another word. the word slaughter is used for killing to eat
why are organic farms bullshit?
