Yea stopping animal testing sounds great, but animal testing is the backbone of drug and medical breakthroughs. So at least for now that’s not possible
Recognition that animal testing is actually pretty fucked up would be a good start toward funding research into alternatives, such as biological computer simulations.
We can simulate complex/chaotic systems, like weather, in nearly real-time, so biosim research is mainly a funding and staffing problem at this point.
Probably we’ll still need animal testing for the final phase before human trials, but we can at least reduce the need for it to bare minimums.

Would you like them to test on you instead?
What’s the alternative?

Cool, where should we test all the pet food and medical treatments for animals then?
