If person X's ideas aren't mainstream, is X more likely to lie about his opinions?

I'd say yes, due to fear of shaming/persecution/exile/etc.

IF true, should this problem be corrected? Should people with "extreme" opinions feel more comfortable voicing these opinions?

Your trait works if someone is attacking you. Self-defense. If an animal was attacking you, then kill the animal.

But cows, chickens, and pigs aren't attacking you

No, but they will eat each other, so why shouldn't I eat them?

Because morality isn't based on the actions of animals.

Many animals practice infanticide, is infanticide moral?

So you are saying animals are amoral. They don't care if something is moral or not so why applied morals to decisions that affect them.

In the truest sense I am treating them the same way as I would treat anyone. If you go by the old adage "do unto others..." I see that animals do not make decisions with regards for any creature but them selves, therefore I will not base my decisions on any regards for them.

If animals want to join the rest of civilization and show a spark of regard for us, then I will change the way my decisions affect them. Until then meat is on the menu.
