And neither would anyone else, unlike us they aren't moral agents and even if they were they require hunting for survival unlike us

If it's feasible to be vegan, and it is, our omnivorous predecessor is irrelevant when debating morals. Sure there are no universal morals but what is a morally consistent reason for which it wouldn't be immoral to harm animals?

I mean that's an interesting thought, best of luck you succeed in creating such a system

You seem to be under the belief that all people are good and will help eachother, sadly they don't. Most people don't really care about anyone outside of their immediate relationships for one reason or another and some are ready to exploit others for personal gain, a utopia would have already existed if people as a whole were good enough for it to exist

I mean you'd have to develop as to why our species would have more objective worth than any other, but sure that could be a reason though I don't see how wide scale farming would ever achieve that
