Are we really this worried about what other people eat? At least they are eating food and not ending up like Eugenia Clooney |

--- Quote from: McZealot on March 14, 2017, 04:31:20 PM ---I'm at least a little bit smarter than PhantOS so I could make this argument a little better. Humans evolved to hunt their meat, not to have it mass-produced for them. The modern invention of meat processing is absolutely devastating both in lives and upon the envirornment. The meat industry is one of the most damaging forces, causing massive amounts of pollution, carbon emission, and water-waste. It also kills roughly 56 billion (or more) farm animals each year--nearly one trillion animals dead since the dawn of the 21st century. Those one trillion animals were raised in torturous conditions, being left in cramped conditions, riddled with disease, often so fat they can't even walk. They are often slaughtered by having their throats cut and being left to bleed out while still conscious, or being dropped into tanks of boiling water. If that doesn't weigh on your conscious, I don't know what could. To say that humans evolved to essentially genocide other beings is a disgusting corruption of natural evolution. This slaughter isn't natural--and we can say that for certain, because it is destroying our planet. --- End quote --- yeah that's all absolutely fair enough. completely understand detesting the conditions for animals in industry. phantos was saying that we didn't evolve to digest meat raw, which is what i was arguing against, but moral disagreements and concerns are defo valid |

You people realize some crabs can grow new claws |
| King Tøny:
The crab shack rips off one claw, then release the crab. The crab will eventually grow back a new loving claw to replace the one ripped off. How is this wrong? They aren't killing the crab. The arm is going to grow loving back. |
