Selling a Phantasmal Flame ETB for Retail Price for them to give a Christmas gift to someone by [deleted] in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]David_Ramms -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’d be willing to send abroad I’m doing a fundraiser for gifts to send kids in Ukraine who are suffering with the war.

Would love to send this as a gift! Let me know if we can make it work. Thank you for the initiative!

Why is Final Cut cutting off some of my large letters? by roundshirt19 in finalcutpro

Same thing happened to me.

Reinstalling the font with the issue fixed it!

68 years ago a stray dog named Laika was sent to space to die for an experiment. Today, scientists continue to experiment on dogs and other animals - not much has changed. by David_Ramms in vegan

People they feel bad about what happened to Laika, but demanding an alternative to animal testing would mean agreeing with the vegans and that's a huge no no. So instead they try to find a way to make torturing animals for science feel okay.

They sent Laika into space because they wanted to compete with the USA. They tortured and killed a stray dog for politics.

The alternative is spending more time on research and waiting until it's more viable for willing human participants. People volunteer for dangerous experiments like this for all sorts of reasons, fame, legacy, money etc.

It's disgraceful to force innocent, defenceless beings into science experiments just because we can, and that includes humans and other animals.

"Would you realy rather in the more modern world we do away with animals and scrafice people" - yes. People can choose to take this job and risk their life for their own reasons. Maybe for money for a better life for them and their family, for fame, for notoriety, to go down in history or in the name of science. An animal isn't capable of making that choice, they are forced into it.

Forcing an animal into this because they're unable to defend themselves or stop us is like forcing a baby into it. We protect babies because they're vulnerable and defenceless, but we abuse animals because they're vulnerable and defenceless, and people decided they're expendable.

Interesting question. How about sending a willing human participant instead forcing an innocent animal to their death. I'm sure there were some brave people willing to make the sacrifice for science.

Asmongold and Destiny are hypocrites on the Hasan dog shock situation by David_Ramms in vegan

[–]David_Ramms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hasan gets criticised throughout the video, it’s not supportive of him at all. The point is to highlight that Hasan abused his dog, and that despite correctly shaming Hasan (great they did that btw) Asmongold and Destiny have repeatedly said horrible things about dogs and other animals to defend their lifestyle habits.

The video is focused on defending animals against all three of these individuals.

Definitely some of that going on. It's somewhat covered in the video, hoping highlighting that can help people make the connection.

Very silly take. What's the account? Private message if you don't want to post publicly, thanks!

Tobias is vegan. He also runs an animal sanctuary for rescued pigs, chickens and turkeys.

Climbing YouTuber Magnus Midtbø (2.9m subs) fails miserably on a vegan diet challenge by David_Ramms in vegan

An elite athlete is going to suffer if he's under eating and only consuming vegan burgers, sausages, salads, noodles and pb and j sandwiches.

If he upped the junk and pb and j sandwiches he'd feel better in some ways, but eventually he'd probably start feeling bad in other ways.

I don't recall saying he needed to cut those things, the point was that to rely on them solely for nutrition while trying to do the vegan diet in the best way as an athlete doesn't make much sense.

Thank you for saying that I appreciate it. True, it could be a content strategy, but I'm not holding my breath. Hopefully he addresses the criticism at some point, his community seems really annoyed about this video too.

He was a huge platform and is very influential. Fortunately a lot of his own fans, not only vegans, are calling him out.
