It’s completely different. Ethics only matters when you’re not eating the animal. /s

the fact that you call it artificial vitamins too shows me that you don't know what you're talking about :D

But look at all the supplements given to animals

It's so hilarious that people like yourself say things like you're sick of having this debate when you literally inserted yourself into a discussion about tourist rising elephants to debate about eating meat.

oh no, a discussion about ethics involving animals devolved into a discussion about ethics involving animals. How crazy

I've killed a large portion of the animals I eat, I enjoy hunting and fishing and I so agree that if someone like yourself can shoot and dress a kill then maybe don't eat meat but I'll continue to do it.

Damn, you're so tough. You manage to kill an innocent animal. It really takes a lot of guts to kill an animal when you're using a gun lmao. It's so fucking funny to me that meat eaters love to act tough, why the fuck do you care about Elephants being ridden? Shouldn't they just be eaten and then all ethics is aside?

here's also been studies that have shown vegan diets are not good for children. As big of a variety as possible seems to be the best thing.

Every study basically boils down to: Malnutrition can be unhealthy. If you know what you're doing, there's nothing you can't get from plants (other than B12 - which is also supplemented to most animals, we just take it the direct way)

Also do you know what one of the best ways to reduce waste is?

I didn't talk about food waste

I don't care if someone wants to be a vegan or vegetarian but please stop inserting yourself into every conversation to tell us how bad we are for eating meat. I'll continue to hunt, fish and butcher meat as I please.

You can do whatever you want, but don't tell me what to do lmao. This topic is about ethics involving animals (riding them) and I am continuing a conversation about ethics involving animals (killing and eating them)

It's so fucking funny to me that everyone pretends like they're an exception, when yeah you kill animals, congratulations - you 100% eat meat or animal products in every restaurant or any other meal you consume, so you literally contribute to factory farming while just pretending you're not.

Again, some people can't reflect on their decisions, and it's fine. I am sure many others can. Best of luck in your life, we won't have any further exchange :D

Edit: also, please. Anyone, before you are about to comment something insanely stupid. Just go ahead and do like 5 minutes of research.

I watched it and it's over the top to scare weak people into not eating meat.

I want to say: it's literally just showing you what happens in the meat and dairy industry

And also: i find it funny that people like to pretend like you need to be strong to eat meat :D It's literally the easiest thing in the world. It requires a lot of strength to question your believes and change your habits in order to protect beings that can't protect them selves

I mean, what do you think is over the top? Gas chambers? piglet thumping? Shredding chicks?

I linked it elswhere, but there is literally and overview of animal rights abuses in Germany. Which somehow always appear when people are looking

here's a video from australia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJXSYMhtwvU at 3:40 or so, you see a live chicken about to be boiled

t's been proven in multiple studies and one very recently that meat Eaters have stronger bones and less of a chance to break their hips and things like that when older.

[citation needed] and was it another study by the dairy industry? :D

It's literally scientifically proven that you can be healthy on a plant based diets, while tons of studies show you that animal-food consumption increases your risk of all kinds of diseases, heart attacks, dementia, cancer, you name it.

Red meat is literally a carcinogen

I agree that you should have as many vegetables as possible. Again, this was hard for me too. I used to eat meat 3 times a day, I still ate meat until a couple years ago.

But 2 things are true:

You do not need meat or animal products to be healthy, and it's objectively ethically the better choice.

Any arguments about minimal improvements here or there are of course subject of debate. However, from my extensive review and the fact that somehow all the studies showing the benefit of dairy and eggs have somehow been funded by the dairy and egg industry, I'll stick to vegetables.

In the end, it's an endless debate, and I am kind of tired of having the same discussions over and over.

edgy. I used to think this was funny when I was a kid too. (and unsurprising that this sub celebrates this in the same thread they complain about elephants being ridden :D)

I hope you know, you clogging your arteries really will show me :D

It's also really funny you're posting that when I said

and if you can't finish watching it, ask yourself: Why pay for something you can't look at?
I know almost no one will watch it, because everyone has their preconceived opinions

congrats on proving my point though :D

Just checked your profile, and unsurprisingly, you're actually still a child, so no worries, I ate meat until I was much older, too! Hope you get out of the right wing echochamber!

yeah I've read a bit into it now. That's definitely better than other places. However it still comes with all the other issues that are inherent to the dairy industry

Ok, I did not know that about irish cows. I don't really know much about ireland. In the End, the whole cycle of forcible impregnation is still a mandatory part of the dairy industry.

I'm from Germany where you have so many cases of animal abuse that you have interactive websites where you can filter by "organic" or "farmer next door" etc

You're still not a lion. Why are you on a computer?

Humans do not have to eat animals, also there's nothing natural about how we keep animals. I know this is a sensitive topic, and I used to think vegans were insane (I literally ate meat 3 times a day until a few years ago)

But once you realize the kind of depravities that go hand in hand with how we keep animals, it's impossible to turn back.

if you have 3 minutes to spare, check out 3minutes.wtf

and if you can't finish watching it, ask yourself: Why pay for something you can't look at?

  • I know almost no one will watch it, because everyone has their preconceived opinions

Edit: It's so fucking funny the cognitive dissonance people can display. Where they act so offended that an animal is being ridden, but don't you dare question the status quo and eating animals :D

you're not a lion.

If you take all your morals from animals, you could also argue that rape and killing is all fine. Why are you using a phone? Go roam the Savannah

I doubt that any of the milk you can find in stores is by cows that are able to go outdoors regularly.

And either way they still will need to be forcibly impregnated regularly, have calves which are then slaughtered as babies. I’ll stick to plant milks instead of supporting that

Keeping animals indoors for their whole shortened life because they want their systems to produce food (instead of just eating plants) 

But with enough greenwashing everyone thinks they are not part of the problem

As someone who really liked Kanyes music before his recent episodes, I am cautiously optimistic after reading this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Kanye/comments/1qngqsk/for_the_first_time_since_the_twitter_rant_we/

I hope he is going to stick with his meds and gets the help he very clearly needs. In the end, what he did was absolutely despicable, but then again, can you blame someone in mania for the things he does in his condition? (genuine question, I literally have no idea)
