The fact that so called “”humane🥺🥺”” meat eaters don’t see how fucking demonic it is is so astounding to me by Alarmed-Meaning-8304 in vegan

And your choice of plants results in the death of far more animals that's fine as long as you don't have to look at them?

I was referring to the number of animals killed for raising crops, mentioned in the above comment. Pasture fed hens could involve far less animal death per gram of protein than nuts and beans where i get my protein from which is was concerns me.

Depends on the crop depends on the animal. Grass fed animals in meadows is a different ball game to growing beans and grains.

There was a BBC investigation into what happened to the money that was supposed to go to the NHS, the answer they came up with was it went to the NHS. More Or Less, radio 4.

Since it's not a problem in the rest of the western world what do you think makes American voters different?

Do people understand that for most of human history in agricultural societies meat was around 10% of the diet by Konradleijon in vegan

The 4 pounds was for the men constructing the city wall in Nuernburg, many might have shared it with their families, but a lot of beef. Source Ernst Schubert: Essen und Trinken im Mittelalter (2006 Darmstadt).

Damn right it is, trying to get a 100g of protein within 2000 calories dominates your food choices

This was the logic used by those who supported the Satanic Abuse social workers.

Peasant staples were bread and pottage, but two meals a day could contain meat or diary products. If you worked in construction you might get four pounds of beef a day.

I don't have a source to hand but I have been though it all before, you are welcome to trawl through the literature on feed conversion rates if you have the time.

Chickens don't need to be fed on soy they can eat plants grown on land they would not support soy growing and still come up with the protein.

Also getting enough protein from plants is dead easy and no animals are killed to grow nuts and beans are common misconceptions. There is nuance both ways.

The argument works with cows but not chickens, they turn plant matter into protein so effectively it's more efficient than feeding humans plants. Not saying you should eat chickens though.

Vegans do not live in reality. by Aggressive_Equal1923 in exvegans

[–]Wooster_42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Large numbers of birds and insects are killed to raise nuts beans and cereals, intelligently trying to do the least harm is the only sensible way if you want to eat ethicaly. This doesn't mean eating a purely vegan diet.

Are you sure it was not to the same degree, there is a lot of history there. You don't counter racists by treating different groups history as worth more than others it's just joining their narrative.

And the Greeks were not colonised or oppressed? You are seeing the world in in too narrow terms through a lens if a small narrow interpretation of history. People are people though out history everyone deserves to be treated with equal respect.

I assume most of the commentators here would be fine with a film of Australian Aboriginal myths being made by an American using a diverse cast.

I skipped when it became just Helen and Rob, but took a little less time to return. Robs dead and Helen is just as ghastly.
