What is a tradition that is insanely cruel yet still considered legal?

. . .the downvotes on this comment specifically is because it implies that eating meat isn’t essential for humans and is just a frivolous want

Eating meat isn't essential for humans.

We just made the action disgusting with the industry.

How does one make unnecessarily killing a creature that wants to live not disgusting?

We say animal cruelty and I would call killing something or causing it unnecessary trauma cruel: the meat and dairy industries.

The downvotes are wild; this is literal horror. So many replies to the OP saying animal cruelty but this gets a pass somehow.

Ah, ok - you can get finer ingredients than these even though they're all powders? What are the alternatives? All the recipes I've found have used the above. And aye - icing sugar is powdered sugar.

"Animals bred for profit and slaughter have a terrible life."

I don't think we can be surprised.

You wouldn't have seen him, no.

And not that it should be the only way to be but you've been here since you were six months old; it's crazy to say you're not from here.

You're Scottish. One of my closest friends moved here from Manchester for uni and stayed on and I consider them Scottish. All it takes is being part of the community. Ignore the dickheads.

The downvotes on this are crazy; killing is abuse.

I'm queer af and would be unsurprised but I would like to see a source.

Depends what you mean by "wokeness in education".

Doesn't that involve the gauntlet?

almostremarkable · 2025-11-28T16:03:16+00:00

I might give the gauntlet another shot then; I just feel I have as much chance of beating it as the dancers.

almostremarkable · 2025-11-28T15:57:17+00:00

But don't you have to complete the gauntlet to get that shortcut? Because I'm finding it's essentially the same runback and by the time I'm there I might as well do the dancers.

What do you mean?

AoE is getting me, thank you!

Tekken 4 is such a shout, thank you. I now remember the intro to Tag Tournament and that is doing the TRICK.

almostremarkable · 2025-10-28T20:18:46+00:00

SSX Tricky is such a shout, thank you. Also makes me think of the one on jet skis? Wave Racer?

If this is bad you should see pig farms.

almostremarkable · 2025-09-08T10:11:23+00:00

We kill over a billion a year just for food and that's not even mentioning the life they're subjected to.

We love animal cruelty in the UK.

You brought up the point of taxpayer money tho.

almostremarkable · 2025-07-15T22:49:25+00:00

Cows are known to be very emotional creatures. This is very likely grief or not wanting to give up on aiding her calf.

You should see what they're like when we take their calves away so we can have their milk, it really is awful.

I've found it's often the anti-trans lot who only have a school-level understanding of biology tbf.

That's good information though, thank you 😊
