I never said “for any reason at all”. I said killing innocents against their will is wrong. I’m not necessarily opposed to all forms of euthanasia. A sterilisation program would not be worse than slaughtering countless individuals and neither would be reintroducing predators that you hunted to extinction.

You don’t have to kill them to protect the environment and what you say about hunters as efficient and precise killers is incongruent with existing statistics. “I support going vegan” - are you vegan then? Clinging to a violent status quo while refusing to even so much as acknowledge the moral worth of its victims, because you feel as though they are so beneath you that you can take their lives and their bodies at will, is not something I would expect from a leftist, or even a decent person to begin with. Bad take.

So you’re saying that we shouldn’t kill individuals based on how much they destroy the environment actually. Not being native doesn’t warrant execution and neither does being numerous. Some places have programs for neutering certain problematic species and while I would be careful about condoning those programs it certainly beat being shot and bleeding to death.

You could try and reintroduce the predators that were hunted instead of hunting more. And that doesn’t address the point of killing innocents for what, the environment? If environmental damage is a reason to kill someone wouldn’t humans be top of the list?

Hunting still purposefully kills individuals who don’t want to die. “Population control” wouldn’t be necessary if hunting organisations didn’t purposefully increase populations in order to have more to hunt. And eating their flesh is necessary in what way? Why not leave it to the wild animals then?

They probably don’t have the same rate of crimes but Bill Clinton: War criminal responsible for bombings in Afghanistan, Sudan and especially Kosovo. Also a rapist. Obama: Drone strikes in Pakistan, Somalia and Yemen.

Your examples are extremely weird, friend. When comparing and contrasting countries, how about focusing on politics? The USA is an imperialist oligarchy with a giant, globe-spanning military presence, dominating and exploiting economies under threat of violence and sanctions, while Russia is an irridentist oligarchy that can apply pressure on other countries through little more than it’s fairly large military force. If Russia had the same resources and trade-presence as the USA they would be almost identical. If you really want to talk about cultural values, they are generally the same. The average human being cares about peace, justice, love, joy, truth, freedom, beauty. The differences are political.

Had some random leftovers to throw in a pot 🙂

You never had a democracy to overthrow and every single president in your country’s history was a criminal, not just the latest dude. Your two parties are the same in all aspects that matter. Neither of them meaningfully addresses climate change, neither of them plans on doing what is necessary to prepare for the next zoonotic pandemic and neither of them gives a shit about you.

A political party in favour of ever increasing military spending that continues to shit on workers’ rights and does absolutely nothing to address the biggest injustices in their own country, let alone the ones they actively fund abroad. One sometimes says nice words and one is additionally actively hateful towards queer people. World of a difference really.

Cronometer ist ein ziemlich gutes Werkzeug, um Nährstoffmengen ausrechnen zu lassen. Am Anfang habe ich damit immer Mahlzeiten im Voraus geplant und nach einer Weile hatte ich das weitgehend genug verinnerlicht, dass ich jetzt nurnoch bei neuen Zutaten nachsehe. Die andere Ressource, die mir sehr geholfen hat, ist Nutritionfacts.org auf YouTube. Die konzentrieren sich meistens auf einzelne Zutaten und ihre Effekte auf den Metabolismus.

Das Problem am Töten Unschuldiger ist natürlich das Schlachthaus, also spritzt das Blut ab sofort auf der Wiese 👍

Are you aware how this community works? It’s for satire of meatheadded talking points for vegans to enjoy and make fun of and everyone here is usually sarcastic. The point of this post is most likely to humorously showcase the flawed logic of people arguing that the abolishment of breeding animals would constitute a genocide.

My most genuine wish would be to see the people caring about mutilation, consent and bodily autonomy to take a look at what we do to non-humans in animal agriculture, apply their convictions consistently and go vegan.

The alternative is not breeding living beings just to imprison and exploit them. Going extinct isn’t “bad”, especially when the alternative is what we currently inflict on them. That said, you can always support sanctuaries. You know those places taking in animals that specifically don’t have a literal “meat-program”?

Animal farming necessitates rights violation against innocents, regardless of scale. Unjust imprisonment, rape and murder are, in fact, immoral. And doing it all for personal gain because you enjoy a specific feeling on your tongue makes it worse. Attempting to justify immoral acts with “nonhuman animals do it too” is pointless as you don’t use animal behaviour as a guide for any other aspect of your life.

Why kill innocent chickens for mouth-pleasure tho

It looks delivious! Also ‘scallion’ sounds like a fantasy critter of some kind so that’s extra neat.

“Our meat program” Literal support for the corpseflesh industry isn’t “vegan”. If you want to keep animals away from slaughter, support actual sanctuaries that aren’t threatening to kill anyone, or take a bolt cutter and break the cages and fences yourself.

Growing your own vegetables, nice 💚
