I actually respect vegans that are vegan to prevent the suffering of animals.
I get it. Grew up farming. Chicken houses are an industrial horror machine.
We've recently bought a play farm and hope to raise or hunt all our meat. Only the slaughter and butchering of steers will be outsourced. Takes some serious equipment to handle an animal that large.
I'm an omnivore by evolution and enjoy meat and hunting. I'm always a little sad when I kill something, however. I figure that sadness means I'm human and is a good thing. When I eat meat from something I killed, it means more. There is a lot of respect involved in it as well something like religion.
If more people had to kill their meat, we would probably live in a very different world and there would be a lot more vegans.
The trick is not to kill them yourself, but have factories and animal farms do it while deluding yourself into believing that there is a humane way to killing a living being when the reality is there are only less painful ways. Also, from the other side of the aisle, the trick is to delude yourself into thinking that animals would have any problems eating and preying on you. If cattle had no place in human society, their numbers would significantly decrease. What does that say about human societies with large socioeconomic disparity who are treated by cattle by the rich as they get increasingly automated?
There's no point to this comment, it has been released into the wild so that it may be free.
Totally missed touch along with many other senses.
- Killing with my bare hands let's me feel the life leaving their bodies
- Killing while standing on one leg balances my desires for vengeance
- Feasting upon the flesh of those I murder satiates the hunger within me
- I become lost in the blood frenzy, all sense of time vanishing
yeah, yummy meat. I like it a lot. Sometimes i salt it than dry it myself, and god, does it taste delicious. I might be bothered by the cruelty of all this meat industry, but guess what, if i were to choose, i'd rather be a farm pig. Anything actually that does not comprehend the cruelty of this reality, and i'm not talking about farms here. Also, unlike most of us they go away quickly.
P.S. fyi, latest studies show that plants might also feel the pain. Sorry to disappoint you guys, but it seems like we are just doomed to bring more suffering in this world. You better find a way to cope with this before it became more researched.
I will literally dissolve down to a skeleton and die if I don't see hear or smell animals having a bad time.
That's why it's so important.
/s get fucked.
Makes sense
*please talk to a dietitian or your doctor, if possible, before drastically changing your diet
I've already had to drop dairy out of my diet, so I figure that going vegan isn't necessarily that much of a stretch anymore. It's not because of moral or ethical reasons, though: it's entirely because handling raw meat squicks me out. I currently have to keep up the charade because my family are kind of dicks about it...it sucks.
PETA be like:
❎All those listed
✅Killing animals taken to your shelter
✅Having sex with the animal (claiming animals can't consent is speciesist)
