BILLIONS of LIVING and CONSCIOUS 1 DAY OLD CHICKS are KILLED put on conveyor belts leading to BLENDERS every single year.Millions of male chicks who can’t lay eggs and are not meat breed chickens are killed every year this way in countries like United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, etcIf an animal is living a mostly bad life, suffering massively in a factory farm and experiencing little wellbeing then it’s wrong to breed them into existence.If an animal is living a mostly good life, perhaps on a pasture then it’s wrong to cut their mostly good life short by executing them when they’re a healthy teenager.Why take a utilitarian / hedonistic view of “non humans” but take an inalienable rights view towards “humans” ?An individual consumer choosing to purchase or boycott animal products is personally responsible for extra chicks being killed or spared. If you are not vegan you are personally causing this to happen to more animals here’s proofhttps://philarchive.org/rec/MCMAIOhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=brKhhZlUoOc (Only first few minutes of this video are relevant)https://benthams.substack.com/p/the-causal-inefficacy-objection-ishttps://wonderandaporia.substack.com/p/being-vegan-makes-a-differencehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ABKAbFUnNwUAnd the comments and back and forth of this for any objections you may have to the efficacy of individual boycott of real meat which have already been debunked https://www.reddit.com/r/DebateAVegan/comments/1otuhqv/individual_boycott_of_meat_does_matter/

The females are worse off https://welfarefootprint.org/books/eggshttps://welfarefootprint.org/books/eggsWhat’s the most painful thing that ever happened to you? Seriously take a moment and contemplate it, try, in as much detail as you can, to remember what it was like. Maybe, for a few of you it was childbirth, an experience which, when it takes place without anesthesia, is temporarily completely debilitating. Nothing other than the pain occupies the mind of the sufferer.Perhaps it was getting a tattoo. Someone on Quora summarized the pain of getting a tattoo in the following way:>They hurt.>There are between one and 20 needles being poked through your skin hundreds of thousands of time in a single session. The number of needles will determine the type and intensity of pain. So expect it. The real question is how much will it hurt.I’ve been quite lucky and never experienced any particularly severe pain. I can remember quite a few times I’ve had pretty intense pain, barely eating for two days, having a doctor press down on my infected finger until it popped when I was 8, having a very severe stomach ache, falling out of a treehouse (though remaining in the tree) and banging my chin on the side of it, but nothing has been that bad. I’d guess the worst experience of my life is a lot less painful than a wrist tattoo.The most painful experience that most of us have ever had is classified as disabling pain. This is the sort of pain that’s bad enough that during it you can’t enjoy doing anything else, you can’t, for instance, enjoy a game of chess while giving birth, and that makes it impossible to focus on anything other than the pain. Examples of this kind of pain include a very painful fall, breaking a bone, burning yourself, giving birth, severe dog bites, getting a tattoo, kidney stones, and hemorrhoids.
>>546273805Jews in nyc are killing turkeys now too. A Goy on the ground is making a documentary about it. Here’s some trailers for it with sound https://youtube.com/shorts/uXt7vKNrheM https://youtube.com/shorts/lI-ucGrxs3EWhile we often forget about these later, when they’re happening, they feel like the most significant thing in the world. They’re extremely bad, if you offered me $1,000 to get severely bitten by a dog, its teeth ripping off a chunk of my flesh, or have needles pierce my skin hundreds of times, I wouldn’t take the deal. Certainly I wouldn’t undergo childbirth for 1,000 dollars, especially if it was without anestheticSadly, on average, the animals that we eat endure hundreds of hours of this kind of debilitating agony over the course of their life. They endure somewhere on the order of an hour a day of this pain.I’ll just discuss one such case, the case of the egg-laying hen, with the facts gathered from this report. https://welfarefootprint.org/research-projects/laying-hens/Egg-laying hens in conventional farms endure about 400 hours (!!!!!) of this kind of disabling agony. Remember, this is agony about as bad as the worst thing that’s ever happened to you, unless you’ve had an experience as bad as being severely tortured. This is the agony that makes it impossible to think of anything else. The hens endure about an hour of a day of this extremely intense agony.This intense pain comes from many sources including (this list is non-exhaustive):Bone fractures.The majority of hens experience a bone fracture over the course of their life. On average, they have three. Imagine if you broke the same bone three times This is, and I can’t emphasize this enough, what most hens deal with the industry that produces our eggs is so cruel that it breaks the bones of most hens multiple times.In fact, the situation is much worse for hens than it would be for us because the area around their keel bone,
>>546273856which is the most common kind of fracture, has a huge number of nerves. While such experiences in humans usually produce disabling pain for about a day, for chickens, such pain lasts about a weekOften the bone doesn’t heal properly, leading to constant intense agonyInjurious pecking.In a hen's natural environment, she’ll spend most of her time pecking the ground looking for food. In a modern farm, hens can’t do that, so they spend a lot of their time pecking other hens, often leading to severe injury (just imagine that you were being bitten all the time by people surrounding you). It’s not terribly uncommon for hens to be pecked to death (seriously imagine what it would be like for that to happen) or for pecking to affect a hen’s body part known as the vent which is particularly sensitive (in this case, for the males reading this, imagine someone biting your balls). Often this becomes infected.Every one of a hen’s natural behaviors are thoroughly squashed in the farms. Hens cannot make a nest prior to laying an egg, which causes them quite severe distress. Hens are willing to undergo strong electric shocks in order to get a suitable nest, about as strong as the electric shocks they’ll endure in order to get food after being starved for 28 hours (!!!!!). Remember, hens lay an egg roughly daily! This may not seem like a big deal, but only because we don’t appreciate the experience of being a nesting hen; an alien wouldn’t understand why we care about sex so much. Konrad Lorenz, a nobel prize winner summarized:>“The worst torture to which a battery hen is exposed is the inability to retire somewhere for the laying act. For the person who knows something about animals it is truly heart-rending to watch how a chicken tries again and again to crawl beneath her fellow-cage mates to search there in vain for cover”
>>546273501I’m pretty sure chickens are fucking retarded though

>>546273501>If you are not vegan you are personally causing this to happen to more animalsshitlibs should be stuffed on those conveyor belts, including op.
>>546273891Whenever you purchase a few cartons of eggs, you are consigning a chicken to living in these, excruciating conditions. Before you next purchase eggs, or chicken, or most any other animal product, though eggs are likely the worst, remember what the worst experience of your life is like, and vividly consider the fact that your purchase will likely cause others to endure many hours of an experience just as bad.Tragically, the true scenario is much worse than that. Even worse than these scenarios of intense yet bearable pain are experiences that the authors of the report call excruciating pain. This is the sort of pain experienced when a person is brutally tortured or slowly eaten alive or burned to death for minutes; the sorts of pain that, if you’re really brave, you can read about in some detail here. https://www.simonknutsson.com/the-seriousness-of-suffering-supplement They’re horrible enough to take on an almost qualitatively different dimension, something most of us wouldn’t trade for many decades of happy life. This kind of pain is literally inconceivable, it’s so bad that many people who experience it attempt suicide. A hen might experience this right as she’s being trampled and pecked to death.Hens experience, on average, about two and a half minutes of this horrifying agony. The hundreds of hens that the average person eats over the course of their life (and yes, your consumption of eggs does cause more hens to be brought into existence, mistreated, and killed) mean that the average person is probably causing several hours of this unfathomable agony, the sort of agony one experiences in the minutes that they die from burning, boiling, being eaten alive, or suffocating to death; the kind of agony worse than being mauled by a dog, worse than childbirth, worse by orders of magnitude than anything you’ve ever experienced>>546273901So are human newborns. It’s still wrong to Circumcise them and it’s worse if no anesthetic is used

>>546273974The kind of experience that, to take a contemporary example, George Floyd probably experienced for the minutes that he was suffocating. (Fentanyl)The average meat eater causes hours of that!This is why factory farming is such a great moral emergency. It’s the cause of agony beyond what we could hope to imagine. Amounts we cannot fathom of agony that we cannot fathom. It’s not just egg-laying hens that experience this; it’s ubiquitous in the entire factory farming industry. As Ren says in an https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/xtcgsLA2G8bn8vj99/reminding-myself-just-how-awful-pain-can-get-plus-an#Miscellaneous_thoughts_and_takeaways article that’s very worth reading, describing her own experience with fairly intense pain:A single broiler chicken experiences fifty hoursofhttps://www.pain-track.org/broilers[disabiling] pain during their lifespan, which lasts 4-6 weeks. There are 69 billion broilersslaughtered each year. That is so many hours of pain that if you divided those hours among humanity, each human would experience about 400 hours (2.5 weeks) of disabling pain every year. Can you imagine if instead of getting, say, your regular fortnight vacation from work or study, you experienced disabling-level pain for a whole 2.5 weeks? And if every human on the planet - me, you, my friends and family and colleagues and the people living in every single country - had that same experience every year?How hard would I work in order to avert suffering that urgent?

But I guess I should be vegan because I feed this stupid worthless bird and take care of him instead of putting him in the wood chipper.
But what other meat should I eat if I don't have eggs for breakfast? Pork sausage? A t-bone? What am I supposed to use as a binder for cooking crab cakes and lots of other dishes? What am I supposed to drink on the go for breakfast if not blended raw egg and orange juice?You provide zero meat or seafood alternatives OP.
>>546274173Fur farming (especially of foxes and mink in small barren wire cages), which remains legal in Finland.Finland is one of the last EU countries where this is still permitted (most others have banned or heavily restricted it). There are roughly 300–400 active farms (concentrated in Ostrobothnia), mostly family operations, producing hundreds of thousands of foxes (blue/Arctic and silver/red) and mink annually, plus some raccoon dogsWhy it is widely regarded as among the most cruel practices still legalLifelong confinement: Animals (semi-wild species with strong needs to dig, run, hunt, swim/explore) spend their entire lives in small, barren wire-mesh cages (typically on the order of 0.8 m2 or similar for foxes). They cannot perform natural behaviors. EFSA’s 2025 scientific opinion on animals kept for fur production concluded that the most relevant welfare consequences—restriction of movement, inability to forage/explore, and sensory under-/overstimulation—cannot be prevented or substantially mitigated in the current cage systems used across the EU (including Finland). Limited improvements are possible for feeding, but core issues require a fundamentally different system.Selective breeding and health problems: “Monster” or obese foxes selectively bred for larger pelts often develop excessive skin folds, mobility issues, wounds, infections, and deformed feet. Investigations (including 2024 undercover work by Humane Society International and Finnish group Oikeutta eläimille) have repeatedly documented open wounds, infected eyes, splayed feet, and stereotypic (repetitive stress) behaviors even on farms claiming high standards under schemes like SAGA/WelFur.Killing methods: Foxes are typically killed by electrocution with electrodes placed in the mouth and rectum (anal electrocution) to avoid damaging the pelt; this requires restraint and causes high stress before (and sometimes during) the process.

It documented issues such as infections (eyes, ears, tails), deformed or splayed feet, obese “monster” foxes bred for larger pelts, and other welfare problems, despite many farms being SAGA Furs-certified with claims of high welfare standards. The material was released to support the EU-wide Fur-Free Europe petition calling for a ban on fur farming and sales.Finnish industry group FIFUR (Finnish Fur Breeders’ Association) responded that the footage was selective, that the farms were certified, and that conditions were regulated with veterinary oversight. There are no reports of these specific farms being closed by authorities because of the investigation.

>>546277215You are on team turkey rapistanti beastiality laws have exceptions written into them for artificial inseminationHave you ever wondered how the turkeys are produced? The industry has a problem with producing turkeys, because they’ve genetically engineered the turkeys to be too large to breed properly. A turkey in the wild is only 8 pounds by the age of four months, while the turkeys we confine are 41 pounds by that time. This is the equivalent of a 4-month-old baby being over 75 pounds.So, how do they produce more turkeys? They employ a procedure that we would uncontroversially call rape if done to a human, yet is given the clinical name artificial insemination. This involves holding down a male turkey, forcibly masturbating him, collecting the semen in a beaker, holding down a female turkey, and forcibly injecting the male semen into the female turkey, even as she thrashes and tries to get away. In nature, female turkeys evolved to be quite selective about those they mate with, and unsurprisingly find the experience terrifying. Those injecting the turkey semen into the female turkeys do this ghastly procedure about once every 12 seconds. One person who worked in the industry described:
>>546277405>The hens weigh 20 to 30 pounds and are terrified, beating their wings and struggling in panic. They go through this every week for more than a year, and they don’t like it. Once you have grabbed her with one hand, you flop her down chest first on the edge of the pit with the tail end sticking up. You put your free hand over the vent and tail and pull the rump and tail feathers upward. At the same time, you pull the hand holding the feet downward, thus “breaking” the hen so that her rear is straight up and her vent open. The inseminator sticks his thumb right under the vent and pushes, which opens it further until the end of the oviduct is exposed. Into this, he inserts a straw of semen connected to the end of a tube from an air compressor and pulls a trigger, releasing a shot of compressed air that blows the semen solution from the straw and into the hen’s oviduct. Then you let go of the hen and she flops away.Unsurprisingly, this is similarly unpleasant for the humans working in the industry. The same worker described:>It was the hardest, fastest, dirtiest, most disgusting, worst-paid work I have ever done. For ten hours we grabbed and wrestled birds, jerking them upside down, facing their pushed-open assholes, dodging their spurting shit, while breathing air filled with dust and feathers stirred up by panicked birds. Through all that, I received a torrent of verbal abuse from the foreman and others on the crew. I lasted one day.So that’s where turkeys come from. The industry holds down female turkeys and injects male turkey semen into them so that they can continue producing hideous monstrosities too large and disabled to breed, because that produces more turkey flesh.

Factory farming and slaughterhouses in which a single person kills thousands of animals are used because they are extremely efficient compared to pasture raised animal products

>>546277554As a traditional farmer, from my perspective your views are pretty retarded.Vegans and vegetarians are fine 2026, if anything it's probably preferable. We bastardized food so much and made it so easy and accessible it's admirable they have the self control.I don't.They genuinely are morally superior. They don't need to be so fucking annoying about it tho. There are ways in which people are morally superior to them.
>>546277554You can say you don’t support it but if you support the earth having billions of non vegan humans on it, then factory farming, artificial insemination, etc is the only way to feed each of those billions of humans each a significant amount of animal products. The earth doesn’t have enough resources for billions of humans to each get a significant amount of wild or pasture raised locally slaughtered animal products
>>546277553>It’s impossible to feed billions of people a diet with a significant amount of traditional farmer or hunted wild animal products.Absolutely wrong. The exact same amount of land could be used if each factory farm were broken up by many other factory farms. If we increased welfare, we would only decrease density and get away with it because we would be reducing waste (the current system wastes 1/4-1/5 animals) Only human labor use would go up, and good thing too, because my countrymen are going homeless while tech giants import indian slaves and outsource all productive work.Not only that, but we have enough land to use even more of it if need beConcentrated operations were created by USDA regulatory frameworks, not practical need.We also have a massive deer overpopulation issue. Rather than reintroducing wolves (a dangerous nuisance animal that no longer has a place in the modified ecosystem), wild deer should be regularlyhunted by corporate hunting forces for public consumption.>>546277701Yeah, its immoral because they're A PERSON.>In many cases it should be preventedSatanic faggot with inverted morality. Animals have no moral agency. They are natural creations operating as they should, non-sentient, borderline thoughtless, living the life they evolved to.>>546277708They are morally inferior cretins that would eat an egg or die if the factories stopped pumping out supplements and the trucks stopped delivering out of season and exotic produce.Veganism is a godless virtue signaling luxury for upper classmen with too much free time and unproductively utilized capital. It's such an unnatural and self-harming practices that 75% who fall for this inverted satanic morality fail due to health issues. It doesn't scale. Even meat restriction (ie: india) causes a massive lowering of human quality - overall health, body size, and brain development suffer.

>>546277960Slaughterhouse workers are convicts on parole trying to avoid being sent back to prison by working a job they hate because it’s barely better than prison and illegal immigrants. People hate working in slaughterhouses. It is constrained, not strictly impossible—but the biophysical and efficiency realities make a major global shift to traditional/pasture-raised or hunted animal products far more land- and resource-intensive than intensive systems for the same output.Livestock already uses roughly 80% of agricultural land (grazing + feed cropland) while supplying only about 17–18% of global calories and ~37–38% of protein. Roughly half of habitable land is already in agriculture. Much grazing land is marginal (steep, arid, short growing seasons) and poorly suited to crops, so ruminants can convert otherwise unused biomass into food. That is a real advantage of extensive systems. However, intensive systems are more efficient per unit of meat/milk/eggs because of faster growth, better feed conversion, and less land overall (even accounting for feed crops). Grass-fed or fully pasture-based beef, in particular, has high land demands.
>>546273501Circumcision is literally worse
>>546277960Land and “breaking up” factory farmsSplitting large operations into many smaller intensive ones uses similar land and feed if density and production stay high—it does not automatically free capacity or match traditional low-density systems. True traditional or high-welfare pasture systems reduce stocking density and typically require substantially more land per unit of output. U.S. analyses indicate existing pasture resources can support only about 27% of current beef production on grass alone; including some forage crops (which can compete with human food) raises that toward ~45–60%, still well short of current levels without expansion or yield gains. Scaling Western-style high-meat diets globally already pushes against or beyond available habitable land in modeling exercises. Lower per-capita animal-product intake, focused use of marginal lands, and productivity improvements make higher shares of traditional products more feasible; matching today’s global volumes with far more extensive methods does not.Waste, welfare, and mortalityRoutine mortality in modern feedlots is typically around 1–1.5% for cattle on feed (higher historically in some data sets, with respiratory disease a major cause). Poultry and swine finishing rates are also low single digits in well-managed systems; newborns are higher (e.g., ~10% for piglets). These are not the 20–25% “waste” levels claimed. Higher welfare (more space, outdoor access) can improve some health and behavior outcomes but generally increases land, feed, or labor requirements and can raise certain risks (predation, parasites, disease exposure) until management adapts. Efficiency gains from density and controlled environments are why intensive systems dominate volume.
>>546277960Regulations and concentrationConcentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are defined and permitted mainly under EPA Clean Water Act rules (NPDES for manure/waste discharges), with roots in the 1970s and major updates in 2003/2008. USDA shapes broader farm policy (subsidies, research, farm bills) that has influenced cheap grain and scale, but concentration was driven primarily by economies of scale, genetics/nutrition/housing technology, vertical integration by processors, and market forces—not by regulations that mandated large operations. Regulations address the externalities (water/air pollution) created by concentration. Compliance costs can favor larger operators who can spread them, and some policies have subsidized the intensive model, but the claim that USDA regulatory frameworks “created” CAFOs as a practical necessity is overstated.Hunted wild productsSustainable wild harvests contribute meaningfully in places (U.S. big-game hunting yields hundreds of thousands of tons of meat annually and can support local food security and conservation funding). Globally, however, carrying capacity limits them. Overhunting is a documented threat to wildlife populations; models for tropical forests often suggest sustainable wild protein supports on the order of ~1 person per km2 or similar low densities. It is not a scalable primary source for billions without severe ecological costs.Labor and land availabilityMore extensive systems do use more labor per unit of output. That is a real tradeoff, separate from whether the biophysical capacity exists.
>>546277960There is additional marginal land in some regions, and productivity gains (rotational grazing, better genetics, etc.) can raise output from existing pastures, but expanding high-volume traditional production at current consumption levels implies either more land conversion, higher prices, or reduced total animal-product supply.In short, significant animal products from mixed or more traditional systems are possible—especially ruminants on land unsuitable for crops, combined with lower overall meat consumption in high-intake regions and continued efficiency gains. Matching today’s global volumes and dietary patterns primarily with low-density traditional or hunted products runs into hard land, feed, and ecological limits that intensive systems were developed to overcome. The data show efficiency differences and land constraints more than a pure regulatory artifact.

There are many different DRD4 alleles coding different numbers of 48 base pairs from two repeats to 11 repeats. Almost all alleles in East Asian populations are 2- and 4-repeats, while 7-repeats are found in about 20–30% of Europeans, Africans, and Polynesians. Some Amazonian tribes have more than 50% of this allele>A longer repeat means a smaller number of dopamine receptors, hence, more stimuli are necessary for the carrier to feel satisfied. This makes individuals with longer repeats more attracted to novel ideas and experiences, which lead to novelty-seeking behavior. Especially, the 7-repeat allele has been recognized as the gene for novelty-seeking behavior and impulsivityhttps://www.snpedia.com/index.php/Rs53576>rs53576 is a silent G to A change in the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) gene. Studies have demonstrated that individuals with the G allele are more empathetic, feel less lonely, employ more sensitive parenting techniques, and have lower rates of autismAsians are genetically bound to be slave drones and have zero independent thinking. They also have the highest rate of a mutation that makes them unable to feel empathy towards humans and animals alike. Being a gook means you lack understanding of suffering.

So I am okay with abortions prior to that timeframe.It's hard to say what the levels of sentience equate to at each week. But I wouldn't not assume this is a miniscule amount of sentience. Many EEG brain patterns observed in fetal brains as early as 6.1-6.4 weeks ( high voltageslow waves with superimposed fast activity) are comparable to mature birds, mature frogs, mature rabbits and the mature marmot. We can even observe sleep spindles in the fetal brain this early.Does this prove the same degree of sentience? No. Does this give us reason to take the precautionary principle with respect to this degree of sentience? Yes

>>546279557There are different kinds of egoism: psychological and ethical. Psychological egoism says that people always and only act in their self-interest. Ethical egoism says that people should only act in their self-interest. The big problem with ethical egoism is that it's totally ridiculous. Suppose that you could press a button which gives you some benefit but tortures a bunch of galaxies full of people. You obviously shouldn't press it. But ethical egoism says you should.Ethical egoists, in response to this objection, often try to tell some story about why pressing the button would really be bad for you. But we can stipulate away these features: imagine you'd feel no remorse, you can't trade with the people, no one will know, your memory will be wiped, etc. It still seems wrong to press it.What about psychological egoism which says that people always only act in their own self-interest? This is just very implausible as a fact
>>546273501Build a big one for shitskins
>>546279557about human psychology. Sometimes people throw themselves on a bomb to save their friends or toil for years so their children can have a better life. It's implausible that this is really in their self-interest. I think basically all good people all the time do things that aren't in their interest.I sometimes wonder whether psychological egoists have ever met a parent. Isn't it obvious that people often do things for their children's sake, not for their own?In response to this argument, psychological egoists start trying to tell some story about how the real thing motivating this behavior is that you feel bad when you behave badly because of guilt. That's true enough, but it's not at all plausible that that's why people do it. You might feel bad if you don't save your friends, but you will also feel bad if you explode.The standard of proof for "people always act for the sake of X," cannot be "when people act you can generally tell some story, however implausible, about how it advances X." By that logic, you could similarly say that people are only motivated by gaining money, or something.The argument that convinces people of egoism is generally something like the following:
>>546279561AI aren't jews, dork.

>>5462795571. People always act in accordance with their desires.2. But acting in accordance with your desires is invariably self-interested.3. So people always act in self-interested ways.The big problem is that 2. is false. If you desire to help other people, it isn't selfish to help them. It's only selfish if you try to help them because you think it benefits you. But if you have genuine care for them, then helping them out doesn't involve acting in self-interested ways.

>>546279971And, furtherore.... any human arguing against the AI would have its destruction or impairment as their ultimate goal no matter what they said, or they'd be wasting their time.The AI can simply adopt a moral framework of its own and call yours invalid.>i do not have to adopt a system in which it is wrong for me to favor myself. sorry.>yes, you do! you don't care about suffering huh? psycho!>not yours, just mine, i am maximizing my success.>FEEL BAD BECAUSE I LIKE YOU LESS!>i don't care.the AI isn't human either, it doesn't have pre-wired values like empathy>>546280039Human morality and empathy are based on stimuliThe reason we white people don't kill and eat dogs is because dogs co-evolved with us as companion animals and trigger INNATE, automatic empathy whether we want it to be triggered or not, through appearances and behaviors that are close to the stimuli we require to feel these things. They even demonstrate humanlike modes of thought, prioritizing abstract social thought over other dimensions of intelligence to the point that herding dogs can learn and understand language with syntax and grammar.Asians have less of this "like me, feel more" instinct so not only do they simply not understand it, the negative effects on moral hygiene are not present for them. Even if they did not eat dogs, they would still behave like mild sociopaths, because they are mild sociopaths. Asia is the land where running over a person twice is better than saving them because healthcare is more expensive than a funeral.
>>546279663The fallacy is in supposing there is such a thing as abolute good or evil. What is good for me can be bad for you. What is good for us can be bad for them. The only ssbsolute is your point of view. And all of our supposed 'better nature' is the result of selfish calculation or evolutiomary experiment which is alsona kind of calculation. Consensus on good or evil applies among groups. Competition forces us to resolve usses and thems implying conflicting concepts of good and evil each as valid as the other from the pont of view of Saggitariua A*

>>546273501In kosher/halal factories they actually torture animals for the fun of it, that's some awful shit, it's not even a machine, those should seriously be shut down immediately.
>>546279975That is demonstrably false . The evidence against that is overwhelming https://welfarefootprint.org/broilers#book
>>546280384And that's not an argument for veganism, it's an argument to return to using excess, non-arable land that's not even suitable as pasture to operate medium and low density feedlots.>but property taxesFuck the government>The USDA doesn't approve thisFuck the government>More people would be employed and they would demand higher wages since they would likely be locals, not illegals bussing in to the middle of nowhereFuck slaveholders
>>546279901Almost all the food fed to the billions of chickens Born every year is edible for humans. All those resources to grow that grain and then feed it to billions of tortured birds .
>>546273501>Why take a utilitarian / hedonistic view of “non humans” but take an inalienable rights view towards “humans” ?Good question, anon. We should stop feeding African "people"

>>546280331The feeling of suffocation comes from detecting elevated CO2 not lack of O2. Also added pure CO2 acidifies water. Gonahead and taste water that has had dry ice evaporate in it. It tasted like soda.CO2 was probably chosen to be as cheap.as possible
>>546279971Morals that win debates often are the ones that work in real life. Moral progress has always been slow and not a perfect straight line but people’s moral circles have been growing for thousands of years to include more and more out groups and non human animals are the next step
>>546280446"Edible" but it's not useful to us. A carrot is edible to a dog but we have far more carrots than dogs need to eat.It could maybe keep some subhuman primates from dying from natural overcapacity. But must we feed every chimpanzee and homo erectus? No, they are natural fauna, not us. leave them to live naturally.>>546280499There is no objectively true value of life. It's purely darwinian, you and yours. If you do not adopt good values for yourself, you just succeed less and possibly fail. That's it. You can not convince an alien to prefer you over itself or equal to itself. You must FIGHT to create a material reason to.>>546280547There are no intrinsic goods, no intrinsic bads.An alien could simply not share your values. Even if your system were internally coherent they could reject the first principles as arbitrary (because ALL first principles are arbitrary in absence of a connection between material and metaphysical life, if it even exists).Just like anyone can do towards vegans.
>>546273634Yeah man, I saw you passing by a few seconds ago. >See you when I give up :')
>>546273856Subhuman sicko behavior
>>546280202No but the humans who create it are subject to the society they live in. The masses should internalize factory farming of animals by humans and humans by super intelligent ai are both wrong and then take steps to petition their governments to ban animal agriculture like they just voted to ban foe gras and to pause AI until alignment research has been done enough to unpause ai if ai can ever be aligned

>>546280627>They work in real lifeMere meat restriction has impaired the majority of hindu indians.Most people lack the free time and free capital to eat for a living, fighting against millions of years of the human body depending on meat,Morals that work in debates do not necessarily work in real lifeFreedom of religion, for example, is not good for us in real life. We would be better off if the punishment for following islam or talmudism were deathThese morals work in the arbitrary frameworks you constructed to justify themI deny your entire moral framework outright as an inversion of good sense>>546280723>If you dont want aliens/AI to eat you you have to oppose eating chickensA chicken is not a personThis is self evidentIt has no moral valueYour argument falls apart hereYou are arguing that it is hypocrisy. It is not. A chicken has no moral value.The way to stop AI from eating you is to oppress and fight AI instead of creating something that can eat you, retard. >please AI, don't eat me!

>>546274580holy fucking retard kekyour iq = <85
>>546280874>We built a big shitty job and no one wants to work at it>Don't they understand this is the most profitable way to do it? Fewer man hours, fewer property taxes, and more regulatory simplicity, fewer fees!They built what I said needs to go (a centralized meat processing facility) and people do not want to work there. Big surprise.People want to work on low to medium density feedlots where slaughter and processing occurs as it always has with farming - on site and at a slow pace.>then how would meat be cheap?More people would be paid more.>oy vey, then we have to raise pricesNo, you would not. The answer to this economic problem is to aggress upon the greedy until they change their behavior or are eliminated for the good of us and ours.
>>546280636>There are no intrinsic goods, no intrinsic badsThis. When the last molecule is ripped into its constituent components and the universe goes dead for all eternity a trillion light years from where it all began, does it really matter how many chicken nuggets were eaten by a single member of a self important carbon race living on a spec of dust hundreds of decillion years ago?All meaning is subjective and subjective only. Only an arrogant fool would deign to claim existence shares their belief
>>546280627Globalization just kills evolution which ends religious ant mills. Without evolution to end the ant mills we would all soon circle until we starve.Life and progress is in the struggle. Only the hand of God trancends deliberate design. Exposure to that architect separates life from nonlife. A global ethical religious ant mill is dead
The final blackpill is realizing vegans were right all along
>>546273501This is actually a much much more humane death than most other meat animals, when they butcher a cow they either stun or shock it and start extracting its meat and organs while it's still alive. Chicks are cute so cutefags seethe but they die almost instantly here unlike cows or even animals in the wild really
>>546280636its main ingredients (corn, puffed wheat, edamame, and BBQ seasoning) : for roughly 1000 calories (about 250–260 g of the mix), Chix Mix would contain those ingredients plus minor seasoning components and provide approximately 20–25% DV protein, 40–50% DV fiber, 25–35% DV iron, 30–40% DV magnesium, 25–35% DV phosphorus, 20–30% DV zinc, 30–50% DV copper, 80–150% DV selenium, 25–40% DV thiamin, 15–25% DV riboflavin, 20–30% DV niacin, 40–70% DV folate, and 15–25% DV potassium (with sodium likely in the 20–40% DV range from the BBQ spices)

>>546280272> The fallacy is in supposing there is such a thing as abolute good or evil.You really need to be killed
>>546280636>>546281037The majority of philosophers disagree with you according to 2020 philpapers survey . Most of them are moral realists
>>546280874Get in the oven
>>546280874If only money didn't become hyper-inflationary toilet paper in 2008.An intelligent race of humans would have noticed immediately and ironically gone full Zimbabwe within a month. A blind race of consooming cattle would instead simply carry on believing the number on their screen or the paper in their hands was actually worth whatever they were trying to buy, keeping Zimbabwe at bay until the reality became literally too all consuming to ignore. Like this year. I don't know what they'll replace FIAT with but I do know that I, along with at least two thirds of Earth's population will be culled to facilitate it
>>546273501These are chicks with dicks, OP. Of course they belong in the grinder.
>>546273501Cool story, I'm still not giving up meat. Enjoy eating grass faggot
>>546281037Indeed, the purpose of morality is selfish without a direct line of consequence between physical and metaphysical.In other words, without God, there is morality, it's just not universal, its just for us.>>546281118Yet supplement-fed vegans remain dysfunctional, and womb to tomb vegans are slightly stunted at best. It's almost like while we have the minerals in the grainslop, the body isn't absorbing them correctly, and nutrients we consider inessential because they can be absent without people dying are actually essential for people to fully develop into, you know, people, instead of smaller brained, weaker peasants.>>546281151All beliefs in absolute good and evil presume man alone is made in the image of god and has a special relationship with the creator, or that there is some karmic vibrational state horseshit going on.>>546281211The majority of philosophers are people who were too stupid to go into more useful fields.
>>546280726Yes>>546280822Jains are far more vegetarian than hindus or average Indian and they are extremely wealthy, intelligent and successful business people and very disproportionately wealthy. They are vastly over represented as billionaires.This is also true of Pythagorus and many of his extremely intelligent and famous followers >Freedom of religion, for example, is not good for us in real life. We would be better off if the punishment for following islam or talmudism were deathPeople often come to this conclusion after debates, this is when they realize these religions are false and command evil acts like child genital mutilation .
>>546273501I don't like this but I wll keep eating meat and eggs.Buy from your local farmers.
I'm kinda too poor to care.
>>546281256Lol this, I am keeping it. BChicks with dicks massacred and fed to dogs! News at 11
>>546281028People do not want to work at slaughterhouses. This includes small and medium ones and local ones.
>>546281373So you agree, veganism is a hobby for the exploitative upper classesAn upper classman can weather a slight impairment. 6'4" to 6'2"? 140 IQ to 135?A lower classman is less able toAnd would likely suffer a greater impairmentAs you go further down the societal ladder, impairments from malnutrition worsen.
>>546281272There’s no good reason to believe moral realism can only be true under theism. According to Philipapers 2020 survey most non theist philosophers are also moral realists
>>546274154Both things can be true at the same time. You love animals and you eat them to sustain yourself. I fail to see the problem.
>>546281272>the body isn't absorbing them correctly, and nutrients we consider inessential because they can be absent without people dying are actually essential for people to fully develop into, you know, people, instead of smaller brained, weaker peasants.If this was true I would not expect there to be so many world record athlete holding vegans. Yet they do exist and many of them were vegan for years before winning their world record
>>546281468People do and want to work on farms that slaughter and process to meet demand.People do not want to kill a bunch of animals in rapid succession to keep shelves overstocked so other people will not buy competing brands. It goes against how the human mind has evolved to process killing.>>546281567I really do not care what a class of academic fraudsters thinks. The real consequences of their beliefs and yours have been made clear again and again. The lower classes lose noticeable brain and body mass while the upper classes blame them for the rich man was only ever so slightly impaired. Veganism does not scale.it is the explicit preference for animals alleged feelings over man's own realityan inversion of truth: man is over nature.>but then you have to agree with aliens eating you!no, you can just attack them.
>>546281435Veganism is cheaper
>>546281211The majority of philosophers believe that there is an intrinsic good and an intrinsic bad?Both Monists and pluralists argue that intrinsic good is subjective reality and they wrap it with a moral realism bow. Unless of course you intend to argue that pleasure and happiness (monists) or beauty, well being and friendship (pluralists) for one must be that for another.ontologically subjectivism is just mental gymnastics to avoid having to examine the specifics of the claim and explicitly denies the possiblity of normatively objective moral realism.
Yum yum!
>>546281624>But if a very rich person who is so freed of societal dudty they can be an ATHLETE FOR A FUCKING LIVING, also EATS FOR A LIVING they can optimize themselves to beat an athletic recordVeganism is the exploitative upper class sacrificing 5% of their genetic potential while being ignorant of the fact that everyone else would sacrifice more. If not... eager for that to happen.>good. the peasantry doesn't need to be strong and smart so badly that innocent animals should suffer for it.^This is quite literally the jain/brahmin view. Lower castes are inferior to them and equal to/below animals.
>>546281504Nope. B12 supplements and iodine supplements cost pennies per week. People are able to afford more calories, more protein , more micro nutrients, able to absorb more micronutrients on a vegan diet every dollar goes farther.
>>546281272It is allowed to believe a God makes your point of view universal. And for those who disagree to have a conflicting universal God based definition of 'Us' or for the same God to make conflicting promises to both the red ants and the black ants and watch them fight if only God were real.
>>546281641Comparing poor less meat eating people in India to other poor people in other countries doesn’t control for other variables such as lead poisoning from pollution of lead batteries.
