>We no longer enslave animals for food purposes. You've seen something as fresh and tasty as meat, but inorganically materialized, out of patterns used by our transporters.
>>222772815>teleports your meat, killing it and making a copy
>>222772815Why not just teleport nutrient matter into my stomach so I don't have to eat and then beam it out of my colon so I don't have to shit? Piss too
>>222772843lol
>>222772815that could be true but the way morality works in societies like this, developing the transporter required systematically ass-raping every person on earth...then after everyone's mind broken and ass bleeding future generations can brag about how great the transporter is over their morning nutrient paste
>>222772815Not this time.It's fiction. We made it up.
I can see future generations looking down on us for factory farming.
Chinks are right and the suffering makes it taste better
>>222772815>>We no longer enslave animals for food purposes therefore I have no idea what the real thing tastes like but I assure you you're eating something as fresh and tasty as meat.
>>222772815That's how they came up with the second Will Riker. They made a clone for consumption, and it accidentally got stranded on the planet.
>>222774108We'll look like monsters to people in the future that are mostly eating lab grown meat
>>222772874Because people like eating and the Federation are hypocrites. If they where honest, they'd be the Borg.
>>222774381true
>>222774381perhaps neoredditors will think that.most people will think we were rad
>>222774568No there’s no argument for it except that bacon cheese burgers are tasty and I don’t think people living in cloud cities on Venus will appreciate that
>>222774388>have to work 50 hours a week to purchase my nutrients and pay for my cave and my fireHow I'm not a borg right now
>>222774173If you knew anything about animals you would know this is not true, and in fact stressed animals make them taste like shit
>>222774601They'll be sitting in their roach motel apartment complexes packed with wall-to-wall third worlders and thinking>damn I wonder what real food tasted like
>>222774731There won’t even be a billion humans in a few hundred years so that’s unlikely
>>222774827I suppose the only consolation there is that the unwashed retard masses they're keen to replace everyone with won't be smart enough to work out how to make lab-grown food let alone wash their hands, so whoever inherits the earth will be stuck eating the same rotten slop they eat on a daily basis.
>>222774863You’re ignoring genetic enhancement
>>222774108Its gonna be like the hate for Ai.>freshsly made by humans, not replicators!
>>222772815Easy on the cruelty-free meat, Will.
>>222772815Riker is relentlessly handsome.
>>222774108or we will take factory farming to the stars and there will be trillions of a animals being slaughtered every day on hundreds of worlds. and no one will care, not really, except a handful of annoying limp-wristed vegans.
>>222775634he looks better with the beard imo.
>>222775680I like Ensign Babyface.
>>222775668You realise you can eat meat and still oppose factory farming?
>>222772815>You've seen something as fresh and tasty as meat, but inorganically materialized, out of poop used by our transporters
>>222775730sure, but its somewhat hypocritical.my point is not "factory farming is ok" its that people have already shown they dont give a fuck. factory farming has been exposed and documented and people just dont care. the problem is too large and too remote for them to care. hell, its even a culture war item now, with chuds showing how trad they are by advocating for the mass slaughter of animals kept in torturous conditions.
>>222774108They should be looking down on shechita but they won't because "muh anti semitism".
>>222775730Factory farming is OK. Fuck cows, and fuck you.
>>222775784Absolutely obsessed
>>222775793no its really bad. we shouldn't be torturing animals just so we can afford to eat meat every day. and it is torture, make no mistake, though cows overall tend to come out better. dairy cows though are subjected to horrors.
>>222775774Yeah which is why they will look down on us for condoning it for no other reason than it was convenient. You have lower lifeforms like >>222775793 who eat meat for no other reason than they’re a manlet or something and need to affirm their masculinity by eating burgers and shit.
>>222775857The other guy is a cringelord tryhard but boy are you lost in the sauce too.
>>222775857>>222775847>>222775877>*chews grocery store steak*
>>222775857i think you have too much faith in future humanity.the only hope is>lab grown meat becomes cheaper per pound of flesh produced than factory farming >it does not remain a hot button culture war issue where half the country bans it reflexively to own the libsand even then you have to dismantle factory farming and the powerful lobbying industry that perpetuates it. the moneyed interests are not going quietly into that good night.
>>222775888I also eat grocery store steak. Do you actually understand what is being discussed?
>>222775916Not really. The global population will crash alongside massive advancements in lab grown meat. Factory farming won’t survive under such conditions and there will be a readjustment. In hundreds of years they will look back on how we treated animals with disgust.
>>222772815I only eat meat cubes in my meat cubicle
>>222775917Next time you see blatant troll posts, try to resist the urge to respond.
>>222775917Yes, I just think your grandstanding is funny. You'll always be faggots everywhere.>*drinks grocery store milk*
>>222775952good advice
>>222775940This won't happen.You'll be on your deathbed as cows are still mass-slaughtered and forced to be milked for human convenience.
>>222776005unfortunately i think this is right but i really hope lab grown meat wins!
>>222776019Well, again, a matter of convenience. For lab grown meat you'd need a lab.For real meat you just need two cows and a field.Mass breeding cows and killing them is easier.
>>222775940Do you look back on cavemen with disgust for beating animals to death with clubs in order to survive?I'd be fine with lab grown meat, assuming it has the same nutritional content, similar taste and texture but I don't see it becoming cost effective in our lifetime. I could see them deliberately and artificially increasing the price of meat though which might balance out and make it a more appealing choice.
>>222776005Yeah I’m talking hundreds of years in the future you absolute retarded
>>222776052Awfully optimistic of you to assume the world will be anything like it is now or that there will even still be humans alive hundreds of years in the future with how things have been going.
>>222775952His troll is based on a premise that isn’t being discussed, because he’s too retarded to comprehend what is being discussed. In a civilised white society you expect interlocutors to be able to understand your basic premise rather than defaulting to factory vegan debate settings.
>>222776047only a small portion of humanity eats meat like the west does; namely, westerners.if the rest of the planet tries to emulate that, it will almost certainly drive up the cost of meat. meat is already too goddamn expensive. a pound of lean is like $9 now its out of control.
>>222776047We look back on things like slavery with disgust, so yeah>>222776064Right I should’ve considered that humanity could go extinct rather than operating under the assumption that it wouldn’t, thanks for your insight.
>>222776067which is why you ignore it instead of giving them the attention they crave, encouraging them to keep doing it
>>222776095>We look back on things like slavery with disgust, so yeahThat's not what I asked. You look back on cavemen for subsisting off animal flesh because of slavery? What's the logical connection?Stick to the point next time.
>>222776086>only a small portion of humanity eats meat like the west doesdon't respond to me again with your disingenuous dumbass takes
>>222776095You're welcome.
>>222776126buddy do you think indians are actually eating ham and burgers every day? look at how fucking malnourished they are.most of the world eats predominantly plants with meat being an uncommon thing; the west inverts this rule.
>>222776112Because going back to a time before agriculture and basic urban societies is self-evidently retarded so I changed the example to slavery, because that came about due to labour conditions, and you could make the argument that it was a necessary bearing of the time, but nevertheless we still look down upon with disgust. Similarly, factory farming makes meats and the nutrition from it more widely available. Doesn’t mean people won’t look down on it in the future.
>>222776161Everything in your post is wrong.Please don't respond to me again.Dumbass.
>>222776179remain ignoranti am the smartest person on 4chan btw
>>222776164>Because going back to a time before agriculture and basic urban societies is self-evidently retardedBecause it illustrates how retarded your "point" was? That was the only logical example as any period after that involves animal husbandry which is the precise thing you're denigrating.
>>222776047>Do you look back on cavemen with disgust for beating animals to death with clubs in order to survive?Not nearly as much as one should look on factory farming with disgust.Why try to point to cavemen for your own wildly unrelated actions?When was the last time you killed something with a club for food?
>>222776182No, that is me. You are the ingorant one.I direct you to the attached illustration for further exposition.
>>222776210I swatted a fly with one of those electric tennis rackets and put it in a spider's web.Next question.
>>222776047Well no because caveman didn't cruelly beat them to death because that's a waste of calories so they killed them as efficiently as possible to save the energy because if you burn needless you die. Then at some point they realized meat taste like shit when the animal was all stressed and adrenaline dumped out too kek
>>222776224based. at my old house when I was younger I use to catch roaches and toss them into spider webs so they can chow down. Then I realized centipedes like them too so I would bring it to where they were hiding.
>>222774388How I await that blessed ascension
>>222776226>caveman didn't cruelly beat them to death because that's a waste of calories so they killed them as efficiently as possible to save the energyIt was a better time.
>>222776305Yes, also animals do this too. Every creature like bears and shit all do a risk v reward + energy calc to determine if a kill is 'worth' it. So yeah early humans would've definitely been on that thang if if animals were too
>>222776047>Meat gets artificially priced too high for the average person>People start buying unregulated black market mystery meat for cheaper prices
>>222774108No, they will laugh at us for not eradicating halal and kosher slaughter. Barbaric subhumans
