    People wouldn’t care nearly as much if he said this while standing over a pond full of fish, but since they’re cute, fuzzy lambs, it’s Crossing The Line.

      If you’re okay with eating meat, you should also be okay with how it gets to your plate. Seems only fair.

            cows don’t seem very communicative whether they’re in a pasture or a patty.

              Then you’re not listening very well. You can understand a lot from a cow, both in the pasture and from the patty.

                this outlandish claim came with no evidence, and will be dismissed with the same amount of evidence.

                  Ok. I will take your poor communication claim that has no evidence and dismiss it.

          Grew up on a farm. Most of our meat, except pork, was home grown.

          Named, raised, and loved what was on my plate. Helped butcher plenty of it myself. Fucking delicious

              You should know how it happens.

              • I know, still eat.

              You should do it manually.

              • I did, still eat.

              Y-You monster!

              Yeah, this Internet world is making the global society way more apathetic than before, people don’t give a flying fuck about the people living in the building next to theirs, you think they will care about corpse parts of animals they didn’t even know? Nah.

        I’ll happily go on a mass murder of animals if I can continue eating meat.

      To be fair, fish brains are much further removed than other mammals.

      Mammals have memories and can love. They have opinions and personalities.

      The distinction that I would better is how up in arms some people get at the idea of eating dogs or cats but other mammals are perfectly fine.

        Fish definitely have memories. They definitely learn who feeds them. Ask any observant aquarium owner.

        Fish usually have opinions and personalities. Not sure about love, though.

      I mean, yeah… Lambs are baby animals. Of course they are fluffy and cute.

      Id feel pretty weird eating cute, baby animals, so I don’t. I do get why people don’t like this situation. It feels like people are being obtuse in this thread pretending to be flummoxed by all this.
