- TaylorAlexander 6y agoHi could you please add "NSFW" to that? I am a vegan and these images are very disturbing to me. I mean, I saw someone said it was a deer so I very quickly clicked to confirm I should post this - I am mostly saying this for others and so people are aware this can be disturbing to some. Thank you. EDIT: Wow I kindly say something is disturbing to me and y'all respond with down votes. Thanks for the compassion.
- zmarty 6y agoReminds me of the joke: How can you tell is somebody is a vegan?
- ben0x539 6y agoI eat meat and I'd also have appreciated a description of the contents before clicking the link.
- peterstensmyr 6y agoTheir coworkers will tell you.
- mssundaram 6y agoHow can you tell if someone cares if someone else is vegan? They'll tell this joke
- MichaelApproved 6y agoThey’ll have a respect for life that few people share? Heh Btw, this is coming from a carnivore who recognizes his flaws.
- dstick 6y agoMaybe NSFV would be more helpful?
- w-m 6y agoThe comment is too old, I can no longer edit it. I’m sorry that you were disturbed. I did not feel it needed a warning label when posting, as the video shows neither cruelty, nor did I consider it particularly gory. But I guess I could have erred on the side of caution and included a short description as not to catch anyone off guard. Then again, that’s part of what fascinated me about the video and made me post it.. For late readers who are deciding on whether to watch it: the video shows somebody butchering some deer meat, and the deer carcass is shortly seen hanging in the background.
- TaylorAlexander 6y agoThank you for the kind reply. I do understand that a skinned animal may not appear gory to many people, but it’s definitely gory to me!
- mssundaram 6y agoThank you for the warning. I am vegan too!
- TaylorAlexander 6y ago<3
- subungual 6y agoRight there with you. Didn't sign up to watch a video of someone mutilating a corpse, and I didn't read your comment until it was too late. A content warning in general would be nice for these situations, as I'd probably click on "NSFW." May be a while before this catches on, unfortunately.
- AndrewUnmuted 6y ago> someone mutilating a corpse Those words may technically be accurate, but I don't think that's a very fair representation of what's going on in the video. It may be worth considering how ordinary and unremarkable such a sight is to all the world's humans. Even in the first world, a stroll down Chinatown of any major city is bound to result in seeing some "carcasses" hanging upside down from the ceiling. Some may object to the idea of labeling the customs of such a huge swath of the global population as something which demands a warning.
- TaylorAlexander 6y ago> a stroll down Chinatown of any major city Walking down the street in Chinatown I may not be too surprised to see a hanging animal carcass, but this is Hacker News not a street market. > unremarkable such a sight is to all the world's humans Vegetarianism is pretty common in the world, with for example 30% of India being vegetarian[1]. So be careful not to project your own thoughts on to "all the worlds humans".

- Dylan16807 6y ago30% of a population being vegetarian sounds like it would barely impact your chance of seeing meat or a carcass at the market.
- subungual 6y agoThis is why I said it may take a while to catch on. Morality and norms are dynamic things. Raising animals for the sole purpose of butchering them is an incredibly inefficient way to feed people. Once we move beyond it, I have little doubt peoples' feelings about the practice will change quickly, as they have with other historically brutal practices.
- hycaria 6y agoMaybe because it has nothing to do with being vegan ? Some people are grossed out by carcasses while eating meat. And I used to cut animals open for work, during a time where I was strictly vegetarian.
