Interesting concept. At first glance a noble mission.
Nevertheless, this is yet another rationalization for something horrible. When you think about sentient animals that enjoy entertainment, feel boredom, get aggressive when confined, and have a desire to be intellectually stimulated, you realize what an unbelievably sick circumstance this really is.
- LaGrange 15y agoActually, if I got to play with a specific pig several times, got attached to it a bit, and then the pig would disappear... I don't think I'd eat bacon again. Then again, I'm feeling guilty every time I eat meat as it is.
- its_so_on 15y agotechnically (as in, in actual reality), you are guilty every time you eat meat. Note that I don't feel that way personally, and eat meat all the time, I don't entertain two thoughts about this, any more than I feel guilty about slave-driving Apple's suppliers' employees to meet Apple's excruciating demands for components, all fueled by my purchase and demand, and the purchases and demands of millions like me, but, there's reality for you. In actual reality, we are guilty. That doesn't mean you should feel guilty though. www.google.com/search?q=factory+farming www.google.com/search?q=foxconn+labor+conditions
- bh42222 15y agoI genuinely do feel bad about slave-driving Apple's suppliers' employees enough to not own any Apple hardware. Or any hardware linked to foxconn. But I don't feel the least bad about eating organic meat. As long as animals live a mostly stress and pain free life, I have no problem with using them as food.
