Been vegan for about a year and a half now, and I just can't morally justify choosing to eat meat when there is an abundance of other options available. Should I just continue the way I am? Or am I being a faggot?

you're a retarded loser if you think that avoiding meat does anything to stop the industry. keep avoiding most meat because the animals are fed with poison and the meat is washed with poison

also, try grass fed veal

youre giving yourself lower testosterone by not eating meat.

youre increasing your estrogen with all the soy products you likely eat.

you evolved to eat meat, thats why you have canines and the ability to digest it. youre spitting in the face of millions of years of evolution.

Wrong. Post source.

Soy has PHYTOestrogens, beef has MAMMALIAN estrogen. Guess which is worse for humans, who are mammals btw.
>you evolved to eat meat, thats why you have canines and the ability to digest it.
Humans are biological herbivores and opportunistic omnivores. Humans evolved from tree dwelling frugivores, hence the opposable thumbs and front looking eyes (most herbivores have eyes to the side to look for predators, we have eyes in front for branches and shit to latch on to). Everything points to us being herbivores: our intestinal tract length/torso length ratio, our "claws", our teeth, our increased blood cholesterol after consuming high cholesterol or high saturated fat foods (unlike dogs, ever heard anyone take their Labrador to the vet for a heart attack?), all of these scream at us being herbivores. We simply evolved to "tolerate" meat because food was scarce in the winter

its really cool that you're changing your lifestyle just because you can't stand eating dead animals, but i also think its pretty dumb, they are literally bred for feeding us, people tend to humanize animals too much, people expect animals to act and behave like humans, but guess what? they are animals, they will always act like animals
>>
In one billion years, literally nothing you nor any one of us does will have any meaning to anything in the universe.

When all humans are either spread across space, or more likely all dead, your actions will mean literally nothing. Your morals mean nothing. When everyone is dead, and nobody exists to measure anything, a timescale of billions of years is as long as 0 i dunno fuck you meat tastes good tho

Spring traps also react to external stimuli, that doesn't mean that they feel pain

Even if I agree that eating plants causes them suffering, eating animals causes 10x times plants to suffer compared to eating the same calories in plants.

>morally

maybe start by only eating what you kill. Go fishing, eat the fish you catch. If you're ok with that, go out and kill a deer or wild boar and freeze the meat. Maybe if you put yourself back in the food chain instead of buying meat that has already been killed for you, you will understand that there is nothing morally wrong with eating other animals. The problem with eating meat is when people over consume it. Meat makes up about 15% of my diet. 20% if you include eggs. I don't kill everything I eat, but I do shoot a moose every autumn, and it lasts me the better part of a year.

You honestly seem way more in touch with reality compared to most meat eaters. I can tell because most meat eaters haven't thought about what we do to animals or flat out don't care. You do care, and have developed a coping mechanism where you have convinced yourself that their pain and their suffering are somehow disconnected. You are good deep down, you'll change the error in your ways sooner or later.

The reason people don't respect vegans is because they try to force their lifestyle on others. They act no differently than muslims trying to force sharia law on non-muslims, or christians telling homosexuals they will go to hell unless they change their lifestyles. Stop trying to force your beliefs onto others who do not share your beliefs.

I don't kill for the fun of it. It's my least favorite part. I love my hunting trips, because they are a 10 day long camping trip in November. I don't enjoy the actual shooting. I also never fish for sport. I won't fish in a lake or river that only has fish I do not want to eat. I love being out in nature, but I don't go out there with the intent to eat everything I see. I take a moose because it's big and one animal can feed my family for about 70% of the year. I will never really understand people who like to kill animals, but if I'm going to eat them, I feel I should at least be willing to do the job myself.
>>
>>41719533

You literally entered a thread where a vegan asked people to convince him to eat meat again and try to convince him to stay vegan and are saying I'm forcing my beliefs on him. This is why people don't listen to vegans.

>>41719511
>You mean they discuss certain topics that make you uncomfortable because your position on them is inexcusable.
no, they think that their lifestyle is the right one, and it isn't. thats why vegans as such assholes, the only vegan i know that isn't an asshole is my roomate, we chill all the time, go out to eat, he orders vegan food, i order meet, and the only time he ever talked about his "lifestyle" was when he asked me if i've never thought about being vegan and thats it, he doesn't bitch about everything and everyone that isn't a vegan
>>
>>41718901
Well lets face it
If you are well disciplined vegan you live a healthier life then the ordinary meateater..that includes eating a lot of veggies beans and peas and shit not some soy crap. And yes thats a fact...and no Im not vegan Im not even vegetarien...but a well balanced vegan diet is just complicated and boring... I never understood why somebody would limit themself whith such things. I mean if you are bodybuilder you limit yourself more than enough why would you purposly decline delicious meat just because of the animals?
I eat meat because its a cheap tasty easy way of protein.
If you dont eat meat for health reasons...well fair enough...if you fell sorry for the animals well then dont eat discount meat.

If you’re thinking morally, then you need to assert the premises that led you to veganism.

Typically, the argument I hear is this:
>Animals suffer when they are kept, domesticated, and slaughtered for human consumption
>It is wrong for animals to suffer
>I am also an animal, and my pleasure and survival is not a higher priority than any other living being
>Because of modern nutritional knowledge and science and and abundance of resources, I can sustain myself without consuming animal products
>therefore, there is no justification for human consumption of animals in first-world nations.

Is this your chain of reasoning?

The second and third points are the ones that I believe are wrong. But the third is more important.

Firstly, vegans are happy to consume plants, which are also living creatures.
In doing so, they have established that animals are superior to plants, because they acknowledge the animals’ right, but not the plants’.
Therefore, they accept that there is some quality to an animal that elevates it above a plant.
They do not extend this same thinking to humans. The faculty of reason puts a person above a pig, just as a pig is above a blade of grass.

Thusly, humans ARE elevated above the non-rational animals, and we have a natural supremacy over them.

Morality is subjective
If being vegan makes you happy then go for it
But don't be spooked out of happiness

i don't believe stabbing animals in the neck is right, but i do believe that breeding animals and eating them is, i'm not killing every animal, i'm eating animals that were bred to die and to feed, i do tried to be vegan for couple months but maybe i'm a bad vegan but its too much work for me, cooking is a bitch, i was eating so fucking much to get my 200g of protein, i basically drinked tea and water because whenever i went i couldn't get a smoothie

it's a pretty easy decision
"do I walk down aisle 5 and get veggie patties, or down aisle 4 and get animal carcass"

So says the vegan.

Being above animals justifies eating them, because they taste good. Just because our species was so good at being better than other animals that members of it created a system in which we didn't have to hunt in order to consume them doesn't mean eating them is reprehensible.

nothing proved with cancer
and diabetes is caused by too much sugary and fatty foods, but obese people tend to eat literally everything that is unhealthy, by blaming meat for this problem will only make retarded fat people more fat and retarded

I wish that were true. the most hardXcore vegans I know eat like shit, and I know because I eat about 90-95% vegan - maybe a thin layer of butter or cheese, or a few slices of salami on a sandwich loaded with grains and veggies

(below is for the non-trolls ITT who care about fitness over politics)

you should be eating for about 90-95% of your your food only
>whole grains
>fresh produce
>legumes
>also, mushrooms (learn to like them, pussies)

that's what makes you healthy. the fact that you should have few animal products is a function of evolution - Homo sapiens has evolved to eat the below for almost 200,000 years, and our primate relatives have laid the groundwork for even longer

no wonder McDonald's makes you shit funny - nobody before the 20th century had ever been able to cram that much fat and salt into their mouth at once

If you're trying to grow, or just want to keep your cholesterol levels healthy, you should continue to consume milk from time to time as an adult. Products labeled as "almond milk" or "soy milk" are false advertising. Milk is only produced by female mammals. Almond "milk" is overpriced water with virtually no health benefits.

Most diets are vitamin-A deficit, and the best source of vitamin-A is animal source, especially organ meat. Not eating enough vitamin-A causes eye ulcers.

Studies show that up to 83% of vegans are deficient in B12. Their vitamin D levels are also 74% lower, and Omega-3 levels 53-59% lower, compared to omnivores.

btw, half of a small carrot gives up 200% of your rda for vitamin A, your own skin produce vitamin D when in contact w the sun. B-12 is needed to be supplemented, why omnivores don't need B12 supplements? it's because the animals you eat are fed w b12 supplements ;).
The issues w omega 3 it's because most of the vegans are stupid, they listened to gurus that no longer ago were saying that fat make you fat and all that bullshit. 8g of flax seeds gives up 100% of your rda of omega 3, there's no need to eat fish fat.

Because it's nothing but sodium. Milk, or as you call it "regular milk", wins on having more saturated fat and protein per calorie.

so, just going to put it out there that agriculture in general is causing algae blooms and destroying a lot of fresh water sources in North America and likely Europe. If you think that you are for some reason doing the world a favour by eating plants over meat, you're delusional.

You're right, we're not technically on the food chain. Any hunter that claims to be entering the foodchain is a delusional faggot who is trying to justify the killing of wild animals that he's likely never going to eat.

However, I for one am glad people are going vegan, because at least then maybe the price of meat will go down after having spiked by 20% this past quarter.

Coconut fat raises LDL cholesterol moreso than unsaturated fats, not as much as butter since not all of its saturated fats are the long-chain variety

You're on the right track. I have an excellent idea: Go vegan, but eat two big fat juicy steaks every weekend. That means, substitute chicken and rice for lentils, chicken stir fry with seitan stir fry, dairy BnJ with vegan BnJ, cow milk with soy milk, scrambled eggs with scrambled tofu etc. That way, you create a net benefit to animal welfare, the planet and your health, while not associating yourself with that cult you hate and not missing out on that succulent juicy steak. How about that? Isn't it the greatest idea ever?

People live, people die, animals live and die. if you're so concerned with animal wellness just buy from trusted sources (like my family has done for the past 25 years, from local certified farms), but fucking hell you don't need to go around scoffing at people from a soapbox pedestal because they make choices different from yours.

Yes.

Just as Nietzsche's cucking of Ree drove Ree to kill himself. Nietzsche was a celebrated philosopher who taught that the morality of good & evil is for slaves, while masters only care of beneficial vs unhealthy or disadvantageous. Ree taught that altruistic morality was universal. No one liked him. The only person who reviewed his opus was Nietzsche who said is was the most worthless thing he ever read. Ree was in love with a woman named Salome, whom Nietzsche regularly fucked in front of Ree. Scholars believe Ree killed himself by walking off a cliff, but no one is certain because he literally had no friends.

And yes, his name was "reeeeeeeee". He was a real life Wojak, while Nietzsche was a real-life Pepe. Ree was also a vegan, and was suspected to have died a virgin and had repressed homosexuality.

I got at least 2 sentences into your gay post and i realised how much of an absolute attention whore you are, therefore I only read the rest of that post only to gather information to pop the little bubble where you encase the world where complete strangers over the internet would care about whether or whether not you eat meat.

Secondly, there have been NUMEROUS studies that show that being a vegan is unhealthy, but because I am (as my name implies) Anonymous, to you I could e some health guru while in real life and to my family and friends I am a cocksucking faggot that got ultraids for sucking dick for $5, therfore I have no place to try and command you for your desicion to kill yourself off

Third of all:

if you seek validation from a bunch of strangers from an Underwater Goat Fur Weaving imageboard, then rethink your life. But since I HAVE NO VALIDATION TO DICTATE YOUR LIFE NOR DO YOU MINE, I have kindly redirected you to /soc/, where all the attention whores go to jerk each other off.

I'm sure your wondering why I pointed out how I have no validation to try and change your mind, and that is from the simple fact that I want to make sure you know you and your kind are the scum of this board (not because of your lifestyle, but because you guys always make shitty threads about how sooooooooo amazing your life is because you LARP as a Brontosaurus), but I want you to know that from here on out no person, whether newfag or originalfag, will EVER respond to your threads again.

Here's how you justify it, do you like meat? Yes? Good. Do you honestly think daily about whether the meat you consume has been tortured? Yes? you may have issues.

Quite honestly, of course if you think about "oh no the factory farms" all the time, watch horror videos of the worst factories out there, and think "ouch i wouldn't want that to happen to me". Of course then you're going to be turned off of a steak, but fucking honestly, I don't let it get to me, and i sure as fuck don't spend any large portion of my day to think about it.

Been vegan for about 2-3 weeks, feeling good, getting leaner since it's so hard to get fat on fibre rich foods.

The only problem I have being the terrible gas and bowel movements, I literally cannot handle beans or even lentils, they destroy my tummy.

Not sure what to substitute beans with desu, they are the most protein rich vegan food besides meat substitutes and soy.

No gymnastics there at all, i'm not bothered by it because it's not an issue to me. I don't think about it because there's more productive, more important things to think about.

I'll admit my "argument" is poorly comprised, and honestly, i'm not interested in going through fucking loops with what comes down to a choice based on opinion and perspective.

As far as i'm concerned, the only issue i have with factory farming is the quantity we're producing being too much. Couldn't give less of a fuck about how they're killed in most cases, and the small pens to me, just seem efficient in terms of production and storage.

You don't need an argument to avoid being vegan, just say that you don't care enough about the wellbeing of the animals in the animal agriculture to change your diet, it's that simple, no need to sugar coat it, it doesn't make you a bad person, but a lot of people specially "intellectuals" try to pussy foot around this and avoid saying this for the sake of their own ego.

I lived more than 20 years eating meat, I don't judge people completely and solely on their diet.

to state for clarity, the perception and opinion is about the value of animal life in regards to human life ease and comfort.

I personally don't value pigs bred for slaughter any more than i value wheat grown on a farm. It's there, it's useful and easy to access, it's tasty and I couldn't give a fuck about the harvest.

nah that animal is a someone, its certaintly not a thing, like a chair. If you fail to see that then that is evidence of psychopathic indoctrination.

>>
>>41726281
>needlessly stabbing animals
Eating them is the purpose. I'm not going around killing things with no function, rhyme or reason. I'm eating the fucking thing.

And you're conflating killing an animal like a pig or cow to killing a man. They're not the same. I don't give a fuck if you personally think i'm a pussy, in my eyes, you're a cunt. It makes no difference in my life.
>>
>>41726287
you're arguing that the right of the animal to live > human property rights

i know how you came to this conclusion but it's far more immoral for you to stop an individual from exercising his free will upon his property than it is for a human to kill an animal that's in his possession.

you might have credit in arguing that doing so is wasteful or unethical but that still doesn't revoke the rights of people to have complete ownership of their property.

Again, conflating people with animals. Of course in a civil society i'd be arrested if i fucking killed a person. They're not comparable circumstances.

Pigs, cows, dogs, cats, insects, etc. They're not humans, They're not under the same laws or protections we are. They're not the same as us. They're not people. They're sentient and the question of eating sentient life is one that's all on perspective.

>>41726296
i never said killing a pig and a man is the same. Name the trait absent in a pig that if absent in a man would make you see it as justification to kill the man. until then you are hyocritical.

sentient life is not property, unless you hold the same position about human slavery. A black man was a white mans property and thats fine because the it just is.

Your line of reasoning justifies human slavery and your logic is based on the beg the question fallacy.

killing one animal and another is comparable. You seem to be getting confused sweetheart, i think you mean its not equatableLOL

"one trait", dude, there's miles of differences between people and pigs in terms of traits: Ability to hunt and assist in hunting, ability to create and conjure complex traps and mechanisms both in the mind and on paper, Meat amount differences (a cow always will yield more meat than a human), ability to communicate (Why would i kill something I can talk to?), the list can continue.

Quite honestly, i think it's absurd that you've literally said that a man and pig are the same, and then constantly try to change the scenario into one involving killing a person. What i'm saying is that pigs and humans aren't the same fundamentally, killing one is never going to be the same as killing the other due to this. Other than laws and basic cannibalistic principles, humans are more useful than pigs in terms of perpetuating specie survival, both in terms of homo sapiens life, but also animal/plant life (I'm aware we're also one of the biggest destruction factors as well). Pigs just don't have the same value of life in my eyes, than humans, simply put.

You misunderstood what he asked. He said name the trait that if true of a human would justify killing the human. If a human couldn't create complex traps, it'd be okay to kill him? If you could get a lot of meat off a human, he's fine to kill? If you couldn't communicate with a person, it woud give you justification to kill them?
>>
>>41726484
thats not what he said.
>>
>>41726437
You're right, equatable is the correct use. Killing a human is comparable to killing a pig, but only in action, not in consequence.

Honestly, traits like ability to communicate, abilities to assist in hunting, ability to think complex thoughts, demonstrating it and also conveying that knowledge to others is an invaluable trait we possess.

Animals, while not dumb, aren't to the degree where i'd equate them with humans. They're simple, and they follow the basic principles of strong eating weak. I agree that killing more than necessary is wrong, because it's a waste. But eating a pig, to me, is not wrong, it's not the same morally or emotionally as killing a human. Eating animals is a part of life, animals getting eaten is a part of life, it's a cycle, i'm more than happy to be a part of that cycle.
>>
>>41726503

> I agree that killing more than necessary is wrong, because it's a waste

And if none is necessary, killing an animal to eat it is wrong, yes?
>>
>>41726503
ok so killing a pig and killing a human isnt the same. What is your actual justification to kill a pig? And what trait absent in a pig, if absent in a human would make you think its ok to stab a human needlessly for food?

if a human lacked the ability to communicate, was physically disabled so could not assist in hunting, was a bit retarded and so had simpler cognition would it be ok to stab them? ofcourse not. So these traits fail. Try again.
>>
>>41726489
Do you have a condition? Vegetables are basically the key to good health and longevity. Maybe your gut bacteria isn't used to it yet, you should definitely continue eating them. When I started eating lots of beans and kale I had like 4+ shits a day too but now it's back to normal. No idea about seitan I live in the EU, I have a bio market around the corner that sells everything.

Thanks for the calm approach, i appreciate it. I understand now, my mistake, i'm distracted by videos and not taking the time to collect a coherent response.

But rather than dancing around the topic, i understand what you mean, it's a hard one to answer. I don't think personally I could eat a human. Simply because of the fact they're the same as me, it increases my empathetic response and the ability for them to communicate and convey complex thoughts and emotions further increases that empathetic response.

I can see why earlier i was called a "psychopath" in regards to being able to eat pig, and I can therefore see the empathy that i feel towards humans and not eating them, is the same you feel towards other animals, would i be right in believing that's the overall idea?
>>
>>41726516
I think, my justification for killing and consuming pigs comes down to ease, and the fact it's different from me. I don't possess empathy towards pigs, nor cows.
>>
>>41726523

Yeah, I have had some sort of pseudo diarhea for about 2 weeks now, it's kinda bad and it lasts basically the entire day, giving me a lot of foul gas and bloat.
Stools are very soft but not exactly liquid, it's still a pain to clean my ass everytime I go take a shit thou.

Does it ever get better?
I don't have a condition that I know of.
>>
>>41726488
children dont have complete human rights and are instead the temporary property of their parents. otherwise it would be acceptable to let children have sex and take drugs. however, due to their potential of becoming adults that understand how these rights work, they are to be given partial rights that protect them until they are old enough.

the mentally challenged are tricky and to talk about all retards as one group is stupid. if they can comprehend morals and rights, they possess them. if they're like you, then they have the same status as children XD
>>
>>41726574
That does sound weird, after 2 weeks it should have gotten a lot better already. For me it just was annoying for about a week and now it's maybe twice a day on average. Perhaps you are sensitive to a certain food you haven't really eaten before so now your body goes apeshit. If your stool is almost liquid there's something wrong in your gut, you're supposed to retain most of the water.
>>
>>41726552

>I can therefore see the empathy that i feel towards humans and not eating them, is the same you feel towards other animals, would i be right in believing that's the overall idea?

Basically, but not as strongly. Some people definitely feel it on that level, which is why you see protests and demonstrations and read about people who break into factory farms and take animals to rescue sanctuaries. To me, I've had pets and I generally like animals, and I respect them enough to not want to kill them even if I don't see a dog or a pig as being on the same level as another person. Of course I was only able to admit that after I had already stopped eating meat for health reasons. It's hard to say "yeah, killing and eating animals when other food options exist isn't the right thing to do" when doing that means you have to stop eating foods you like.
>>
I'm close to eating vegan, a little bit of dairy left in my diet and maybe meat on a birthday every few months, but I have no inherent problems with meat. There is nothing wrong with raising animals for their flesh if done in a "humane" way. I've been to slaughters before and I helped cutting the meat afterwards. I have respect for animals and I care about the degree of exploitation nowadays but I don't consider them on the same level as humans.
>>
>>41726631
Right. Fair enough then, thanks for broadening my perspective. I'll ponder on it a bit and see where it takes me.
>>
>>41726614

What's weird is that I drink very little water as well, about a liter not counting the soy milk obviously.

Maybe if I drink more water it will get better? Idk, maybe I should just go to a doctor if this keeps going for a week with no signs of improvement.

To be frank, I've always ate very low fiber content untill now, I changed my diet completely overnight from a low carb meat based one to full on vegan with lots of beans and grains.

But it's been 2 weeks and a half already, I hope it gets better soon or I'm afraid I'm gonna have to either cut all fibre rich foods which will make sticking to a vegan diet extremely difficult.
>>
>>41726654
>I've always ate very low fiber content untill now
Yeah that's probably it. I always ate a lot of fruits and at least some vegetables so my gut flora was at least somewhat used to it while yours was only used to metabolising animal fat.

I'm pretty sure it will get better, every pro vegan study/article/doctor says there is a settling-in period but sadly I've never come accross an actual time estimate before.

Maybe try to reduce your fibre intake a little bit so it's not at 50g but maybe 30g per day. Not sure what to eat though I've never adviced against fiber, "decent" white bread like fresh baguette doesn't have a lot of fibre. More water is almost always a good idea.

bullshit. I can sell property. You clearly must understand there is something more valuable to a human childs life than a social contract right? As in logically, you must understand that a childs value comes from its depth of experience and its right to non exploitation. So they do posses some rights, thats all vegans want. Just to give animal basic rights that we give to humans.

Its the logical conclusion to be vegan, as there is no trait absent in an animal that if absent in a human would deem it morally good/neutral to needlessly exploit them.

Prove me wrong, name the trait? if you do i will film myself eating a pig.

Retardation yet again from corpsemunchers.

Nobody here is saying animal life is just as valuable as humans, in fact im vegan and ive stated numerous times in this thread that all else held constant, a humans life is of more moral value than an animal. Any vegan who argues otherwise is a moron.

>life has as much value as you give it
bullshit, you do not hold this position. If i gave a rock more value than your mom, would that justify me stabbing your mom? Dont try and get into law, if it was legel etc would that be moral behavior? No. Life value correlates with sentience.

Yeah we all live in a world sustained by suffering, how does that justify stabbing animals? It doesnt. Nice red herring kid.

A vegan can still cheat and that, its just the position of veganism is morally superior to a non vegan position.

Most corpsemunchers have not made the connection, they are psychotically indoctrinated due to social engineering. Its not your true self to want to stab animals just because lol

We know for a fact that animals with complex nervous systems and developed brains feel pain, suffering, remorse, fear, sadness, etc.

Have you ever been around a dog? A farm animal? They know what's going on around them.

If I take a blind step back in my kitchen and my dog is behind me (as he usually is) and I step on his paw by accident, he shrieks to high heaven. Are you implying that it's unreasonable to assume that he can experience pain and suffering?

It's really not an arbitrary line:

>can it experience pain, suffering, and a miserable existence?

Yes? Then don't bring it into this world to experience such an existence just to eat it. Carrots can't suffer. Pigs can.

there is nothing morally wrong with selling children, per se. you wouldn't argue against giving a child up for adoption, i dont see how money changes this from a moral perspective.

it's -your- logical conclusion to be vegan, not mine. livestock doesnt possess morals. a cow would have no remorse or empathy for you if it were to somehow kill you. a cow doesnt respect your property rights or your free will. it's not a human and therefore isn't capable of possessing basic human rights.

youre arguing from an ethical viewpoint, but you need to understand that ethics do not overpower moral rights. you must understand that for something to be 'immoral', as in goes contrary to human nature, it must be punishable as well. you are suggesting that it's acceptable to imprison or use force against fucking farmers if they violate their animals' rights, it's ridiculous.

>>41727273
>Are you implying that it's unreasonable to assume that he can experience pain and suffering?
That wasn't the question. The question was whether it is intelligent enough to experience a subjective reality. as defined >>41727170
Which would imply a higher level of brain function, you have no way of knowing exists or does not exist.

>can it experience pain, suffering, and a miserable existence?
again, knowing the unknowable. You have no way of knowing if a chicken hates being in a cage. You consider that life miserable, but to a chickens limited brain, it is just as likely to not even recognize such a state. All it knows it is has food and water.

are you honestly saying there is nothing wrong with child slavery?

You know im not on about adoption, stop being intellectually dishonest.

If i said "this rock has more value than this girl i bred, so i can rape this girl" would you say that is moral? No.

The life value of someone clearly correlates with its sentience. Its depth of life.

>Cows do no possess morals
how does this justify stabbing them? Plenty of humans do not possess morals, such as babies, the severely mentally retarded, dementia patients etc. You wouldnt think a holocaust of the retarded is justified based on this logic so why the difference with animals?

to get around this, name the trait absent in animals, that if absent in humans would justify murder.

or just admit carnism is not logical.
>>
>>41727326
so going to the mind body problem proves animals dont subjectively experience reality, and this justifies killing them LOL

Try actually understanding what you are responding too, using an appeal to collectivist is not non hypocritical, surely you understand this?

>black people are different from white people so its ok for blacks to enslave whites

your same logic can justify that, you have no logical opposition to that reasoning, as according to you it is justified thinking.

To say the same justifications to needlessly cause suffering can sometimes be true, and sometimes be false is a double standard.

No, i do not have to justify anything. Eating meat is the default position of humanity, you need to put forth a logical reason why I shouldn't. Which you have not done.

Infantile thinking.
If that highly unrealistic thing happened, then sure it will be sad to kill these animals, but it would be needed.

It will be a gradual process, clearly the population is too indoctrinated and stupid to come to terms with the fact that causing needless suffering and death is not right. And its more important than how much oats you can eat.

None of you have gfs anyway, always filled with tfwnogf threads, aint vegans posting that hahaha
>>
>>41727439
>Do you understand that one set or ideas/thoughts/principals/logic/ethics doesn't have to blanket apply to everything else?

ofcourse, ex, its not immoral to withdraw a cows "right too vote"

but if you wanna say it doesnt apply you need a logical reason for it. Cows cant comprehend politics so they should not be allowed to vote, same with babies, same with mentally ill people etc...this is consistent logic.

You saying you reject your logic in the human context, but accept it in the animal context, must NAME THE TRAIT absent in animals, that if absent in humans, would justify murder.

Appeal to collective, does not work. You rejected your own argument in the human context. Double standard. Contradiction. Second law of logic is non contradiction.

Name the trait and you have refuted everything ive posted.

also, you still havent explained how im being intellectually dishonest...you just asserted things without evidence AGAIN

having a child under your custody isnt the same as slavery, is it?

you dont have to be on about anything, im just pointing out how adoption isnt immoral, neither is the act of selling children for adoption, it's the same thing. you're not selling the right to own the child, you're selling the right to give that child an upbringing.

with the rape thing, obviously not, i'm not sure where you got that from or why you think i'd argue for it. the difference is that humans and animals aren't interchangeable in that scenario.

i'm going to read up on some decent arguments to better explain what exactly separates every other animal from humans in the rights they possess. i still firmly hold my viewpoint, i'm just not intelligent enough to really argue that well for it. thanks for the discussion though.

Obviously not, this trait fails. Next

>spoiler alert: there is no trait

>>41727471
i said in my previous post i was NOT talking about adoption. Please read what i say and understand it before you type.

>the rape thing
that was my argument, you just misunderstood it/strawmanned it as adoption. Obviously adoption isnt immoral.

Im saying your previous reasoning could be used to justify that.

As for your last point, dude...animals are different from us obviously, im not saying we should give em the right to vote or abortion lol....just the right to not getting needlessly stabbed.

Its something you would want if in their position, what justification do you really have?

they taste good?
so pleasure justifies immoral actions?

we are better than them?
might makes right fallacy, so if i can rape a child its ok to do so?

etc

to get around this name the trait.

so tasty is our justification, because of how often we do it. Appeal to popularity fallacy.

Also tasty is not a justification, as you would clearly not think cannibals should be set free for this same reason. Double standard, contradictions.....for it to not be a contradiction, name the trait....

also, stop being vague, grow up.

Tasty is one of a lot of justifications. I could say tradition but I don't think you'd like that as a response (I don't either but I know people who would use it and stand by it firmly.)
We don't like eating each other for a lot of reason, of course I don't have a detailed reasoning or list because it's generally gross and weird. We have other things, or creatures in this case to munch on instead.
>Does pleasure justify immoral actions?
That depends entirely on the action and how much pleasure you get. Along with the society or social group you're partaking those things in.
It's not really contradictory for me to hold humans eating animals to one standard and humans eating humans to another even if they think it's tasty. I have no idea why you can't wrap your head around that. The entire basis for your argument is that you refuse to accept other people's reasonings for doing something you don't like. Which is pretty silly to me.
Anyway your trait meme is a fallacy in of itself. It's forcing the person asked to make an equal comparison between humans and animals. When there really isn't. Sure they feel suffering or get sad (Tho there are arguments against that, see that sad hawk video and how birds don't all really feel or w/e.), but in terms of being equal they're just not
It's cool you wanna stop people from forwarding the meat industry at large and I respect you for it. But I don't expect you to make any head way when you rely on feels which for a lot of people doesn't matter.
>>41727532

ent even reading the rest, stopped at "how can you not comprehend i think humans eating humans is one thing and humans eating animals as another"

as you clearly do not understand what im saying, you cant comprehend it for some weird reason.

Im not even implying cannibalism and eating another species of animal is the same. Im saying you need a justification that works for either, so it is consistent. Or you morals are based on illogical reasoning, as contradiction is breaking the second law of logic.

You are arguing extremes to make a point because you don't like arguing the semantics and nuances of the subject at hand.

They're always exactly the same, because it's a new fun way to power shit post.
The logic that used to come to that conclusion is in of itself illogical. Because not everyone wants to holocaust the retarded, and some people also want to eat chicken.

>>41726484
I'm a vegetarian, not a vegan, but I know I have made at least four people stop eating meat. What happens if those four people do the same thing?
>>
Since the only way for us to have meaningful discussions despite differing starting points and/or values is to use reason, it follows that it does not make sense to impose our value judgments of right and wrong without proper rational justification (which would be impossible since our value judgements stem from ethical frameworks that might be arbitrary, not shared and not a feature of reality). From this amoral void emerges a principle of self-determination, since imposition of our value judgements would necessarily imply shitting on reason (specially on the concept of burden of proof) and using force or other means to make our morality prevalent. Also applying this selectively could easily be special pleading.

If it is just about ethics, I do not see anything wrong with eating animals. Reason is the starting point. We need self awareness to check if we are using reason or not. You need a hardware that can support a consciousness able of the things that I just mentioned in order to even begin a dialogue (like we are doing right now). If the animal does not have the required hardware for self awareness and at least some form of reason, I see no need to have the same considerations towards them than those that we have towards humans (or anything with the proper hardware).
