Animal flesh and animal byproducts in general are excellent sources of protein and fat. The simplest way to get big and strong is eating meat. If we ever live in a world where being big and strong doesn't matter then I will gladly give up eating meat, but good luck convincing women to be attracted to scrawny little twinks and good luck convincing the men of the world to never fight each other.

Vitamin B12 can only be acquired in reasonable levels from animals. Some vegetables have it, but they do not have enough to realistically cover a person's required intake of the vitamin.

Fun fact: when vegans are forced to take B12 supplements due to their diet, the pills are often actually derived from animal supplements.

Humans have been eating meat for millions of years, and it has gotten to the point that we actually need the vitamins in it to live. You wouldn't make a cat go vegan, would you?

The fact that some scrawny little betas can luck their way into an unattractive partner doesn't change the fact that the archetypal attractive man is large and strong. If women IN GENERAL ever start to prefer twinky vegan pussies then by all means you'll start to see men stop eating meat, but as long as size and strength are still appreciated in our society I'm not going to stop eating the easiest source of size and strength on the planet.

As for your pathetic limpwristed stance on wars and physical confrontation....well all I'll say is that if you ever manage to convince a society of men that they should never have to fight all that's going to happen is another society of men that ARE forced to fight is going to come in, slaughter them, and rape their women. You complain about niggers but that's exactly who will take over your ideal little vegan society where every man is a weak ineffectual bitch.

But through out all these instances of death, I've bonded with those I've committed the act with, my uncles, father, brother, cousins, grandparents, they understood the role I played in providing food for them and the rest of my family.

This is riddled with subjectiveness. These animals are raised in many different ways and you have near to no idea how to tell whether an animal experiences their particular life as terrible, the slaughterhouse standard way of putting out an animal is a death quicker and more merciful than most humans get to die. Nor are they aware of what's going on or for what purpose they have been brought to life in the first place.

As far as I'm concerned it depends on how they're treated.

The US specifically has a huge problem with animal cruelty in the industry but that's not the case in many other countries.

If the animals are treated right, and then killed for meat after they lived their lives, I don't see the problem.

In exchange for food and complete absence of predators they get to live a couple years, but they don't have to live in fear or get any kind of stress, and then they die instantly instead of literally being eaten alive by predators.

If your argument is "muh animal cruelty" then what you're really arguing against is animal cruelty in the industry, and not eating meat.
>>
>You have ten seconds to justify eating meat that came from literally tortured-to-death animals.

Well both. In the short term, this industry isn't going away, so at least the conditions of the animals needs to be drastically improved.

Ideally, long term, no one would feel the need to kill animals for food products. It's been proven that we (humans) are able to live healthy, happy lives without the need of senseless murder.

Believe it or not, some of robots really are vegetarians. I agree with the sentiment of OP's pic, but at the same time, I think this is a conclusion that people need to come to on their own terms. Trying to force any kind of belief or lifestyle on another person usually just backfires and causes that person to distance themselves even further from your lifestyle.

Also, old habits die hard. If your family raised you to eat meat, a sudden change in dietary lifestyle is going to involve going against habits you've relied on all your life. It wasn't all that easy for me. I had to learn a great deal more about balancing my nutrition, and what seemingly innocuous food ingredients I had to start avoiding.

It's not senseless murder, they'd die anyway eaten by predators, and they'd suffer a lot more. If we were to stop eating meat, the cattle we eat would go mostly extinct since they have no place in any environment anymore.

Nature works like that, they'll die, they'll get eaten, they're prey, that is unavoidable. At least in a proper farm they'll live comfy lives and die quickly.

And what does that mean to civilization now? We've already evolved. It's not as if going vegetarian is going to result in the collapse of civilization, or some regressive "de-evolution" of humankind. Our oversized brains are perfectly capable of being sustained by plant-based protein sources. (and animal byproducts, if you're an ovo-lacto vegetarian instead of a vegan)

Pointing out that meat played a role in human evolution is not a valid argument against vegetarianism today.

Shouldn't you be the one who need to justify why this needs to stop?

After all, it's a custom which has been going on for longer than written history, which isn't the case for behaviors like rape (punished by the law in most era and countries).

Also, it had an incredible positive impact on humans since our ancestors began eating meat millions of year ago, outweighting by far the ethical problem of killing animals to save human lives.

So you would also have to prove that we can stop eating meat without impacting the general health, because killing animals is injustified only if the alternative isn't inferior to eating them.

Even then it would only be true for our rather advanced civilization: I would still give a free-pass to my ancestors, who would have died without meat.

So let's say a horse eats a chick on the farm.

The horse has plenty of other options for food, but it eats and kills another living creature, because it is hungry.

And horses are intelligent, it knows it is causing pain to another creature.

At what part is this immoral/wrong?


Same thing applies to man, because man is an animal.

>So let's say a horse eats a chick on the farm.

Incredibly unlikely, but okay.

>The horse has plenty of other options for food, but it eats and kills another living creature, because it is hungry.

This is not a typical horse. Horses are by and large herbivores, but I will accept the plausibility of your hypothetical scenario.

>And horses are intelligent, it knows it is causing pain to another creature.

We don't know that the horse knows it is causing pain to another creature, actually. Perhaps the horse doesn't know that.

>At what part is this immoral/wrong?

That depends on what you're talking about when you say "immoral/wrong". Defining it with a simple synonym like "evil" or "wicked" or "shitty" isn't enough.

I'm sure there is, but I don't believe it's a common thing that happens or that horses typically eat chicks.

Pigs are a predatory animal and I certainly wouldn't put it past them to eat live creatures. Horses...I don't doubt it could happen but I don't think it's "very common".

Maybe I'm mistaken on that point. Maybe horses do often eat baby chicks if given the chance. The matter of how common it is for horses to eat chicks isn't really all that relevant.

For the purpose of the definition.

Morality is there because humanity is there.

There wasn't a moral universe, and then humans appeared.

>>
>>35480604
>A lion doesn't posses the ability to make decisions based on more than reasons of instant gratification

Animals in general do not. Which means they are objectively inferior and OK to kill and eat. They are not subject to the same rights a human does and your argument justifies it.

So, what's wrong with eating animals, again?

There is not even an evolutionary reason 4 humans to feel empathy 4 animals, it could even be considered an evolutionary imperfection.

Humans feel empathy for animals because it is "morally ok".

Remember:

Humans define morals. You're best with the morals you have, but you can change them if it benefits you and others: Morals exist to help humans.

>"Wait, wait! There is no evolution and morals are defined by God!"

|Even if you believe this, it says in the Bible that humans should rule over animals and eat them.

Normal non-vegan empathy* for animals is okay. It won't hurt you or others.

|*Loving animals, anti animal cruelty, eats meat. (Usually not contradictory, but that wouldn't really matter anyways.)

Vegan-style "empathy" ** for animals can too far.

|**Has empathy for animals 100% as if they were humans

The imaginary problem of a cow being killed hurts a vegan. Instead of trying to stop it, they should realize the root problem.
>You're best with the morals you have, but you can change them if it benefits you and others. After all, morals exist to help humans.
In this case, Their empathy for the animal is misdirected and should be directed at a human. Because the empathy for the animal is harmful to the human.***
They should feel good for humans eating meat instead of feeling bad for the cow's death.

***Not just 'hurting the human's feelings', but also depriving him of the nutrition of meat and making him go out of his way to be vegan

>The pains of veganism are not significantly bad enough to warrant killing animals
Killing animals can't be "worse" than veganism - because killing an animal is only as bad as the human feels about it.

Vegans should realize that human empathy should only be directed towards animals if it does not hurt the human. Empathy exists to preserve humans, not to wipe them out.

If you can survive without eating meat, and you're sure it won't significantly harm you, then do it. But make sure it doesn't hurt anyone else (a human).

Animals are not conscious, what appears to be consciousness is just biological reactions and instinct. Human consciousness is also an illusion, however since we "experience" it ourselves we take it in good faith that other humans have the same experience and are sympathetic. Preservation of our own species is just another type of biological instinct.
If you believe that animals have rights then you're probably the same kind of retard who believes that souls exist or that morality is objective (or that it exists at all). When you grow up and realize that the universe is deterministic and our consciousness is simply a unecessary illusion brought about by chemical reactions and there is no such thing as free will or even thoughts, then you will leave behind stupid concepts like vegetarianism.

Animals are not conscious and most of them are stupid as fuck and deserve to die.

My one regret is that i'm not the one personally doing the killing. Maybe i should start hunting, better than hitting deer with my car

Don't treat the dogs like people. Treat the dogs like dogs, they are better than people.

go for it anon. I love moose, bear and deer hunting for food.

Have a few deep freezers full of tasty animals to eat.

Humans are also not conscious, we are all what is referred to as "P-Zombies". We tend not to kill and rape each other because we know that cooperation with other humans is beneficial to the individual. It's all just biological instinct, don't make the mistake of thinking we are any better than the retarded squirrels. We possess better reasoning power but there is no conscious thought or free will in place, we're driven by determinism just as much as any other species in the universe is.

>>35478432
How about because I need it to live a healthy life and there is literally no reason why I should feel bad about eating animals. Animals eat animals all the time. We're animals.
Unless you think we shouldn't eat animals for a religious reason your points are invalid.
>>
>>35485477

Yes and I still hunt and skin animals for fun and food.

Death is just a natural part of life, if I didn't kill them something else would.

Yes, and some animals eat their own young especially when they're starving.

Then let's take the humble crow for instance.

The crow is easily one of the most intelligent species of bird, if not animal entirely, that humans have extensive research about. They are able to communicate to each other to avoid areas on crow told others was dangerous, they visit their aging parents years after the fact, they recognize human faces as distinct people and remember interactions with them. Most importantly they have the ability to think beyond instant gratification, as tested crows actually have been able to restrain themselves from eating a smaller portion of food if they can wait to get a bigger portion. They problem solve through trial and error to get food, etc.

Crows are also omnivorous. They eat nuts, berries, seeds, small wildlife, and corpses.

So if a crow spots a field mouse out in the wild, and it swoops down and kills it for food when it instead could have continued searching for berries or something, does that make the crow evil?

>slaughtering them to death
as opposed to slaughtering them to life?

All other species are the same way, okay with killing other species but not their own: we empathize and care more about 1 human than a million cows. It's our programming. Since the rise of large societies, we have even compartmentalized empathy within our species.

I sincerely doubt you're starving but keep meat as a primary part of your diet because high sodium, fat, and animal hormones are so good for you! I bet you drink milk lol

I love meat too and there's nothing I can do about it but the meat industry causes so much pollution

Zero fucks given though because I'm on r9kunts
>>
>>35478511
You give the animals life but you also take it back, the animal wouldn't have been their in the first place. So does an animal on a farm these days suffer more than they did in the wild? The slaughtering is actually not the problem, animals are knocked unconscious first and then killed... Anyways who gives a shit people are going to eat no matter what including me because it's taste y
>>
>>35478432

>dont like current facotry farming

hey here is a cool idea stop buying your meat at grocery stores like walmart and find a local dedicated butcher shop.

The one down the road from where I live buys all their meat local from farmers that raise their cows and pigs from birth to slaughter on their old school free range farms.

That or find an actual farmer visit their farm and ask to buy half a cow or a whole pig to be processed for you.
>>
>>35478432
Morally, it's not justifiable. Practically, I'm not going to starve myself in a world steeped in evil. too autistic to change my taste in food.

(Also in utilitarian terms, the "creating demand" argument doesn't really work. Companies already overproduce food then dump it. For it to actually matter you'd need everyone to act collectively, and if that was possible then we could just have fully automated vegan communism.)
>>
>>35478432
>The animals are products of millennia of artificial selection and would go extinct if not for humans.
>The animals have no concept of morality and are unable to contribute to a moral system. Unless you're stupid enough to believe in moral systems as some sort of 'magic guide from God' then it follows that animals should not be participants in systems they cannot contribute to.
>All arguments for vegetarianism relating to real moral players (ie. people) turn out to be false. For example, whether becoming vegetarian will reduce your environmental impact is unknown. You could easily eat out of season fruits and vegetables and be a BIGGER contributor to environmental problems.
>Vegetarian morality is inconsistent. Do vegetarians support massive campaigns to prevent other animals from eating meat? Why is it only bad when humans do it? Because we should know better? Well, we do know better, we know that being omnivorous is the most efficient way to satisfy our energy needs.

There are plenty of arguments against your worldview and if you weren't the personification of confirmation bias you'd have some awareness of them.

Yeah I mean alright, you can make that argument but you'll need a solution too. Guilt tripping people into not eating meat isn't a very effective solution. You're gonna have to find a way to offer a product that's has the same nutrition as meat, is easy and affordable to acquire and find a way to minimize the economic damage when the entire meat industry inventively falls.

Then you'll have to figure out the problem with the hundreds of millions of domesticated farm animals that are now useless to us. Letting them go out into the wild will just get them killed since they literally can't survive on their own or you just end up slaughtering all of them yourself in the end since they can't do anything anymore.

I'll stress again, if you want to stop this you're going to have to offer realistic solutions to the populations.

Hunting has seasons and permits, guns and ammo are an expensive investment.

Wild animals can have mystery diseases and illnesses you don't know about.

Some people are too much of a pussy or idiot to skin and process their own kills. So that costs money if you drop them off at a processing facility.

Not everyone is cut out for hunting or the end game of it.

eating vegan kills more animals than eating meat
eating vegan also does vastly more damage to the environment than does eating meat
there are more but those two you cant refute

>wolf eating a deer is 100% ok because it's "natural"
>human eating a cow is 100% evil because it's "unnatural"
Humans are animals, we are part of nature- your liberal moralism means jack shit. We're the only carnivorous species intelligent enough to find a more effective way to get our meat than hunting and that is 100% ok.
>>
>>35478432
Humans need meat. Vegans live less than the average person and have more diseases. It's just in our genes and physical needs.
>>35478587
>A lot of animals are smarter than most humans
Then why the fuck no one says anything about those animals that are "smarter than humans" when they eat other animals in order to live?

Where I work we pull them up and slit the neck as they go up.

They pass out from blood pressure drop and bleed out in seconds, the resulting kicking is just nervous system firing off.

I don't eat meat, I do care for animals a lot, but that's not the real reason I don't eat meat, fuck I don't even know why I don't eat meat, but about 2 years in so I can't stop now. I wouldn't mind just saying fuck animals though.

Easy, an animal may be able to feel pain and shit but an animal unlike a human isn't self aware of it's existence and if it was raised and fed so I could eat then it is fulfilling it's life's purpose.

I feel like animals are more likely to die a much more horrible death in the wild than in a slaughterhouse, and therefore the act of killing them doesnt really bother me

Except animals are inferior to us. Just like niggers.
