I agree. While I feel like I couldn’t kill a mouse/rat with my hands and watch it die, but I think I could make myself set a trap that kills the animal instantly out of my sight.
Very interesting point you’ve made!
Emotional bond or no, I don’t have it me to walk up to a (random or raised) animal and slit its throat. Especially when it’s raised by me.
If it was a matter of life or death - that’s a different topic. Right now, there’s no reason to eat animal meat, except for “yummy”.
The meat industry has done a “marvelous” job of disconnecring “killing” with “consuming meat”. No, I don’t feel like I’m killing the animal, because I’m not doing it.
I’m eating meat because it’s “yummy”. But that wasn’t what I said in the original comment. I said if I had to choose (which I currently don’t have to do). And I said I couldn’t kill an animal with my own hands, just because it’s tasty, because I’m not a psycho.
Apparently, I don’t have a issue when a psycho does it and delivers me the meat, of an animal I have never seen before.
I wish it wasn’t this way, and I’m trying to reduce my meat consumption (and I have, by a lot). But we don’t live in an ideal world.
Same with climate change. You know that people are already dying because of it. I’m nor directly killing the people, but they are dying because of it. And me being “comfortable” adds to climate change (even if it’s a minute addition, just like eating a Big Mac is a minute part of the killed animal)
Yes, you’ve got the biggest, best truths. A lotta people tell you that your truths are the greatest of all times.
Nice, we got an “acktchually” over here.
If you want to be a part of the discussion, read and use the context.
Killing a cow I raised would be the same as killing a dog I raised.
Just because it’s “yummy” and “I feel like it”?
Seems pretty insane to me, but people be people’ing.
The process of eating meat? Sure.
The way people in the modern world obtain meat? Nothing natural about that.If I was made to hunt my game, or kill the animal I raised, I’d never eat meat.
If you aren’t raising cows in your backyard, I have bad news for you…

It’s not like “PEMDAS” is easy to remember, as “Pemdas” as word does not exist.
We didn’t have anything to remember it by either, you just learn the order of operations and that’s it.

I am. I’m also telling you.
Coal rolling, but for IT-literate.


Wrong, it’s just outsourcing.
You’re making a false-equivalence. A director is actively doing their job; they’re a puppeteer and the rest is their puppet. The puppeteer is not outsourcing his job to a puppet.
And I’m pretty sure you don’t know what architects do.
If I hire a coder to write an app for me, whether it’s a clanker or a living being, I’m outsourcing the work; I’m a manager.
It’s like tasking an artist to write a poem for you about love and flowers, and being proud about that poem.
