But how do you feed the masses? In a western world that is so busy being politically correct, and trying to urbanize the world you can’t feed people without factory farms. The more you urbanize and civilize people on the western standard, the stranger things get in these farms. I kept hearing no pain killers thru out the video, but who is going to pay for the pain killers, who is going to invest time waiting 30 minuets to ensure the painkiller reaches maximum effect. Then you have pay specialized people to administer the pain killers, and even then doing the same job every day you are going to get nonchalant and just poke where ever.
The only way these animals are going to get rights is if overweight Shawna and John decide to start eating healthy and right. Factory farms are a by product of massive urbanization, industrialization, medical achievements, selective breeding of plants, and heavy saturation of media. All of which promote uncontrolled population growth.
Look at the bright side though, the next big plague is going to come from these factory farms. The universal constant will make sure of that. All deadly plagues come from farms/animals.
One thing i didn’t agree with was that gassing wasn’t humane. Throwing in CO2 in room full of animals would yield death from asphixiation. They type of asphixiation people die from when they cook with charcoal inside thier homes with no ventilation.
I know… OP didn’t think before making this thread. Guangzhou is not a really rich part of China or modernized. People eat what they can get. Not everything comes from a farm, a lot of people raise their own stock to eat. Dog meat is actually more of a delicacy from what I understand rather than something that’s eaten normally.
There’s just a lot more to worry about in our land than beyond. I mean that’s why there’s so much artificial processing in our food now here in the states.
Look at the panics when ecoli and mad cow start hitting farms. It’s just a testament to the bad treatment and conditioning of the farms and slaughterhouses.
Obesity is rampant in America. If China was even 15% as obese as America, you’d probably see less dogs being eaten lol
right, at the rate China is growing there is even going to be even more mistreatment and knowing how the Chinese operate. Lead in milk, its like they are purposly trying to castrate the population and kill them.
I just wish these videos weren’t propaganda for Vegan’s. They should stop making arguments that are aimed at the emotions of people, and provide actual solutions to these problems.
gotta love how people think only poor people eat dogs. you go to a bosintang spot and there are niggas chillin in their suits and throwing down soju whilst munching o their dog soup (i’mma have to disagree with rcaido, it tastes like beef, but a little more gamey). the idea that “we” as humanity have universally declared eating dog, cat or whatever off limits is the stupidest shit ever considering more than half the world has no problem eating them.
and as someone else said, as far as intelligence goes pigs are significantly smarter and more human like than dogs (and piglets are even pretty cute) yet nobody gives half a fuck about the fucked up things we do to them. unless you’re a vegan, you should shut your hypocritical ass the fuck up when it comes to eating dogs and the humanity of it all bcuz you don’t have a rational leg to stand on.
Eating and burning things while they’re still alive don’t have to go hand in hand - fuck anyone that does that. Dogs, lobsters, babies, whatever. Extremely unnecessary. The main issue here isn’t that some people eat animals others like to keep as pets, it’s the way they go about it.
For the record, I never meant to incinuate that cooking live puppies was justifiable because lobsters are cooked in kind. Only that puppies taste better when they are cooked live.
Lol this. Guangzhou is the province across from Hong Kong. It may not be anywhere near the same, but it still is very much developed.
Folks would believe that wealth spread across from the island that is more modernised than many parts of the Western world.
animal cruelty’s more of when you do what you’re doing to animals so as to get some sort of sick pleasure out of it. in some instances, “quick clean deaths” can be animal cruelty
i disagree. i have 4 legs to stand on.
Spoiler
nah i don’t actually disagree, i just wanted to say that.
Big sea cockroach is big. Although there is the common misconception that lobsters scream when you boil them. They have no vocal chords, its just the steam escaping from the shell.
people cry over animals being killed but fuck the chickens, pigs, goats, and cows. I could find out mcdonalds burgers were made of dog and cat together and I would stop eating them. Hell. there’s a lot of other crap in our foods thats far worse than animal meat (Whatever animal it may be) and we eat it fine. I think i read once that Red coloring for shakes and strawberry items are made from crushed beetles. No one has problems with that…right?
Even the asian countries own dogs for pets now, so there’s no excuse to eat a dog. Only a few crazy hippy liberals own pigs for pets. We domesticated wolves over thousands of years so they could be helpful assistants to us. We domesticated wild boar … so we could EAT IT. so sure pigs are smart blah blah blah, but the thousands of years of cultural history have clearly designated wolves as friends, boars as food.
and that’s why only a small backwards ass minority in the backwater dark alley ways would be horrible enough to eat a dog. if pigs had been kept around as pets for thousands of years, then maybe there’d be an argument, but they haven’t.
To be fair… as far as I know, eating bosingtang (dog meat in korea) is becoming less popular… at least that’s what I’ve heard. Being Korean-American myself… I wouldn’t be able to do it though haha… dogs are too awesome =(
I think white shadow’s post has the best reasoning for you. I call it the “Tier mentality”, there are animals that are close to the human status. Dogs are probably the closest. They are given the title “mans best friend” for a reason… they are more loyal to a person than a person is to a person. Therefore they deserve the respect.
Bottom line (to further back up the tier logic i gave)… if we were to excuse this because of “they’re animals and we need to eat” reasoning, then you guys should be ok with other guys performing cannibalism. Why is that disgusting for you? We’re animals also, aren’t we? Therefore a random tribe nut should get your approval for burning you alive for food. Eating dogs is disgusting, period…
said the American, his nose hiked up in the air as if to signal that anyone who disagrees isn’t worth their salt.
seriously though, this dog = close to humanity argument is bullshit as someone else proved earlier. you don’t wanna eat dog cause you don’t like the idea.
funny how societies have made us into what we are today. we live in a place where we get to be all self-righteous about what we eat.
well, not saying I’m hungry for a dog sammich. but I’d give it a try before I say it’s disgusting without knowing
i guess your right. Eating dogs is a different story, because they’re just animals… i guess we should just lean our focus on the eating of human fetus’ only, then… i mean, i hope that’s sick to you also.
