Using intelligence (something you dont understand) as a proxy for value is an absurd godless religion and refuted in every way by every other arbitrary set of values that results in greater evolutionary fitness as a matter of fact. You have no metaphysics and can not die right. You can only die weak and conquered or successful and well known. The best you can hope for is being an r selected slave caste dependent society because disregarding meat makes it impossible for most of the population, other than the elite, to grow fully developed brains and bodies. It does not matter how right you think you are because such a society is made slaves to a better one and going forward either devolves into animals and eventually goes extinct (ape species are short lived) or evolves into meat eating humans again.

If you have metaphysics you can be disregarded anyways because they’re not real.

>>5094278
about what exactly lol. I ate a burger yesterday

>>5094256
Nah. Dogs evolved to and were selected further for triggering human empathy instincts. If you eat dogs you are a dysgenic servitor creature only fit to follow orders and expire for the benefit of your superiors, lest you be a parasite incapable of playing by the rules of advanced society. Dog eaters are universally associated with garbage conditions and inferior nations. Even the chinese loathe dog eating peasants and are actively working towards a future without them. Livestock on the other hand were bred to be just contemptible enough to be edible to people with the optimal balance between in group and out group preference.

I think it's wrong to eat cats. Not because they're smart (they're not), but because they're disgusting vermin that spread plagues and parasites and I would never want that anywhere near my mouth.

>>5094225
Anyone who works with cows knew this already. There are 2 kinds of people who eat meat, those who feel justified to kill and eat cows despite them being every bit as personable as a dog, and those who are in denial and imagine them as some kind of lesser mammal that feels less.

>>5094350
They might be personable but they're hard to feel bad for. Dogs (at least proper dogs, not golden retriever tier tards) will not tolerate slaughter or farm conditions because they have superior willpower and self awareness (predators have bigger souls than prey). Cows won't care much. But one cow can still feed a family for a year and produce a hundred pounds of useful byproducts, and killing them is still a big deal. They're not a staple product. They're a huge investment too.

Now, chickens, most people should eat chicken. They are genuinely worthless animals somewhat below a cat. Basically tastier vermin. They can look cute for youtube but in real life they are horrid reptilian automatons that exist solely so ensouled mammals can have something to eat. Bonus: Eggs.

vegans are performative narcissists in the fedora tipper category. first and foremost they want other people to think they are enlightened, advanced, progressive, and thoughtful, and of course, they want to be better than people who are not.

therefore the foundational concern that gives rise to their entire value system is intelligence.

vegans will go as far as constructing laughable illogical studies to claim that they are smarter *because* they are vegan... when really, it's just that only wealthier people and therefore smarter people are likely to have the opportunity to be a vegan without ending up in the hospital, or have access to paths of indoctrination into the pseudo-religious ideals upon which their beliefs ultimately find purchase for that matter. i have often seen vegans even claim they are nicer people, based on their own self reported personality characteristics. but every vegan i have known has been a nasty asshole and a telescope philantropist. self reported indeed.

>>5095696
>I love it when vegans think intelligence matters when it comes to deciding what to eat.

>>5094225
Doesn't matter, cows or any animal can never be moral agents or represent themselves. I can eat a thousand, not one will come knocking on my door.

>muh fetus and insane patients
they have the potential to be moral agents and represent themselves, babies by growth and insane patients through medical tech. it will be at least a million years before any animal alive today reaches the moral capability of a human

>so braindead patients can be eaten?
no, because of disease, retard

>why don't you eat cats and dogs
carnivores taste like shit thanks to stringy musculature and their diets giving unpleasant tastes to meat. even omnivores like pigs require castration and special diets to taste good.

>what about pet chickens
I have eaten my own pet chickens after they stopped laying eggs. problem?

>>5097669
We selectively bred cats and dogs to force your ape brain to turn on its empathy circuits. If someone casually eat sthem, they are a problem. We have plenty of ugly as fuck pitiable/disgusting animals for people to eat like pitbulls, cows, and OPs mother.

I don't, but why would I eat a cat when capitalism doesn't put people into such desperate levels of starvation to resort to such sub-optimal sources of food? You wouldn't even have the option of a vegan diet if it weren't for meat-eating capitalists. Why do you think they eat dog in China? It's not some "equally valid cultural thing" it's because they don't have the abundance of food.

Shame on you

I just wanted to see some cute cow pics
the fuck is wrong with you faggots

i havent eaten beef since 2016 cause cows are my favorite animal.

i've always assumed this has been the case, cause if there was a bunch of smart cows nobody would really know because they dont have names or spend time with them. theres probably a couplee thousand owned as pets or in vegan farms in the whole world, its not enough sample size to have a control group for smart vs unsmart.

just stop eating cows if you feel bad about this stuff, you don't need to become vegan. the other massively farmed animals are evil and or retarded anyway, people hallucinate chicken and fish intelligence and they eat poop and theyd swim by with their mouth open like a retard and eat you if you were small enough without chewing just like the vore porno. chicken abandon their eggs and let them rot and would also eat you like a vore porno.
cows are the only massively farmed animal that is pure and intelligent.

the people who bred them have low empathy genetically and have no allegiance beyond their immediate family. even other asians dislike them. its like they have brain damage from eating a low meat diet.

yahweh really beat you on this one. the kosher diet is the best for human development. pork, shellfish, unclean meats and veganism are all bad for you and society. although kosher slaughter should be taken in spirit instead of literally. at the time it was the most humane and safe option. so the current kosher slaughter should be the most humane and safe option.

>>5094243
I've eaten cat once, we were in an anthropology class trip to a hunting native community in northern Quebec, guide collared a cat, and of course all the girls in the class were horrified so I ended up volunteering to skin and prepare it.
Its more a waste of meat than anything, really. There's so little meat on it that we had to make it a soup, essentially tasted like chicken soup.
Truth is, cats bring more value as silly little goblins, that's all the reason you should have not to eat them.

I don't eat cats because I like cats. I don't care if other people do. I eat cows because they taste good, feel free to abstain if you don't want to. It's not that hard of a concept.

Meat eating is immoral. We've evolved past the need to eat meat.

>>5109546
Wrong. And wrong.

Its just the fall of india all over again. A few rich priests realize they can leverage the common religious belief in the virtue of self sacrifice to pose as even more high and mighty and dont personally need meat because their peasants can provide for them what their strength lacks. It works for one or two generations but soon they’re too weak to manage and the poor are imitating them and weakening even further due to not having access to the same resources needed to partially fill a massive hole in the diet the human body is obliged to partake in. Society collapses. By generation two children are shorter, dumber, and have weaker bones. Brain size stops being selected for because the brain needs meat to grow. Genes for larger bodies pass as well. Maybe eventually the humans devolve into a hominid again.

The devolution is a slow process that starts in the poorer populations but it’s already visibly happening.

Veganism also isnt moral, and never has been. To be vegan is to adopt a false religion that believes humans and animals are moral equals. You are therefore obligated to murder a human being to protect some number of cattle.

Only upper class vegans can manage to be only a little malnourished/bear to be a bit stunted and humans are undeniably a carnivorous species.

What now, carnists?

370 billion crickets are farmed for food every year. Scientists have discovered they may feel pain

In our new study, published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B, we searched for behavioural signs of pain in house crickets, one of the most widely farmed insects. After applying heat to an antenna, we found that crickets didn’t just reflexively flinch and recover. They nursed the harm, returning again and again to groom the affected site, much as we rub a burned hand.

We tested 40 male and 40 female crickets, each experiencing three conditions in random order: a hot probe to a single antenna (65°C, to activate damage receptors but not cause lasting injury), the same probe unheated, or no contact at all.

We filmed their behaviour for ten minutes. Observers scoring the footage did not know which treatment any animal had received.

The results were clear. After the hot probe, crickets were more than twice as likely to groom the affected antenna compared to controls, and spent roughly four times longer doing so.

Could this simply reflect general disturbance rather than targeted care? Unlikely: grooming was directed specifically at the heated side, not spread evenly across both antennae as it was after gentle touch or no contact.

But we have shown crickets respond to harm in a way that satisfies a key criterion many scientists and philosophers use to infer pain: flexible, directed self-protection. Combined with the knowledge that crickets possess damage receptors, can learn to avoid harms, and respond less to injury under morphine, the weight of evidence for an inner life is growing.

The practical stakes are real. Hundreds of billions of farmed insects are slaughtered each year by freezing, boiling and baking. Pesticides kill trillions more, optimised for lethality with no consideration of potential suffering.

>>5130736
kinda gross that people are eating crickets

>>5094243
It's okay. It's a slightly darker version of chicken. Like the lightest cut of meat on a cat would be comparable to the leg meat of an older chicken. Also with a slight cat aroma of the type you can smell if you open their mouth and take a sniff.
