I’ll pass.

You wanna share your opinion as it differs to mine, I’m happy to engage with that. But I am absolutely not interested in whatever tit for tat, nit-picky debate that wants to be.

I’m saying as long as the consumption of animals and animal products is part of the most viable means for satisfying the nutritional debt of the human species, the human psychological need to distinguish between pets and livestock is necessary.

Do we need, or is it right to keep pets? is its own set of moral questions.

I agree with you in principle, but until at which point we have the technological and production capabilities in place to fully feed the planet without the need for livestock and other animal sources of nutrients, the distinction has to exist. We may have gotten to the point of being technologically capable but the human population is very much reliant on animal sources to sustain itself. And so the distinction is necessary. I’m not arguing that it’s right or just or morally correct. But it’s where we are and what is required to continue existing as a species.

And by no means am I saying that those animals we see as livestock don’t deserve to be treated with care and respect while they are alive. I just believe the distinctive categories of pets and livestock are an unfortunate requirement of our current situation.

People who treat pets as property are not good people. This guy gets it.

Gods I miss TFTS so bad

Reminds me of the cgp grey line about the CA/US border:

“Alas the perfect spherical planar intersection, it is not.”

Yes but not when it’s something that’s basically just a stock photo. Ill take a big ass watermark across real faces over slop any and everyday.

That’s some good shit right there

The Linux to Transfem pipeline is real!

Honestly it feels almost dangerous to call the people in the bottom photo idiots. They know exactly what they’re fucking doing and the cruelty and power are the entire fucking point. This is why Idiocracy can’t actually happen, if the entire population’s intelligence suffered that much we would all be dead long before we got to the world of the film. These people are evil tyrants who are systematically and ruthlessly destroying the fabric of our government and country, not hapless buffoons with good intentions.

Tell me you haven’t watched or really understood Idiocracy without telling me you haven’t watched or really understood Idiocracy.

Oh you mean the Torment Nexus? From the book ‘Don’t Build the Torment Nexus’?

A far superior version of the format.

Hey! You stay away from her! She messaged me first!

Seconded, is one of the best American historical dramas.

It’s called Hardware (1990)

I mean not as much anymore since the end of the shuttle program. Huntsville is where a lot of vehicle production but a lot of that is private companies like ULA, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, etc. with govt contracts and subsidies. There’s only about 7k direct nasa employees at Marshall.

You’re so right, fixed
