You didn't make anyone uncomfortable, you made yourself look like a fool.
Quote:But seriously, what's wrong with treating animals a little better?
Quote:What's wrong with giving a fair picture of the farm and meat industries?Oh, it's a fair picture. Besides, I'm not speaking of the industry as a who;e in the first place. Only the corporate owned companies tend to act in this way it seems.
Quote:This is why I don't take your opinion 100& seriously in this aspect. It's simply a reality and if you wish to undermine it then you are part of the problem.
Quote:Why, because you struggle to account for your own biases? That video is propaganda, the worst of the worst of cases complied for pure shock factor, to bypass the human ability to deliberate effectively on the issue at hand and instill biases that taint judgement in favor of their position.Uhhmm... I'm pretty sure that there's a problem being addressed here through this video. It's a problem and it is biased. Biased towards the side of justice.
Quote:It's a dirty trick, no context, no statistics, exactly like showing a compilation of drunken violence and then arguing from that to vilify everyone who drinks. Yeah the animals in that video were poorly treated, but that does not represent more than a small fraction of the industry as a whole.I have no statistics at the moment but even this minority needs to be fought against. What's wrong with that?
Quote:If you'd called the factory farm owners "cocksuckers" you might have been able to save face, despite showing a propaganda film, but to pass the brunt to [b]everyone[i] who consumers meat is absurd.Yes I am sorry about the cock sucking thing.
Quote:Here's a challenge for you - Before you decide to condemn people for eating meat, why don't you provide the basis for your self-righteous moral judgements?Torture=Bad
Quote:Careful now. He hasnt condemned anyone. Mind that you read the title to the topic when he posts "delicious" in it as well.
I think he is just disgusted at the system, not the omnivorous habits.
If I am correct, then please respond with a smile
Hey look! Someone that doesn't take things out of context! It's a miracle!
