I hope photos of cooked animal flesh will one day be banned on all respectable Fediverse servers.

    I really wish Facebook would ban pictures of dead animals people have hunted. It’s horrible when it comes on your feed.

      Same for Instagram! People just sharing how much meat they eat as a family and how proud they are that it tastes good…

        Hate it. One friend of mine on Facebook I unfriended when they posted a bunch of geese he had shot, and when I objected he said “well I love ya but if it flies it dies”. Like WTF is wrong with your mind? How is that a sport?

    @nm @vegan

    In the past, I’ve requested CWs for meat. Because seriously it is pretty triggering for me to see a giant, bloody steak while I’m just casually scrolling through my timeline.

    @nm @vegan I hope so too, also just photos of dead animals, period. The pictures of douchebags with the animals they killed, etc.

    My local paper put a photo of a dead deer on the cover once for some story, and I still can’t understand how something like that makes it through a whole editorial process, but I guess that is the world we live in. For now. :hope:

    I’d love for that to happen. But I fear as long as eating animals is as accepted in society as it is today, this’ll take a long time.

    Fight the good fight though, my dude.

    How to self-marginalize as quickly as possible while making the least impact on society

        I suggest a social structure based on competition (wich has winners, thus increases injustice) decreases empathy, solidarity. This makes both animals and humans suffer. The incentive to change said structure (wich is always opposed to the work/risk it requires) is higher, the more it improves the chances of life getting better. Human life is more powerfull in that sense, compared to animal life. In other words: It is more likely to get humans to (severly) improve the world for humans. We are stronger wired for empathy with humans. Empathy with animals should not be a substitute for missing empathy with people. Does that make sense?

    Same, same. Whenever I go on YouTube on my phone, I always get slapped with at least one carcass ad. Like, no, thank you, I didn’t particularly want to see a mutilated animal corpse.
