  • Yeah man you’re so enlightened for staying ignorant of the moral cost of your recreational dietary choices.

    Why do chuds immediately start writing like they’re penning some missive in the east India trading company the moment they’re called out? Is it a genetic memory of chuddiness?

    There is courage in watching death you cause or ignore, and there is also courage in watching the death of those who you are the witness and advocate for, or you know being there for someone’s last moments.











  • The entire moral foundation of leftism is is that we ought to arrange the world such that suffering is not inflicted on others for the gain of the few.

    If you are unconcerned with the horror of carnism you are only concerned with the rights of those you deem sufficiently similar to you based on arbitrarily selected metrics, the reciting of which has a curious tendency to make someone sound like a Nazi: intelligence (as defined by an ability to peform certain specific tasks rather arbitrarily selected), or appearance, or genetics.

    Either we are concerned with suffering or we are not. The practice of continually and regularly brutalising other creatures we know feel and suffer as much as we can know any other human does harms us, slaughterhouse workers suffer PTSD and display rates of violence above the normal. There are reasons that Nazis copied factory farming. It trains us in the process of dehumanisation (even that term is loaded), it harms the people involved, it harms the animals, and it gets you practicing that it is simply ok not to care or change anything if the treats you get by doing so are sufficiently enjoyable.

    Wanna take a look? https://www.farmtransparency.org/videos/frbqvwrjoo

    I haven’t watched that video, not sure how horrifying it is. That site has lots of videos of electrocution and captive bolt gun if you’d like to see how humane they are. Personally I would not euthanize myself using any of these techniques but maybe you would and thus maybe you will think they’re humane.

    The answer as to why, is as all terrible things money. Throughput is high, CO2 stays where you put it and it’s cheap, nobody cares if pigs spend their last moments drowning and panicking.

    Pigs have very thick skulls, they are powerful and rather noble creatures when not locked immobile in a pen and overfed (not much difference between domestic pigs and boars really, they grow large and hairy if you let them roam wild). Bolt guns and electrocution have an extremely high rate of failure on them.

    Edit: everyone always asks for proof, never looks at it, and downvotes it.

    Why ask, why be dishonest about whether you care?


  • Vegan to leftist: Hey you know that pig that you’re eating part of probably died screaming in a gas chamber? Are you ok with that?

    Leftist: omg stop being so aggressive don’t you know there are reasons why I can’t go vegan?

    Also that leftist: You have florp installed on your computer? Don’t you know that one of the developers of florp made some posts on twitter saying they support Israel? Do you like fascism? What is your problem?

    Please make it make sense.





  • I use bazzite on my BC250 console but bazzite’s package management is horrible lmao.

    It’s good for something you install and never touch but not adequate for general purpose computing.

    Pacman is an amazing package manager, dnf is probably better but inertia has me prefer pacman. The rest suck
