    Can images of animal abuse please be labeled as such and get a NSFW blur please?

        That’s how the meat industry thrives, for sure. However you can protest against things and also not want to see them uncensored on your feed

        Do I need to look at images of dead Palestinian kids too? Does wanting to go about my day in a measure of peace mean I don’t really care?

      Putting your head in the sand is not a good way to engage with the world.

      This is what your beef comes from, for example. (from wikipidia fyi)

      Ether accept that like nature itself we are often monstrous, or do something about it (and be laughed at most likely).

        I’m literally eating vegan nuggets right now, but thanks for being an ass.

          Oh, I am not vegan. I just hate when people try and sanitize their view of the world.

              Do you think the people working with livestock are vegan?

              I worked with cows (a dairy operation) as a young worker. I like cows, but I also know that they don’t really exist in the wild as we know them.

                I don’t think that, no, but I still can’t comprehend what it must be like to live inside a brain that can be so desensitised to this cruelty.

                  ? Its life, its often both wonderful and cruel.

                  I have a hard time understanding what the inside of a mind that can not engage with reality as it is is like.

                  I am a big proponent of everyone at some point butchering their own food at least once.

                    To describe someone who has seen the cruelty and decided they won’t stand for it as “not engaging with reality as it is” is deranged lmao

          That is my very point. It is not censored in wikipedia (and it should not be), why would it need that here?

          If you want to ban me over it please do, but I don’t think science (memes or otherwise) and censorship are compatible.
