You haven’t gotten any downvotes, and your comment is eight hours old. You don’t need to be a martyr to make a point. You’re right that the farming industry is cruel.
I wasn’t talking about the potential future downvotes from that comment. I was talking about all the past downvotes that I already got on my original comment.
As an aside, I’m pretty sure that not any amount of downvotes can grant someone martyrhood status.
Imagine you go over to someone’s house, and as soon as you walk in, you get overwhelmed by the smell of feces. You walk into the living room, and there is a dog in a cage that it barely fits into. The cage is so tight around its body that it is unable to turn around. You realise there are inches of fecal sludge caked into the bottom of the entire cage. Upon close inspection, you realise that the teeth of the dog have been removed. You are told that by removing the teeth, it can’t bite. You ask how it doesn’t get so sick that it dies, and you are shown a handful of pills that it is given that fight off its infections and diseases.
You are absolutely disgusted, and you rightfully say so. The response of the owner is this, “This is the same tired argument of ‘Nobody can have pets!’ That always gets brought up.”
This is exactly what you just did.
I never said anything about anyone not being allowed to eat meat, but you have been so conditioned that whenever anyone points out how bad factory farms are, you immediately try to defend them by acting like the only possible way to eat meat is to do it that way. This is not because you are an idiot, it is just because of how clever and motivated the bastards that are doing this to animals are. They are able to convince good-meaning, kind people like yourself to fight on their defense whenever anyone tries to chalange them.
There are many people, now, and all throughout history, that eat meat in a way that is not deplorable, but that way doesn’t make large factory farms rich, it doesn’t put more money into the billionaires pockets. So, they recruited you, and many others to work for them. They are very smart, and they succeeded.
By the way, I have no idea how you’ve taken anything Isaid to mean that I think it is OK to machine gun dolphins if you also eat chickens. I never said anything remotely like that. I agree whole-heartedly that that is, indeed, a very dumb take.
Yeah, I would be unable to respond in any meaningful way if I were trying to argue your side as well. I know why I’m downvoted. I’m downvoted because I point out a disgusting habit that many people have and they hate to think about. That’s fine though, if I can get through to a single person, it is worth it. Think hard about which side you are on here, it’s not a good side at all. Deep down you know that. Sometimes anger is the appropriate response. You’d be angry too if you developed a moral compass.

You got down votes for shoehorning the same tired “but you eat meat!” argument that always gets brought up.
I guess using that logic we must think machine gunning dolphins is fine if we also eat chickens or something, what a dumb take.
That’s why you were down voted, you probably picked up a bunch more when you complained about them.

Whole lotta angry paragraphs for someone that couldn’t figure out why they were down voted, you should work on that.
