I think it's a relevant topic that was worded in a sensationalist and heavy-handed manner by the OP.

I care about the produce I use when cooking - that includes whether it was humanely sourced. Some people say humane is incompatible with any animal product used in cooking.

If I had to kill a chicken I wouldn't be able to do it.
But I would have no problem keeping then in a large enclosure for eggs so long as they have enough room to move around.

Even if the cages were bigger, they still would have died a fiery death. Op is insinuating that factory farming makes chickens catch fire.

Though I agree with you on the humane part, I have no problem killing and eating my prey. I've killed rabbits, chickens, deer, and boar, and I ate them all. I think wild is the most humane way of all. But I also think people shouldn't be so disconnected from their food source that they won't kill something that they will eat. But I'm also not going to force it on you, that's your thing.

I wouldn't be able to kill and eat my dog though. I'd starve first.

'Bio' chicken farms are sometimes even worse, we had 2 chickens who weren't caught at a bio farm, they're basically trampling and crushing each other in those farms, and the chicken who weren't caught are being caught by some peeps who want to give the chicks a happy last few years.

I think you need to learn what the word "humane" means, first of all.

>having or showing compassion or benevolence.

Showing compassion or benevolence would mean taking care of the animal and not killing it. It doesn't mean "killing it in a nice way," that's just what people tell themselves to not feel so guilty about what they're doing.

It's compassionate to kill an animal without causing suffering to it. Animals are not people. So they don't get human rights, but humane treatment. Your comparison is invalid and it all comes down to the fact that you don't like any animal killing at all, not the humane part of it.

>> No.5176927

>>5176915

>compassion is not a binary thing

Yes it absolutely is, and the reason you're denying it so hard is because you know you're wrong and what you're saying goes against basic morality. The only time killing can be considered humane is when an animal is in horrible, un-helpable mortal pain and you kill it to give it peace, and even then it's a subject of debate. Humane isn't the excuse you use to feed your fat ass with fried chicken.

You're mistaking compassion felt for compassion expressed. Then again, if you actually felt the compassion, wouldn't it influence your actions? Why is the chicken's life worth less to you than a chicken sandwich or whatever food you didn't need to eat? Most people are compassionate towards pets; they treat them well and take care of them, and yes they eventually die but generally not by their owner's hand except in a case like incurable sickness where death is the merciful option. I sat again, "humane slaughter" is a marketing term used in an effort to make people feel less guilty about doing bad things.

The difference is by default you're not a part of the chicken-killing industry. You consciously choose to support it, which isn't the same as not being a part of anything. The equivalent would be if you were in Ethiopa stealing food hand-outs from the starving children. By default you're not doing that, but to then start doing it and say you won't not do it because "you don't care enough" doesn't show sympathy. Likewise, if you choose to partake in chicken slaughter, you're expressing a lack of sympathy.

This is why I can never take a vegan seriously. This is their response to everything. It's backwards logic, they circular think around and come back to their own feelings, which is not an argument for anything, much less a rational conclusion.

Oh god. Here's the thing: Is factory farming bad? Yes.
Will people ever give a shit? no. The success of the fast food industry has proven beyond all doubt that people don't give a shit about where their food comes from, merely that it is covered in mayo and cheese. Furthermore, breeding of these animals has optimized them for efficiency. You grow a 4 pound chicken with 8 pounds of feed. That is fucking amazing. All this means is that all food animals, when they should be killed honestly and preferably by those who intend to eat them are no longer animals, they are just things that become food. This is true of people, too. You are not an individual, irreplaceable human soul, you are a fucking product valued according to the amount of money you can make someone by working for them. You are little better off. So be a vegan if it makes you happy. Or don't if you don't care. The fact that a lot of our way of life would have to be compromised in order for the cruelty to food animals to end stands in the way of anything else.

I don't understand why people consider the addition of meat "a balanced diet" when you can balance your diet without meat. It's like saying "a balanced diet of vegetables, fruits, meats, and candy."

There's a very simple way to work out whether you really believe this. Say somebody gets mauled by a bear and torn apart. That's a tragedy, right? It's something we want to avoid happening.

Now, make it an animal instead. Say a wild bird gets killed by a predator. Is that a tragedy? Do we want to stop it from happening?

No? No. Because you don't actually think that animals being killed is a bad thing, and we both know it.

I'll also just point out that any area of land that isn't farmed or cleared for some other reason, will be wild. It will have wild animals living in it - and dying in it. Every day there'll be more deaths. If you genuinely care about animal deaths then you'll understand that the kindest thing to do would be to clear all wild areas so that there are no more animals. Sure, there will be a whole bunch of deaths initially - but those are all animals that would end up dying anyway, and by taking them all out at once we'll have prevented them from breeding and producing more animals to suffer and die.

This is of course ridiculous, and I don't expect you or anyone else to actually hold this position. My point is simply that animal death is inevitable, and if hold any sort of environmental beliefs, that preserving nature is a good thing to do etc., then you have to accept on some level that animal suffering isn't really that big a deal.

>. Say somebody gets mauled by a bear and torn apart. That's a tragedy, right? It's something we want to avoid happening.
Depends. Timothy Treadwell got mauled by a bear after living with them for years, and the consensus was, "Well, he had it coming by putting himself in that situation."

If you're just walking down the street and get mauled by a bear, unfortunate. If you go out into bear territory to hunt them, and then get mauled in turn when your gun stops working, plenty would say that's not so tragic and the hunter had it coming.

>> No.5182176

>>5182166
On the other hand, even if a wild animal doesn't have it coming at all, and the predator is a total dick that just went and killed it out of nowhere, then the animal that's killed still doesn't get sympathy.

Unless you support the mass eradication of wildlife then you can't really have a problem with animal death.

Its not about the chickens. Factory farms are a public health threat to humans. Possibly the largest ever faced by humanity, equivalent to the great plagues.

Not as much chickens because they aren't mammals and share less native flora with humans, but ranches with millions of cows pose the threat. Animals can't live that close together in dirty conditions without them spreading disease to one another. Therefore we force on them more and more antibiotics. This is a Darwinian engine for the ultimate infectious bacteria. It wants to kill anything it can, and evolved specifically to be immune to antibiotics.

Food technology constantly caters to new forms of infectious/intoxicating bacteria. For example, Listeria monocytogenes didn't used to be a foodborne illness. Now that soft-ripened cheeses can be refrigerated, the perfect breeding ground has been created for Listeria. This has killed hundreds of children and pregnant women in the U.S.

Another example is E. coli O157:H7. It didn't used to be a threat, but cows are dirtier now, and Jack in the Box killed a few babies in the 80s while still adapting to this deadly organism.
