Photos depicting humans and animals reversing roles

Problem is, I don't think a lot of these animal sympathizers realize,
the wild is a lot different than advocating from the safety where your life isn't constantly in danger.



These animals aren't friendly. They don't care about anyone's altruistic cause that brings meaning to their time on this Earth.

I'd say the majority of "ethical vegans" would agree that it isn't necessarily the killing of animals they are against, but what they are against is the unethical means of animal agriculture production that are in practice in present day.

I understand their are extremisits that believe they shouldn't be killed under any circumstance. But I don't think they reflect the overall sentiments of people who follow a vegan diet.

That is just my assumption. Don't know if there is any hard data to back that up.

Im all for voicing your opinion and all that but EVERYTHING is offensive nowadays and EVERYONE is super sensitive and because its 2016 you are allowed to make it a big deal, and people will. Probably not even because they wanna fight for the cause but because its the "in" thing to brag to your friends about. Damn hipsters.

This is the worst possibly way to go about it. It happens all he times. There's a huge push in one direction (in am this case it's this super sensitive PC culture) so people instinctively push back in the opposite direction.

I agree, some of the PC business has gone a bit too far, but there are times when that type of reaction is warranted.

It seems like people are generally pushing back against anything PC, just for the sake of quelling this new generation who seems to be up in arms when Beyoncé uses the term Becky.

Just be mindful that you don't fall on the wrong side of history when you're trying to be anti-PC. There are still issues that matter and are 100% valid, like the topic of his thread.

To just dismiss the issues with the way we produce food comes off as super ignorant and about as close to a stereotypical spoiled, over consuming laissez-faire attitude American stereotype.

We're so far removed from where our food comes from, it's pretty disgusting. To use that as a way to justify the documented abuse of these animals is just flat out wrong.

So enjoy that steak the next time you eat it, but also acknowledge what it took to put it there and how little a part you played in the process.

Man wen i was little i lived wit my lolo on a farm.

He gave me this lil piglet and i named the lil fella pot pot.
he was like my pet.
Pigs have hella personality and you become kinda bonded like a dog.

After a while pot pot got big and they took him out back and stuck a knife in his throat and i watched him die slowly as the blood seeped out of his neck.

He wasnt really making any noise after that first puncture through his flesh but his hind legs were kind of twitching rapidly like he was trying to run away from death.

I remember him looking at me watching him die.
Had that face like tom hanks in saving private ryan like "earn this"
****** me up.

Ive killed chickens and ducks that i also raised from birth and its gruesome. You gotta tie a string round their neck to a nail stretch em out and chop their head off. Same animal you was petting and holding in your palms wen they were a baby.

And i love animals so it really hurts. The only way ive found that makes it acceptable to me is that theyre dying so we can live.

thats a noble death i think.
And the hard simple truth u gotta accept is thats just the way that **** works.
i mean a pig....lion.etc ..they would eat you no dams.

now hunting for sport.....furs...etc.
Thats unforgivable.

pot pot was hella good tho.

and i rarely use the term hella.

Yea humans are omnivores so flesh is definitely in our diet..but...


What part of the evolutionary process forces us to bull fight? dog fight? chicken fight? human sacrifice? killing for sport? and slaughterhouse abuse?


The point of this thread is that humans treat their prey worse than other animals do, people seem to be missing that point.

While tgere are other animals that have shown malicious intent with preys and towards other species I.E. bald eagles....we are by far the worst, we have the logic to know better that hunting for sport just isn't cool, that our cattle while is part of our diet, they should have a quick and painless death in the process, that we no longer live in a time when wearing animals skins was simply necessary to stay alive and warm....our very logic has brought us to a point where we can demonstrate sympathy towards other beings....except roaches **** roaches.
 
I really don't feel like getting into this but in some programs like animal science/food science. If a slaughter house on campus there is a class that shows students the humane way of killing cows for example so they don't suffer as much.

But overall us humans don't give a ****.

These rhinos likely attacked because they felt threatened and/or they had their young nearby and feared for their safety. Rhinos don't have the critical reasoning capabilities that humans do to think "oh hey these people must be tourists just exploring our habitat"

I highly doubt those rhinos went out there looking for an SUV to takedown so they could use its seat cushions as pillows and tires as floaties.

Agreed. That's just about as noble a death I think any living being could have, and so many of us take it for granted because we hit supermarkets and just pick up conveniently packaged pieces of food.

I think more people who eat meat should experience hunting or farming to gain a true appreciation for the animals that die for us.

It's just another thing we take for granted because we're so far removed from it.

But yeah, killing animals is definitely necessary for our species to live on. It's just a natural part of life. Just can't respect dismissing the issue the way it has been dismissed by some in this thread.

Yeah, I didn't really get the point of posting that either. I think we're all aware that a lot of animals aren't naturally friendly when you step into their territory.

Doesn't justify how inhumanely they're treated a lot of the time.
 
I do think some hunting is necessary to prevent overpopulation. With animals that pose an actual threat to us on land that we generally share with them, I think hunting for sport has some validity.

I use the term very loosely though, because it's not an excuse.

Yea "make America great again", damn liberals and their books, and college educations and caring about stuff. It's like you know back in the day when people tried to convince Americans that owning certain melanin gifted creatures didn't deserve to suffer, I'm sure they were the hipsters of their time.


Everyone so sensitive # race card #Mississippi #Theconfederateflagisabouthistory


Apparently empathy for animals was invented in 2016, who knew.

:lol:

My whole point was EVERYONE is on some type of movement when they arent even educated about it. I have friends who are super pro Bernie and if I ask them why would you choose Bernie over the other candidates they cant even give me a single good reason. You wanna be political all of a sudden and cant even explain how Bernie is gonna impact your life better than Clinton or Trump? Take that Bernie 2016 hat off.

People wanna feel involved, but wont do anything about it. Ask a vegan why they are vegan and 75% of the time its some half assed excuse. A close friendof mine turned vegan cause she saw a couple of far fecthed videos on FB and all of a sudden anything that hsd eyes scares her, yet she cant let pernil go cause thats her "grandmas favorite food" that she adopted. Please. In that case she she believe in aliens and bigfoot by now as well if she just wants to watch FB vids.


I am 100% for HUMANELY killing animals and having them in acceptable conditions in slaughterhouses, but im not gonna go about starting riots and whatnot about it either. It falls on deaf ears, and yall know it.

And no ones thinking about how your steak was treated before it got to your plate. Thats just weird now.

No weirder than the way we get our food now. If you really think about the natural order of things, how odd is it that we head to a big building to pick up whatever part of an animals body our heart desires.

It's necessary to feed a population this big. I concede that. But we shouldn't lose touch of the fact that a living being had to die for us in the process.

We've become so far removed from the process of hunting and gathering, that we take it for granted. Sounds like most don't even care where it comes from.

Always been against trophy hunting and wearing animal products

Wish animals were treated better prior to becoming food but I'll admit I don't lose sleep over it.

Vegans don't bother me just the ones who feel the need to tell everyone

This, human beings had far more respect and empathy for nature and animals back when we actually had to kill animals with our own hands. Now we just get psycho butchers to do it for us.

Now everyone is just psycho butchers. Great. :lol:

That doesn't excuse the fact that we pay a select few people to deal with one of the most important aspects of our lives. Just desensitizes us to the process to the point that you see people dismissing the issue altogether.

It's sad that we live in a society that even remotely caring about another living being is met with resistance. :smh:

It really is disgusting. Like I know there are a lot of trolls on this website and dudes like to rustle jimmies just cause they think it's funny. But ninjahood in his heart of hearts is actually like that. He really is just a piece of ****
 
Like we can't pull up videos of lions and hyenas going to war constantly. Lions snap their necks just to make an example.

Seals rape penguins. Seriously.
 
What's the argument about this time?

It seems like Ninja and Anton will always be on different sides of any topic, even when they are in fact on the same side of the argument.

So you don't see any difference between us as human beings and them as wild animals?

You can't just oversimplify things to fit your argument.

It's interesting how life was here long before and will be here after us but for some reason we disconnect ourselves from it all. We love thinking we are better than everything on earth, including the earth itself. :smh:
 
sckid20 is lowkey the most interesting man in the world. From his aunt makes lumpia stories to the (RIP) his homie potpot novel, Then he got those genius ideas like putting lube on fault lines to reduce the damage caused by earthquakes.

Folks are over simplifying humans by comparing us to animals.

That's the point. We aren't wild animals. We should hold ourselves to a higher standard than them as opposed to using examples of their brutality to excuse our own.
