Well i'd like to open an discussion about our unethical/unequal treatment of animals, but be warned I don't want any contributors saying stupid things like
animals are dumb so its okay to treat them bad (well then we should treat mentally ill/handicapped people bad aswell if you have that "logic")
It is proven that animals have are much more intelligent than we suspected they were, they can feel fear/pain/distress like we all do, so when you treat them wrong it will be the same consequences as with humans,
From mine perspective, in todays society we have come far (big progression), and by far I mean we have gotten many other ways of eating and getting the right nutritions without having to kill the animal, or depending on some animals milk/eggs
Thats why its inexcuseable to eat animals, or participate with the cruel animal industry (forced labour/forced pregnancy/abuse)..
When we have other alternatives I mean,
Those who eat meat the most are wealthy countries, isn't that ironic?
We also are known for our heartdiseases because of the big consumption of meat, and bad diets in general,
If you really doubt that you can live without animals, look around for proven scientific researches when it comes to nutritions, you can get all the nutritions you get out of animals elsewhere, in plants/fruit and so on...
But sure then it will demand more of your diet, you have think more of where to get these things individually than relying on dairy products/meat to give the nutritions the "easy" way,
Then again even meat/dairy consumers need vegetables/fruit in order to live a "healthy" life,
Anyways this is my path I know everyone has their ways, but thats why we are to discusss this, im curious about if there are vegetarians/vegans on this forum as well
And if you still eat meat, its not like I look at you with disgusts necessary,
Of course not! but I demand those who participate in the unfair treatment of animals should be aware and think of where their food is from, thats all I ask for...
Well I know what ive said sounds also political, but I mean the unethicalness through how we eat animals, it can always be improved as how we treat them before their deaths, but id always say leading someone to death is always a horrible crime no matter what,
But its easier to agree on that we have to treat them better before we make them our food right?
So let out your thoughts people, and we will see how far we will get this topic,
Id like to contribute to this topic with links with facts and so on about the meat/dairy industry and also about vegetarian/vegan lifestyles if people out there are curious,
But we will see as this topic goes, if there is enthusiasm/interest for such..
I personally also think its great if people will decrease their meat consumption, because any effort will always make a difference, so its wrong to think im on a war against everyone not being "pure" vegetarians/vegans, its just id prefer it that way
By just decreasing your habits you would also contribute to decreasing the amount of suffering, improve your own health, pollute less (as dairy products/meat industry is one of the most polluting industries out there)
You gain all of this by just lowering the amount of meat/dairy products you consume
!!
Btw, im sorry if I don't sound too clear and seem confusing about these things
