We talking about Tyson dumping 18.5 billion gallons of contaminated wastewater in 2022?

This toxic stew includes animal parts and byproducts like blood and feces, pathogens like E. coli and Enterococcus, and nitrogen and phosphorus that can deplete oxygen in bodies of water.

You don't get to the top without killing more animals each year than the total number of humans that have ever existed 💪😎😤

industrializing meat production should have always been banned - we should just have allowed livestock in cities

Oh yikes, zoonotic pathogens rejoice! We can barely deal with our own poop not making other humans sick.

We do, it's called the dog diet. If you can't afford to raise your own there's always elwood's! https://www.elwooddogmeat.com/

Fuck meat eaters unironically, your precious (inhumane and disgusting) meat farms have absolutely fucked the environment. Thanks for that

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Praise the lord.

Fuck all humans for breeding to the point where meat farming is necessary. Eating animals isn't the problem, it's the SCALE at which we do it. Put blame where it's due

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Factory farming is extremely cost-efficient, so I don't think the free market would give you anything else regardless of how many people there are. Laws and environment tax would.

Lab grown meat is more efficient, but some place are already outlawing it before it'seven available commercially... So I'm not too sure about the direction we're going.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

It will be more efficient eventually, just not yet. The technology isn't mature yet. But as you've noted, those "pro-free market" Floridians and Alabamans want to ban it, because global elites and eating bugs or something.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I'd like to see some numbers about lab grown meat being cost efficient. Fuck the meat industry, I just want hard numbers.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Relax, even those places will turn around when it becomes commercially available and cheaper than regular meat.

It is nothing but a political statement to draw in conservatives.

BS, it's not necessary at all

True, humanity is a goddamn cancer I’m glad you understand

Jokes aside, your opinion is bullshit. Meat is not a requirement it is a PREFERENCE

[-] [email protected] -3 points 1 month ago

You all motherfuckers know deep in your hearts that humanity can’t survive this shit without a couple billion dying off. It’d be better if those couple billion were never born.

There’s no sustainable living without sustainable reproduction. But that’s even more taboo than everyone going vegan/vegetarian.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Damn, Thanos! We are overpopulated, I agree. But human numbers have always (and I do mean always, as long as we've been able to track it) adjusted to the sustainability of their environment given all but the most dire of economic factors that might affect that. Right now, we're seeing a rapid decline in children being born throughout the world. Just because it doesn't happen on a particular time table doesn't mean it's not correcting itself.

Ecofascism is a legit problem, people in the US would rather have unsustainable lifestyles than not commit genocide.

[-] [email protected] -1 points 1 month ago

The definition of fascism isn’t „things I don’t like”.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Name 5 scholarly works you've read on fascism, or 3 on ecofascism specifically.

In other words: I have a lot of knowledge about this shit. The overpopulation myth is tied to fascism at the hip. You've integrated fascist propaganda into your worldview if you think overpopulation is the issue.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I've never heard about the overpopulation myth is tied to fascism. Got any more information or sources on this? Cheers, bud.

[-] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

Any ideology that incorporates vying for genocide is pretty close to fascism.

[-] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago

You can just Google "overpopulation ecofascism" and the first few results in normal and scholar mode are pretty good (the former for well cited intros, the latter for more in depth stuff on the topic)

[-] [email protected] -2 points 1 month ago

This. Tell people to not eat meat and hear the cries of agreement. Tell people to stop having kids and all of a sudden you're another Hitler.
