Huh, I didn’t know that.
Well you succeeded :)
That seems to be a common description of them by the community. Thanks for adding your thoughts!
Yeah I had forgotten about those.
I agree it could have been worse. I think it deserves around a 6/10 for watchable but not good.
Thanks for clearly reframing my question Cowbee :) not just saying this doesn’t matter for Marxist thought but why.
Got it, thank you Davel
Same! I’m doing it as I watch my infant eat remotes lol
That’s very clearly define. Thanks for linking that!
Btw why didn’t I see that? Is my instance not federated with theirs?
Thanks for that differentiation
Thanks for taking the time to explain :)
lol! That’s a fun alternative which is kind of already the story! Minus the son of man part
I’m on my phone so I will try to respond best I can.
Thank you for asking me this moral question and sharing this personal story.
First of all you were 7 so you hold zero responsibility to this.
Secondly, I’m not sure putting a beloved animal to rest versus eating it has a moral choice. If they died by natural causes I think both are fine. Would we ask the same question about a house pet like a cat though? I personally do not think I could bring myself to eat a loved house just because it died. I also grew up with animals and your question hits home. For my pets I have buried them versus put them on the bone hill but I also don’t know how many labor hours would go into burying a horse. I assume that would be a lot.
As someone who thinks not wasting and freeganism is a good choice but not mandatory, I think eating anything unexpired that would otherwise be thrown away or roadkill is morally okay to consume. So I think eating the horse would have been morally okay but I don’t think putting it to rest is wrong in anyway.
I frequently eat vegetarian food left over from my immediately family that they would not eat otherwise but even know I slightly feel weird about consuming most meats even if it will be wasted otherwise.
So I personally think there is nothing for you too feel bad about. I do think it’s a very sad story though. I know how it feels to lose a family pet and I’m sure such a horse with such a good temperament must have lived a good happy life :)
I hope I treated your story with the proper respect needed!
great point!
