@Timcanrun @ReuelWilliams3 I understand your point now. I do think that the comparison to human-based tragedies is a bit gauche and there are fundamental differences in the current needs and behaviors of humans vs animals to make comparison confusing. Their arguments can stand without it. Thank you

@slaychael @ReuelWilliams3 …The fact that an animal gets killed must be the same tragedy as a human getting killed (even if the killer isn’t “evil” because they are impaired). So morally, we should be preventing animals from killing animals, even if they don’t understand what they are doing.

Very dumb. You think eating meat is ok because they aren’t human. Slave owners thought it was ok to torture black people because they aren’t *white*. The moral circle has then since extended beyond whiteness and it will extend beyond humanity.

Ok but a cow is categorically not a human so it’s not the same issue. 100 years from today they will not discover that a cow is a human.

@Timcanrun @ReuelWilliams3 Is that his argument? Can you point me to that (genuinely)? I assumed that his argument was predicated on the idea that humans, as morally conscious beings, have the capability/capacity to empathise with animals and thus seek food that doesn’t necessitate mass-production of meat

@slaychael @ReuelWilliams3 Yeah, he dodged the question. The premise of his argument is: killing animals is wrong because animals are morally equivalent to humans. I’m asking him to follow that to its logical conclusion. If animals are morally equivalent to humans, it doesn’t matter WHO does the killing

@Moon_River05 @KensingtonRoyal @sueziad May I ask why? Tā moko has been practiced for a thousand years. I am wondering what about it *today* makes it unsuitable or “stupid”? Particularly when she comes from a country where this is a socially and culturally acceptable tattoo?

@Timcanrun @ReuelWilliams3 He didn’t say it was ok for animals to do it, he just said it was amoral and an unfortunate reality of nature. If a disabled person was in that position where killing someone was necessary for their own survival, it wouldn’t be “okay” but it wouldn’t make the disabled person evil

@Red_Mage23 Everyone else’s great points and also perhaps more importantly it would be very ugly and I wouldn’t like to be named “shee” when it could be spelled in an infinitely cooler way

@palmerccio @megievalist @myaurorahong I don’t think Megan is defending, the verse says “whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Which is basically christian framework to your point (that watching other people for sexual grat is cheating).

@maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae (These links are things I have been reading recently. They provide some context to my belief which is that the porn industry is nearly wholly exploitative of both its ‘actors’ and audiences).

@slaychael @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae It’s literally the same way YouTube works. Have some oversight on your platform and ban bad actors and/or send their info to the authorities. I don’t mean to be obtuse here, but you can say the same thing about literally every video of people online.

@maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae —block buster versus the free-for-all that online pornography serves as. The question from there is how to overcome this if we can, whether it’s theough more comprehensive regulations or banning online platforms in their entirety. But that wasn’t my initial point

@maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae The difference with films imo is that there is a process for obtaining consent and the inclusion of workplace safety regulations that categorically does not exist across porn due to how it’s distributed online. I think it’s a lot less likely a trafficked girl will appear in a—

@maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae All my first point says is that the sex act is actually physically occurring. Though one of my issues with porn is that consent is always “assumed”. There’s no guarantee that what you are watching is ethically or consensually produced bar some exceptions

@M4YBEIMAL1VE @maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae Are you suggesting sex acts aren’t actually occurring in pornography? Again, there is a difference between events actually occurring but perhaps being choreographed (porn) vs something that is made to look happen but doesn’t (sfx)

@maybe_almost_ @pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae I think a difference is firstly that horror movies aren’t real, and secondly feminists have repeatedly and consistently been pointing out how specific archetypes and stereotypes within the horror genre exist alongside and perpetuate societal biases (e.g, the virgin, the whore).

@pinkbarbiebrush @madsdanae wtf is this argument? If that’s true then horror movies normalize much more disgusting things than sexual violence.

Dude who hates Nolan’s adaptation of Homer not because it’s inaccurate or unfaithful but because he agrees with Plato that Homer is a corruptive influence on the youth.

And to be clear none of them want to be there. They are just following orders. It’s a big reason why I hate why I hate Trump so much. Their lives are at risk , not for any just cause. For Israel.
