I was permanently banned from the Reddit sub without recourse for posting this despite not breaking any rules. I'm slowly making the migration over thanks to such encouragement.

What's unhinged is people who think they have the right to confine, torture, exploit, rape, murder, and devour the flesh and/or secretions of other animals just because they're different.
Yeah I get that bugs are easy to dismiss because they're tiny, often obnoxious and treated like a nuisance, and less intelligent than other animals. But we're still talking about living beings who have their own subjective experience of life, individuality, and their own agenda. Like all animals they came into this life with us, not for us.
Commodifying living beings is unhinged. And even ignoring the moral side of things, having a preference for bee vomit is unhinged.
OP must be barlo
The subjective experience of insects is so unbelievably alien from that of humans that trying to anthropomorphize them or compare their existence to that of humans is actually insane. Just by existing as megafauna, you probably kill hundreds or thousands of insects a year.
no one is raping or torturing animals.
you should give a trigger warning when you link gore
>Your head must be deep in the sand if you think that’s true
this looks like a thought terminating cliche. have you considered addressing the substance of what i said, or is it all hand waving and shouting on your end?
Calls himself hacktheprisons, is oblivious to the fact that the biggest, cruellest prisons don't keep humans in.
Except I sent an entire documentary that precisely addressed the substance of what you said. You claimed that no one is raping and torturing animals. The documentary shows plenty of evidence to the contrary.
that video doesn't show rape. it does show some animal abuse, but that is not standard procedure.
no, it doesn't. and your snuff film sucks anyway.
>If your lifestyle choices cause suffering and atrocity, don’t you think you have a responsibility to at least be aware of what you’re complicit in
yes, but they don't, so it's no big deal.
Are you saying that you're vegan here?
no, i'm saying i understand linear time and causation.
