The moment you realise calves are better equipped for winter than you are.

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

My calves always get cold in the winter. But that's probably because I wear winter jorts

[–] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I love my winter jorts. No problem with cold when your calves are big enough to create their own weather patterns.

cows are friends, not food.

[–] SuiXi3D@kbin.social 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

In the very least, we should be ensuring that any animal bred for consumption should be given the absolute best life possible, not crammed into spaces like sardines and forced to exist in their own shit all their lives.

they taste better when they've had a happy life

[–] boomzilla@programming.dev -3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

So you must taste greeeeat despite all the antibiotics and microplastics in your body.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

what? what are you trying to say here

[–] m12421k@iusearchlinux.fyi 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're asking for permission to commit some jolly cannibalism 🥰

[–] this_1_is_mine@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Must be one of them German cannibals...

[–] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're trying to say this is a bs argument

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

but it is a true fact. theres a huge difference in quality between the basic slaughterhouse meat and full life lived running around and eating what they are supposed to eat meat

[–] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For fks sake, the detachment from reality in this comment is astonishing. Would it be ok if I raised you as meat and then slaughtered you when you where 15 years old if I guarantee you that you would have a decent life in the meantime? Of course not, it would still be pretty fucked up.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

its not a detachment from reality its actually completely based in reality, the statement being nothing more than quality of taste and a true fact, again completely based in reality. we all get it you think eating animals is wrong but my comment is not meant as some sort of statement on anything more than quality of food

[–] w2tpmf@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I have zero doubts that people would be delicious.

So what's stopping you

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Problem is good life isn't economically sustainable.

[–] Cosmicomical@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's what they are trying to make you believe. Good life is not sustainable, either for the cows or for you

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right right, as long as you don't have to do anything :)

[–] PixellatedDave@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Nah I just don't touch animals or animal products as much as possible now. Easy

[–] haui_lemmy@lemmy.giftedmc.com 4 points 1 year ago

Tune in for more corporate media jokes tonight at 8 pm.

[–] BeerMedic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Very tasty friends.

[–] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

Moo body cared who I was until I put on the mask.

[–] JoeTheSane@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Welcome, all, to the first post on Lemmy I have ever saved.

these appear to be veal crates, these are baby cows that have been taken from their mothers to feed the demand for cow's milk; a horrifically cruel practice. make 2024 the year you align your values with your purchases!

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The pens on both of these (but especially the left) are far too large to be veal crates, which don’t allow calves to turn around.

[–] spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

Or to stand up. It’s about restricting muscle use.

[–] aubertlone@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Really wish people would stop spouting random bullshit.

This is so clearly not a veal crate. To be clear, I don't even eat any beef, pork, red meat in general.
