  90.  @raymundhofmann7661  Mate I've lived in india for the past 28 years. You seem to have no clue about the reality of how things work. You have just made for yourself a "convenient" patchwork of incomplete information, just so you can feel confident in having "understood it". You, as someone who lacks the frame of reference, are not going to make shit up and tell me "The mothers and the older women in the family have control over mating in society". Have you read a single line of Islamic history? Have you read anything about the Mughal Empire, or Hindu societal systems? Even in most sects of Christian societies women lack autonomy of their body. Fucks sake right now In the states there are so many nutjobs who just need some hollow catchphrase like "life at conception" to force women to have incest and rape babies among others. Are you even talking about the same world? You have an Extremely Basic understanding of how evolution works. It is clear from the terminology you are trying to use to make your point. "women will go out o f evolution", the fuck is that?? Evolution is simply another outcome of universal laws, like everything else. There's nothing special or random about it. Females of a specie don't simply "go out of evolution" randomly. And we're way beyond the point of it even being possible. Seeing how we've moved on from being asexually reproducing organisms. You're probably trying to rationalize some internal conflict you have toward your understanding and opinion on female humans. Or it could be something else. I'll simply let you know you lack the information to make a coherent decision on this matter, and you need to further study on the topic.

  104. Outside of human societies, where most "moral values" are presonalised, arbitrary and herd-serving. The act of eating a sentient organism's body is not immoral in itself, but what makes the participant moral or immoral, is whether they (a) needed to kill it for their own survival, and (b) whether the organism died of natural causes. No matter how you justify it, ultimately it is unnecessary, denies billions of sentient organisms a natural life and then has them killed and dismembered to satisfy the habits of humans. Doing something undesired to one sentient organism is objectively equivalent to doing the same to another innocent sentient organism. If you wish to live by subjective morals that are detached from reality and can be bent anytime to preserve one's sense of "decency". I'm sure you'd have a little more problem with a human baby being raised in loving care, shown kindness and kept well and cozy, randomly strung up and decapitated one day unnaturally, then chopped up and packed for buyers to consume. But somehow you seem to conveniently presume that only your own specie and a few other cherry picked species of sentient organisms that you are "familiar and comfortable with", have some magical property that raises them above everything else. It's all made up, completely detached from reality. You might as well wear fake elf ears and ride a horse around while holding a bow, acting like you're Legolas the eld from Lord of the Rings universe. It's equally detached from objective reality. Why even try at this point? Your whole statement is a contradiction to itself. "probably not", I am doubtful now, as to whether you've done sufficient research to have confident in what you believe. It seems your statement is more of a symbol to convince yourself.

  175. CoalOres You sad ape. Here's something new besides the bones you grind on daily- the ABILITY TO SUFFER PAIN, OR TO SENSE PAIN SUBJECTIVELY, is a function of an ORGAN/ORGAN SYSTEM, just like ANY OTHER FUNCTION. This is scientific fact. Sentience is not atomic, neither is it uni cellular. It is the RESULT OF AN ORGAN OR A GROUP OF ORGANS/TISSUES PRODUCING A REAL, QUANTIFIABLE number of activities, which collectively, are asserted to be sentience. NONE OF THE ORGANS ARE PRESENT ON PLANTS, NO PLANT TISSUE WORKS AS NERVOUS TISSUE, WHICH IS ABSENT IN ALL PLANTS, BECAUSE THE FUCKING PLANTS NEVER FUCKING EVOLVED A NERVOUS FUCKING SYSTEM, HOW THE FUCK DO YOU NOW KNOW THIS, AND YOU COPY PASTE FUCKING HERD VOMIT REGURGITATED. YOU NEED CERTAIN ORGANS TO BE SENTIENT, AND THE COW HAS IT, THE DOG HAS IT, THE HAWK HAS IT. WHY? BECAUSE IT EVOLVED BEFORE FUCKING HOMO SAPIENS SPLIT FROM OTHER APES, AND BEFORE THAT, FROM OTHER MAMMALS, WHO ALREADY HAD THE SENTIENT MECHANISM IN THEM, BECAUSE THE ANCESTOR WHICH DEVELOPED THAT >TRAIT/MUTATION<, or A GROUP OF SUCH, TO LEAD TO SENTIENCE, HAD ALREADY PASSED IT ONTO MORE BRANCHES THAN JUST THE ONE THAT ENDED UP ONLY ON HUMANS, YOU SELF INFLATED SICK FUCK. There's your science and history lesson, go fucking school yourself a bit, or just focus on feeling intellectually offended, and then use it to overlook everything, only to throw some more herd vomit my way. You are looking like a joke to so many people. And only idiots are laughing at me. Sigh Sigh. Help yourself, sometimes, will you? You don't even have to face the shame of looking directly at me as I spoke this to you, it's so much easier for you to just change right now as you sit behind a screen connected to the internet seeing this plain white and black. Try admitting it once, I know you can anticipate the feeling, and I know you don't like it. You are a human, and you can only go so far in hiding something so huge, and not your dick <3.

  201. Oh man what is this? "kind of like how a closeted gay man would grow a beard to cover up for their insecurity with their sexuality you instead attacking people with strength try to bog them with words you think they won't understand but to me it just seems like you're trying to look smart and coming off insecure and arrogant although it's possible that it's not insecurity but narcissism" That was a tangent, you again, just gave your subjective opinion on what you subjectively perceived. *You have continuously failed to mention a single fact that proves that I am being 'self-righteous, etc.' it's like you've deluded yourself into thinking that your personal interpretations have any inherent value. "oh and why do you expect scientific facts in an argument about morality that's rather silly" Another stupid statement from someone who's clearly scientifically ignorant but thinks his opinion is just as valid as everyone else's. Now that is an inferiority complex trying to compensate, if nothing else. Because of how limited your knowledge of biology is, you are incapable of observing the details of cognitive experience that underlie all conscious existence. The same conscious experience that creates moral structures, and even in non human species, organisms inherently experience moral and immoral behaviors. And ultimately, all biology emerges from the laws of this universe, that means THEY ARE FIXED IN PLACE, and everything emerging from it, will follow the same laws. Too bad for you there is no space in it for your made up interpretations. Just because you hold made up opinions about what morality is, and just because you like to believe that there is no way morality can be objective, despite every mechanism involved in existence, is objective. The subjectivity only arises from your ignorance and need to compensate for the lack of knowledge, the same knowledge that you have NEVER IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE, bothered to pursue, but FOR YOUR ENTIRE LIFE, YOU HAVE PRESUMED GARBAGE BELIEFS TO COMPENSATE. And frankly, you seem to be offended more than irritated. Like some primitive behavior of yours was just evoked when you read through what I wrote. Perhaps you've got a history of animal abuse, that could be plausible seeing how defensive you've gotten.

  206. No action is inherently moral or immoral. Firing a gun is only immoral if there's a sentient, innocent organism in the way of the bullet, but it's not immoral if done in self-defense/preservation. Eating meat isn't inherently immoral. The immoral aspect only emerges when an innocent organism suffers/dies without its consent, by the actions of an organism that understands consequences (this is important because there are organisms {even young humans, and humans with mental disabilities} who do not possess enough cognitive range or information to understand consequences. However, since the universe has objective, fixed laws, that implies there is no pure subjective morality within it. Every system within a deterministic universe will possess deterministic properties. the feeling of subjective morality only emerges in the interpretations of limited organisms, such as you and us. Subjectivity emerges due to a lack of sufficient information, and the dependency on the interpreter's biological limitations. So to reduce it to the meat argument - It's immoral to be a contributor in the death of a sentient organism, to eat it WHEN OTHER OPTIONS EXIST, which is the case for almost every single human living within the convenient sphere of human civilization. In a situation when no other options are available, the context changes, and killing another organism to ensure one's survival becomes morally acceptable. But even in that situation, there are people who'd chose to let themselves die. Also- there's no nutrient/mineral/etc within an animal's body that cannot be sourced elsewhere, so the 'eating meat for health' is a bogus, invalid argument.

  262. Here's the only thing that can be done to appease all involved groups : If any percentage of people in Kashmir want "Independence", meaning they are separatists and want to join Pakistan because they feel closer to it, it's understandable and they have the right to think how they want, BUT they don't get to drag the WHOLE STATE out of India just because of their personal feelings and desires. It is immoral to disrupt other people's lives for your desires. If All Kashmiris wanted to be separated from India, and form their own country or join Pakistan, then it would be wrong to stop them. But that is not the case. If half of Canadian citizens wanted to join USA, would it be right to force every Canadian to become a US citizen lol? They're literally ignoring all the suffering they will cause to people who don't share their dreams. So, the only 2 sensible options become - 1- People who want to join Pakistan, can move to Pakistan. And obviously, Pakistani gov has to allow them CITIZENSHIP, and economic opportunity, etc. But I doubt they have the ability right now to handle millions in migration, and not as refugees, but citizens. 2- Re-locate all the separatists, and give them their own corner of Kashmir with their own governing bodies and whatnot, which can be allocated depending on the percentage of Kashmiris that are separatists. And my personal take is that this "separatist sentiment" is religion fueled. Which means it's make believe, which means it is unrealistic, which means it's pointless. Separatists will never leave in peace the people who're fine with what they're part of and don't have a wish to change countries.

  288. Naamtar I would have to disagree on him being "bipolar extreme". He actively chases a state of mind, he does not switch involuntarily. When the "unicorn phase passed", he changed. But because he grew out of it/got bored/ didn't quite work out for him/ What he wanted from it, he got, but for a short period, and then the facade got too annoying to continue, and became more of a drag. He's looking more like someone who did some drugs and felt like he figured it out, but didn't, then went to something else, like witchcraft. He's creating "goals" in his mind, and then attaching "spiritual/mystical sounding/looking shit to that "goal", until he gets tired of pretending like he's getting what he wanted from it. Something like that. He doesn't just go there. He Rationalises it beforehand. I can't see how that is bipolarity( at least not in the EXTREME sense.) Since Mania and depression are NOT EXCLUSIVE to bipolarity. Obviously he can't tell what state of mind he is in or what illness he is suffering from, etc, which is literally the opposite of self aware. He could even be Schizoaffective. Also, since it's been long from when i watched this video, I believe he said he went to burning man, took some drugs, and THEN shit happened. so he didn't do all this shit while he was sober from what i recall. I really don't see the EXTREME Bipolarity in him. Not everyone going through PHASES is bipolar. Also, being bipolar doesn't make one a master of detecting other bipolars either. I'm probably more bipolar than him, in a regulated manner, lel.

  292. Once again, if a god does somehow exist, do you think he crated you solely for the reason to pray to him all your life and to never understand anything and you expect this will give you freedom from this life?   God doesn't need petty prayers. Where do you think this world would be if religion still ruled everyone's ignorant minds? That is right, The Fucking Bronze Age. Earth would still be center of the universe, dinosaurs died 6000 years ago(along with 90% of earth's species). People would still be praying to be cured from snake bites(oops) and cancer. And people would still being burnt to death for being "Witches". You use the things people made, the same people who realised that god was just a box that they were kept inside, a box that hid the whole world from them and made them feel like they are sinful being, and their only way of redemption is to keep paying the priests and keep begging for forgiveness.  Criminals kill, thinking they will be freed if they prayed enough. People enslaved the whole "Black" Race, because the same "god" said that it was OK , LOL!!! LELELELELEL!!!  Your whole idea of AFTERLIFE depends on that little black book being TRUE. ( the same book of which science and intelligence has proven completely bogus and full of monstrous crap that allows people to discriminate against anyone else they please and can commit genocide in the name of your god.  A God like that, along with all its justifiers... are poison to this world. To every child born, i hope this poison doesn't touch them.

  304. CurrencyPrime "One of the best".  Claim made, prove it. I don't see any trophies, and there's tens of thousands of strongmen in the world, if not more, and you have nothing to deny that there's people who do better than him at lesser, overall calorie cost, conclusion; his diet, and causally, body is inefficient.  People like you only suck up on other people's beings and leech off them, just to feel less worthless. The typical "Oh, since you're not a participant in the action, you cannot criticise it, but oh yes, all praises are welcome, since we're little butthurt kids who can't deal with any kind of scrutiny, due to psychological inadequacies."  Sorry, now I know ^-^. All I did, was accurately describe his incorrect overestimation of what he needs. He fucking feels dizzy not doing anything if he doesn't get all that flesh deep in him. If he DID actually have a clear understanding of how HIS body worked, he wouldn't be looking like a pig, but would be fitter.  But then of course, most people like you, like to warp the idea of fitness to suit yourself and your ideas, rather than admitting fault. "I am the best in the world at doing X activity, because nobody else does it, so I am the champion and the authority and everyone else is wrong.  Oh look, we have a competition where people numbering from hundreds to thousands, and not 7 BILLION, let's pull titles out of our steroid filled asses, like "world's strongest man", because logic.  Good job sucking the fuck out of this ideology tho :D.

  307. Al Simons No, not necessarily.  Think of this guy as a Hummer.  Huge, strong, and had made itself dependent on huge amounts of energy to function, But 20,000 is not the number. The more energy his body gets, the LESS efficient his body will need. Because there is  Morbid amounts of energy being supplied constantly.  Here's another, clearer example: US military.  They get  a lot of funds,to do their things, right? So they spend it, here and there, throughout the year, building things, training people etc. Say, it gets around 50 Billion in funding. But only ends up spending, say, 30 billion out of that. At the end of the year, they say "50 billion well spent, we were stretched thing, but we managed, it is the exact amount we need to work. Now, someone else might be sceptical about the figures, how is it even possible to spend 50 billion when the OUTPUT is NOT tallying up. And then, some "patriot" comes, and tells them, "Hey, you need to shut the fuck up you bigot anti-american guy, you don't know what they're doing, they're protecting us from the islamists, bla bla bla, fallacy of appealing to authority, blabla bla". So, this is the situation with Robert, and all the "calorie patriots" here. Remember Ends do not justify the means. And Co-relation does not IMPLY causation. Like if I ate 50 newborn chicks everyday, and then grow to be 8 feet tall, I can just attribute it to my growth, so I can justify eating a stupid amount of baby chicks, and nobody can say anything, since they haven't done the "exact same things as me", which according to most people here, is the only way you can judge someone else's actions, lol.. Yes, he got something, and lost something. Well, he isn't a "smartman" after all, so I shouldn't even have taken his "conviction of 20000" seriously, and just ignored it, but you see all these other kids and their butthurtly dumb comments? Hilarious. Here is something to weigh it around: There will be Dozens if not hundreds of HUGE and MASSIVE strongmen, who actually won a GOLD, and in multiple occasions(unlike our 20000 calorie god), and DID NOT  need 20000 calories to do it, let alone the training leading up to it. Does this not show that he DOES NOT NEED it? He might WANT IT, but  he Literally, Does Not Need it.  He might say he does, but that does nothing to change reality otherwise.  Oberst might be something special probably, thaa chosen golden child. We'll just have to wait and watch ;).  Or not wait, just watch randomly if the thought returns 20 years later. :D

  333. allcatsaregrey  Yes, i know what you are trying to get through, but it's just not sensible enough to accept.  You don't realise that  what a bunch of primates think about a hat Does not Change Its reality,  Merely the PERCEIVED TRUTH is changed and ONLY for the Primates who think like that. It's all arbitrary.( you are actually using Fashion, which changes every week, to describe this, lelelele)  How stupid, how utterly stupid is it that you would connect the discovery and  application of Electric charge to our EVOLUTION, lol. Along with all the other crap like religion,etc.  Lol, the Tinkerbell effect again? Which defines itself as a state where "*things that are thought to exist only because people believe in them*". LOL. So, by definition, if mankind stops existing, Everything else stops existing too? Nice theory, bro. You do understand that there are 7+ billion people on this planet and  EACH with their own  definition of"truth" about the world, and to each person, everything's value is different. So, by the definition of "The Tinkerbell effect"  Everything Does Exist, but not only that, It has 7 billion True States of being, Lewl. I actually doubt you even studied proper philosophy, like those of Neitzche, Baruch or Schoppenhauer, instead, you seem to be running off into Crowely or some materialist philosopher who just bolster your ideas What a pathetic wishful "Idea", this "Tinker bell" effect, lol. Wow, holy sheed, i'm laughing from my chair, thinking what goes on in this person's mind, lewl. You : "Boiling point of water is 99.61°C. Everyone starts believing that it is 50°C. BOOM,  Water boils at half the Temperature now, Tinkerbell effect FTW! lel.

  350. I.Q. NOTORIOUS  But it is literally said "If you don't cover yourself, you can't blame the men for raping you."  You can keep cherry picking, mate.   But what will happen to you in your deathbed, will you still think that allah is real? Or will your whole existence be wasted on someone's imagination, and excuse to kill millions, just because you wanted to be more than just an animal, and wanted some greater meaning to life. I think you need a taste of your own medicine.  "Men are tempted [in this life] by the lure of women...far better is the return of God. Say: 'Shall I tell you of better things than these, with which the righteous shall be rewarded by their Lord? Theirs shall be gardens watered by running streams, where they shall dwell for ever: wives of perfect chastity..." (Surah 3:14, 15)  < patriarchal bullshit religion. I feel bad for half of the believers, the women, who'll spend their lives as subjugated, stockholm syndrome suffering souls, by their own blood. another one:  "Forbidden to you are...married women, except those you own as slaves." (Surah 4:20-, 24-)  "you can't fuck other bitches, unless you make them into your slaves, then you can fuck all the bitches. *The Quran in Sura 4:11 says: The share of the male shall be twice that of a female *  Nice, another male superiority bullshit. *The Quran in Sura 4:24 says: And forbidden to you are wedded wives of other people except those who have fallen in your hands [as prisoners of war.* Lol, Please, do explain ALL of these to me, and then I will post a few dozen more, and IT HAS TO BE TRUE, because it is in the QURAN!!!! Because that's the same fucking excuse you use. And it works just as well if anyone else uses it. You just think big shit in your head, and think that you have proof of god's existence, but all you have, it a bunch of self-important stories to make yourself above the others around you (even if only inside your head), but when you come OUTSIDE your muslim community, you have NOTHING to defend it, because you're not talking to a bunch of credulous base people. BTW, come back here, when you realise how wrong you were, in however many years that happens, and realise that you could have saved yourself all that trouble, if you just acknowledged how wrong your people are.  Then you wouldn't be wasting your only chance at existing, on stupid stories a pedophile heard in a cave. " Catholic priests raping up boys, thats not Christianity. It is FORBIDDEN for Muslims to have sex outside marriage therefore rape is FORBIDDEN.""" >  Ok, I guess that's why mohammad married a 9 year old girl and then fucked her a few years later. but THAT is not Pedophillia, oh right, he was Married to her, so how is that pedophilia? LOGIC LOLOLOL Your PERFECT prophet, couldn't even Keep ONE WIFE, he was so horny, that he'd marry 13 women and young girls (or more), you need to really take a second look at your religion. You've been blindly sucking on it for so long, you don't realise how disgusting it really is. No wonder all those rapes are happening, the men are copying mohammad's behaviour most probably, lol.

  351. TheGiantKiller8 Lol, keep looking for things to make yourself feel like you made a successful ad hominem. Here: let me give you some common sense. :Bangladesh is 86% Muslim. :The men who raped there, are Muslim. :The two men who blamed the victim, where the "top guy" in the mosque and the Police. :Allah says to not rape(unless you have slaves or your soldiers take the women of the men they defeat) This is From the quran >>>>>>>>>>>> *"Abu Said al-Khudri said: "The apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the apostle of Allah were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Quranic verse, "And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hands possess". That is to say, they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period." [The Quran verse is 4:24] Abu Dawud 2:2150*  <<<<<<<<< And this *"Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek them from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication. So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due, but if you agree mutually after the requirement (has been determined), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. Qur'an 4:24"* :The Men in Bangladesh still rape the women. :Your "allah" is so powerless, that he can't even stop One MUSLIM(or a gang of 6), from RAPING ANOTHER MUSLIM WOMAN. : People still rape despite being Muslim. CONCLUSION: Your religion is bullshit, your god doesn't exist, your book is made by people who love marrying and fucking little girls and raping women, And it is completely Useless when it comes to even stop a man from raping someone, EVEN OF THEIR OWN FUCKING RELIGION, THE SAME GOD, LOL.* Keep on believing in it, I don't give a shit. Your existence is getting wasted, and you will only get one chance at it. So yeah, waste your time hitting your head on the floor pretending that there's someone in the sky who loves you and you are special. You will Die a life of SELF-TOLD LIES, only because YOU wanted to believe them, NOT because they are real. I guess that's fair price. by the way, ONLY 22% of the world is Muslim, so NEVER think that 'you are right' simply out of all the people surrounding you. Or do it, lol. I don't care, Don't have time for all petty, self-important apes.

  354. TheGiantKiller8 Stay delusional, stay happy.  You believe it because you want to, and believing in it, gives you the relief you seek form it, it offers nothing in the real world, religion does NOTHING that a person could not do without it. Now, remember that ALL the insults I use on you in this comment and the ones before, are NOT because I want to insult you or that I don't like you, It's SIMPLY because of how stupid you are, and how incapable of criticizing your own religion you are, because you are afraid of some imaginary man in the sky. And that makes you stupid, which is the reason for the cussing. " It doesn't promote taking slaves it promotes freeing slaves, it was major part of life in those times ."  LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL??? "Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek them from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication. So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due, but if you agree mutually after the requirement (has been determined), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. Qur'an 4;24"   > IT'S LITERALLY TAKEN FROM THE QURAN, AND SAYS ALLAH MADE THOSE SLAVES FOR YOU TO FUCK. YOU'RE IN SO MUCH DENIAL, Lol.  IF YOU BELIEVE IN ALLAH SO MUCH, GO, TAKE A SLAVE AND RAPE THEM, NOTHING WRONG WITH IT ACCORDING TO YOUR IMAGINARY FRIEND. IF not, then you are a coward, and not a real muslim, and not a real follower of the quran. ^-^  You people are depraved.  The only thing you have, is a book which you copy shit from, because you're incapable of understanding morals and then applying them to your life. So you just copied the first shit thrown at you, which luckily happened to be quran. That's how SIMPLE YOUR LIFE IS. Such base existence. BUT, religion does a great job at gathering rapists(bangladeshi muslims), Murderers(Middle east), Misogynists(stoning women to death and not the men) and paedophiles(mohammad and all the other people after him who married little babies and then raped them) and then giving them justification to do the things they do. AND MAKE THEM "holy", lol. Again, Keep your delusions, I am not the one who will die a delusional death, and have wasted their entire life, believing in shit made up by some dumbass 1400 years ago. You are incapable of accepting change in your current state, so I'm just gonna stop here, and let you think what you want. Billions of people have already thrown their lives into this trash, a few more won't make much difference.  If you REALLY FOLLOWED THE QURAN, WORD BY WORD, YOU WOULD BE LIVING IN FUCKING SYRIA AMONG ISIS, AWAY FROM ALL THE PAGAN AND THE WESTERN INFLUENCE(including the computer the phone the electricity), YOU FUCKING IGNORANT PRICK, WITH YOUR CHERRY PICKING DOUBLE STANDARDS, Lol. Cya, I REALLY HOPE THAT ALLAH IS THE ONE WHO EXISTS, LOL. OR YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY AND GENERATIONS BEFORE THEM, WILL ALL HAVE BEEN WRONG, AND ALL BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO PRETEND LIKE THEY HAD THE ANSWERS TO THIS WORLD, AND TO FEEL SPECIAL, without actually making any real attempts. Just hitting their floor on the ground, feeling like it means jack shit.

  355. StriverOfIslam88 Lol, you haven't been keeping up with the middle east, now have you? LOLOLOL.  Ever Single Jihadist, IS MUSLIM, ever single ISIS soldier, IS MUSLIM, and, sadly, a TRUER MUSLIM, TRUER TO THE QURAN. I am not saying that ISLAM makes people Rape others of even their own religion, but it sure as fuck does nothing to stop them. Hahaha, "all powerful god, can't even stop some people from raping his own religion's women".  But this 'god' doesn't exist, neither do any of the other tens of thousands who other people believe in. REMEMBER THIS, YOU ARE NOT THE MAJORITY. MOST OF THIS WORLD HAS NO CLUE OF ISLAM. People are STILL stoned to death, by MUSLIMS. *This doesn't mean that Every single muslim stones people to death, but it sure as fuck Means that ISLAM LITERALLY TELLS YOU TO STONE PEOPLE, and a lot of them ONLY DO IT BECAUSE IT'S WRITTEN IN THE QURAN.  WHERE ELSE DO YOU FUCKING THINK THAT THEY GOT THIS IDEA? LOL!!!! Talk about wilful delusion overdose.  YOU CAN JUST PRETEND IT'S REAL, BECAUSE YOU SURROUND YOURSELF WITH IT, AND CONVINCE YOURSELF, THAT IT MUST BE REAL. SOMETHING IS NOT REAL, IF YOU HAVE TO TRY SO HARD TO BELIEVE IN IT, Lol. <3.  *Good luck with whatever you have left of your being, since you whored the rest out for fantasies of the afterlife and the delusion of knowing.* Bruh, that offensive butthurt. I guess you're just doing what you have been trained to do, lel. Can't help someone who's clueless about their condition, and not even ready to acknowledge it.

This is what happened: 7 billion animals(us) stole a fuck tone of land and cut a ton of it up to wastelands, then drove the populations of animals to those tiny zones, and NOW you wanna say "They are overrun with deer". Pathetic, and sadly, this opinion is quite abundant, lol. Ohohoh, So some blind dude who gets off to someone aiming the gun for him and telling him "yeah he's gonna hit", just so he can feel less like shit.  Yeah, sure, you folks are "More of a man" than me, for killing unwary little birds ,HAHAHA, One does not simply give a fuck about unsubstantiated crap thinking idiots. So delusional and indoctrinated, that YOU ACTUALLY MISS THE WHOLE POINT LOL.  Wait, what was the point... hmmm.. Oh yeah, I think it was something like " The Animal had no reason to die" or something like that. Once again, some animal who's been taught all its life, to think like it is above everything else, wouldn't surprise me if you always miss the point.... Like this fucker misses the shot(Unless someone aims for him so he can feel like a hunter and beat off to it.). What's brave about hiding behind a tree and shooting a deer? Wow, must be a bunch of typical "Absorbents of ancestral bullshit", who just copy other monkeys without actually thinking about their actions with whatever's left of their  brains after shrinking under all the crap. I'd rather be a "pussy fagget" than be some fuck who goes around killing animals and thinks, "I am a fucking man, fuck yeah murrikah"/  lel. O man, this is gonna piss ya off.

  493. atreyu119 Sheesh, guess you really want the D.  Premise: You humans, and the animals you humans eat, both possess the ability to experience reality subjectively, Which exists because of the Brain, and the central nervous system. WHICH IS SHARED. The Traits that Species share, are in almost all cases, traits that develop at a stage where the trait sharing species were one. The times where this is Not The case, like bats evolving wings after separating from aves(birds), the traits STILL PERFORM THE SAME FUNCTION. Plants, all plants, and any other form of life, is DEVOID OF THIS TRAIT OF SENTIENCE. Sentience is the PREMISES OF MORAL CONSIDERATION. NON-SENTIENT things do not. The only difference, is the presence of an organ which Functions to provide the organism with sentience. Conclusion: If you eat a cow, pig, horse, dog, etc, using whatever excuse you do, you should have no problem eating humans, dolphins, etc. Because in the end, The cow will suffer, as will the dog, the human, just like anything with a Functioning Brain, no two humans suffer the same, so the excuse of it being different is worthless. This is Scientific FACT. People's Personal opinion or cultural preference can go eat shit and die. Such people reek of self preserving hypocrisy and double standards. This is also scientific fact. Therefore, Not necessarily go vegan, but just Stop being a disease upon the system of life which all are just a part of. Milk can be retrieved without making the cow suffer, or wool, from a goat for example.

  495. atreyu119 "Why are you making an argument for not eating meat altogether when it's the industry that's the problem? Like I said before, what do you think about hunting? It not only provides a good source of protein, but it is also heavily regulated and actually helps to maintain the population of certain species. It's a win/win situation. Also, feel free to critique my argument, as I'm sure it's not perfect."  _ The argument isn't perfect, not just that, it is flawed entirely, and is full of double standards. Beans, tofu, soy, almonds, etc, provide more protein than 'hunting for protein'. They are also void of murder. Here's a question for you. If I go into New York Times Square, and 'Hunted' some humans with my humane bow for my winter meat, because they are most like me and will have the MOST NUTRIENTS THAT I NEED, literally, it is ANY DIFFERENT than hunting a rabbit or Moose? If so, Why?  There's one for you. Next-  You reduce other animals to protein and whatnot. You fail to realise that there are certain humans who are born LESS SENTIENT THAN the Animals YOU EAT. Would you be more comfortable with slaughtering and eating them? You'd actually be saving them from their miserable lives by proxy as well. :D You need to try and refute this statement - There is no difference between killing a pig for meat, or killing a human. - Once you go through all the factual potentials of a good reason to continue, then please, do as you please. You live in a world where your behavior will be overlooked and nobody will bother changing it for you, so be wary, lel.

  497. atreyu119 "Do you feel empathy when you step on a cockroach? I'm sorry if it seems cold hearted to you but I don't. (That doesn't mean I go around stepping on cockroaches for fun, let's get that clear)." -- Few things here-  1- You are Using extreme and absurd examples, such as trampling a cockroach out of no conscious choice of my own while I walk through somewhere. Using THIS to equate it with YOU knowingly paying for the rape, torture, slaughter, life enslavement of Thousands of sentient beings over your sad life, all for PERSONAL FULFILLMENT. You don't do it to survive, you do it because you enjoy it and because your herd enjoys it. It makes you feel whatever you are so desperate for. Simple. I don't trample cockroaches to eat them for personal enjoyment. It gets trampled by MISTAKE. YOU GET IT, IT'S A FUCKING ACCIDENT LOL, Unlike your ACTIVE CHOICE TO PARTICIPATE IN RAPE, MURDER, SLAVERY, etc LOLOLO.  (Also, don't be a bigger idiot by using my CAPS LOCK as a strawman excuse to overlook all the intellectual smashing you're receiving. It's good for you if you improve your mentality.) 2- "My empathy for an animal is directly related to it's level of intelligence." - Really full of yourself, yes.   "I will determine that the main trait of my specie is the trait for considering the life of ALL sentient species, out of no scientific basis or moral argument. I will just assume it because it helps me overlook all the murder and rape that I am a part of, so it's better I continue like this avoiding shame and die pretending." 3- You're another fucking idiot, like most of your herd, and here's why- You don't realise that machines are also intelligent. Even more intelligent than YOU, in thousands of ways. Even more than a child in your family(or a really senile person), who isn't even smarter than an average pig, LOL. YOU EAT PIGS, who are Smarter than INFANT HUMAN BEINGS. Therefore, by your own twisted logic, YOU EAT SOMETHING SMARTER THAN A YOUNG HUMAN, and something that tastes eerily similar. Go and contemplate your shit ridden life, you might have some time to make reparations and change your pitiful stone age mentality.

  519. evarand123 awesome Now the "It's a test" escape, huh. You clearly have no idea, as a typical religious person, how BURDEN OF PROOF works. You are trained to assume shit like you're actually intelligent, when that is a false statement, You are not intelligent, you are actually gullible and are wasting your existence on a paedohpile's schizophrenic fantasies, and thinking of them as true, SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU ONLY WANT TO FEEL SPECIAL, without actually making an effort. You just pick 5 things from a book, and pretend like you know all there is to know about the world. You people are an INSULT to the people who actually work to understand the real world. While people like you, keep slamming their heads on the ground, pretending like you're some god's creations, and how you're something more than an animal, when you're not. I guess that's all you're after. A title, a title that makes you feel less like crap, and gives you the SELF GIVEN RIGHT(secretly) where your "kind" is above all others, instead of actually doing something to improve your condition. The typical discriminatory, self benefiting ape behaviour. Heck, you don't even leave the poor muslim women and kids alone, lol. Sad. You are also thirsty for that heaven and those virgins, and whatnot. Also, all your non muslim friends will burn in hell too. So will every non muslim who ever fought to defend muslims, simply because they were not muslims themselves. And it's not because I said so, it's ":BECAUSE IT'S WRITTEN IN THE ALMIGHTY HOLY QURAN:", lol. Sucks for them, but hey, at least you know everything there is to know, and you're going to heaven, have fun, in your heaven, Lol. They sold you imaginary promises for your real existence, LOLOLOL!!! Enjoy whatever you have left, bahahahahaha. I'm no more interested in even trying, some people just love their diseases.

  521. One can not hold a LIE and a TRUTH, both, at the same time, as a determiner of REALITY. So, if allah is real, then everyone who's not a muslim, which is the majority of around 6 billion, will ALL GO TO HELL SINCE THEY WON'T PROBABLY CONVERT TO ISLAM. The Same will happen to you, in response to someone else's religion, like christianity, where YOU will also go to hell because YOU are NOT christian, or a jew, or hindu, etc,etc. Which he isn't, most religious people are either too scared of "Going to hell" or "opposing the almight whose never proven itself", or their religion tells them good stories about themselves and how they are the special ones, so they never dare to question it. And often they're just too afraid of admitting that almost everyone they know, is wrong, because that cracks their delusions. Again> "You cannot believe a LIE about something, at the same time as believing a TRUTH. Every religious guy thinks they're right, every human thinks they're right in one sense or the other, or why would they do such stupid shit with such pride? Everyone thinks they're a genius, until someone comes and rubs their faces on the very real dirt and shows them what fools they are, lol." So, Believe a lie, and CLAIM it to be true, and see how far that gets you, lol. The price is your existence. And you've paid a decent part of it, just for promises of greatness and dreaming about gifts from allah. But hey, Thanks for BELIEVING that I and everyone who's NOT A PART OF ISLAM, will go to hell. What a nice mind, Lol.

I am going to kill a school full of people, because the QURAN justifies me going and blowing myself up after I spend all my bullets on the innocent, who are ALSO muslim, and believers of muhammad. " Is Taliban, by any chance, an ATHEIST TERRORIST ORGANISATION?  Lol, *Doesn't the quran also say that it is the WAY OF LIFE, and the Ultimate truth, and people who abide by islam, are meant to live their lives by it, because allah, so, what about  alshabab, Isis, alquaeda, bokoharam, ETC,ETC,  heck, here's the whole damn list  :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_State_Department_list_of_Foreign_Terrorist_Organizations Look, don't play the word game with me. So are you TELLING ME, that NOBODY DOES BAD SHIT BECAUSE OF THE QURAN? Not A SINGLE MUSLIM? THEN PROVE IT. Or will you use the typical card of "Oh, no those particular guys are not real muslims you see, i am the real kind of muslim, not them. Despite the fact that they have god and shit written on their flag, their purpose is to ESTABLISH A CALIPHATE FOR ISLAM, AS IS WRITTEN IN THE FUCKING QURAN MATE, WHY ARE YOU IN SUCH DENIAL? Lol But, if you STILL think that YOU are right, PLEASE, TYPE IT THE FUCK DOWN, because you are most likely wrong, entirely wrong. Only thing, is when you say things in your head, they all seem to make perfect sense, because all you're trained to discuss with, are other muslims who nod to the same things as you. Oh, one more last thing; ALL your non-muslim friends WILL BURN IN HELL FOREVER because they are not the 'precious people of allah', but hey, at least you and your family will go to heaven <3. What a kind fucking god, lol. You'll also feel stupid if you remember this discussion further in your life when you change your mind. you'll be like "Damn, I shoulda just stopped denying shit for my own personal benefit, and just accepted the flaws in religion. A FLAWED RELIGION CAN NOT BE THE WORD OF A PERFECT GOD. IF THE GOD WAS PERFECT(which he needs to be by DEFINITION), then THE QURAN WOULD BE PERFECT, AND SO WOULD THE LIVES OF EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES IT. Therefore it is a scam by old perverts to get young girls to rape, and you dumb apes to use as soldiers, Soldiers who'll do anything that is asked of them. You think if allah was real, you would have an EASIER TIME PROVING HIM TO MORE THAN JUST 20% of the world, LOL. Also, since religion doesn't make people do bad things, why did  THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE FROM FIRST WORLD COUNTRIES< FLY TO SYRIA AFTER THEY CALLED FOR THE CALIPHATE? Damn you're wasting your own life away, just because you don't wanna deal with accepting everyone around you as being wrong and deluded, along with yourself. Because people are apathetic, and really hate change, because it means they were wrong the whole time (Which isn't gonna change even if you keep denying it lol), because that's how the real world works. You've just been trained to think like your beliefs amount to anything.

RebornChieko1434 Sorry, but before you type anything, can you STATE WHERE I SAID "RELIGION IS TO BLAME FOR EVERYTHING".  * Your ignorance is this; You think that simply because religion doesn't make, or give anyone the excuse and a glorifying justification for violence and discrimination, IT CAN'T BE TO BLAME FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DO USE IT AS A JUSTIFICATION, BECAUSE IT IS WRITTEN IN THE SAM FUCKING BOOK TO COMMIT JIHAD AND TO SPREAD ISLAM THROUGHOUT THE WORLD AND CRUSH THOSE WHO OPPOSE IT. WHY, YOU ASK? BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT'S WRITTEN IN THE SAME BOOK, OUT OF WHICH, YOU DRAW YOUR OWN 'ARGUMENTS'.* I am cringing so hard right no, I almost farted. You're the one who's immature, still believing childish stories that your mommy and dadday told you when you were a little baby, and filled your head with hot air and now you feel too special. The same way their parents did to them, lol. You are lying to each other's faces every single time, just because you believe it to be true, doesn't make it so. Remember, TWO TRUTHS CANNOT HOLD THE SAME PLACE. and if that's the case, then 85% of the people alive today, WHO ARE NOT MUSLIMS, WILL BURN IN HELL FOR ETERNITY. If the christians get lucky with their claims, then around 80% of the world, INCLUDING YOU GREAT FOLKS, WILL BURN IN HELL FOR EVER. The only way you can believe all your bullshit, is if NOBODY ARGUES WITH YOU. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU PEOPLE DO, LOL KNOWING OR UNKNOWINGLY. YOU AVOID ALL CRITICISM, AND PLAY THE "I AM OFFENDED" card,  AS IF THAT COUNTS AS A VALID ARGUMENT, LOL. AND YOU DO IT EVERY SINGLE DAY, YOU LIVE LIES, SIMPLY BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS "NOT AS CONVENIENT". The thing about delusional, word sensitive, wishful thinkers, is that they don't know what they are, which is the very reason they are able to maintain that state. Once again, go crazy, I am not the one who's in the delusion, therefore I have nothing to gain from believing all that horse shit, which is why i am not BIASED to those beliefs, as you are. Waste away as you seem to be enjoying it, cheerios.

  532. evarand123 awesome "you can do as you please with them, they belong to you by the will of allah"  *SOUNDS LIKE RAPE SLAVERY*,  Just because the quran doesn't use the LITERAL WORD, "RAPE", DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT DOESN'T ALLOW IT AND JUSTIFY IT. I am talking to an idiot who, when in an argument, isn't even capable of looking at ALL THE POINTS, rather than just looking at the same self important bullshit he's been feeding on, his whole lie.. i mean life. NOW READ THIS AND SHUT UP, Ignorant kid. Go read the fucking quran even, since you don't know shit about that either. "It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor doth the night outstrip the day. They float each in an orbit.  Qur'an 36:40" WRONG, THE SUN DOES NOT 'FLOAT' AROUND THE MOON AND VICE VERSA, LOL MUHAMMAD IS DUMB, AND HE'S MAKING YOU STUPID TOO, LOL "By the Sun and his (glorious) splendour; By the Moon as she follows him;  Qur'an 91:1-2" AGAIN, THE MOON DOES NOT FOLLOW THE SUN, OK?!! LOL DUMB "And verily We have beautified the world's heaven with stars/lamps, and We have made them missiles for the devils, and for them We have prepared the doom of flame.  Qur'an 67:5"  ... This.. This one... LOLOLOLOLO!! Meteors are missiles of allah sent to earth to kill devils, LOLOLOL!!!! That's just THREE, here's a few dozen more. http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Scientific_Errors_in_the_Quran YOUR PERFECT GOD FAILED AT BASIC SCIENCE, LOL  Get your ignorant head educated. Just reading one ancient book written by paedophiles, and pretending to know everything isn't going to help you. Do you want your life to be a delusion too? Like it is to your grandfather, father, and before them. You will just be another one who fell for Mohammad's paedophillic, conquring rape land fantasy (No wonder the men are to rule by the quran, how else will you make all the bitches fuck you and act like your slaves, no shock so many men love it, I don't see many women defending Islam.OH THAT'S RIGHT, I FORGOT, THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO, AND CAN BE STONED TO DEATH). ME MOCKING YOU, IS THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO YOUR DELUDED EXISTENCE. THE ONLY PROBLEM, IS THAT YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND,LOL. THEREFORE, I MUST MOCK THE IGNORANCE OUT OF YOU, UNTIL IT BECOMES A STIGMA <3. You're welcome. Yeah, sorry, kid. The truth doesn't always come in a convenient little booklet which tells you all the good shit you want to hear just to feel special. <*Idiots can think their points make sense and are based on facts. That doesn't affect reality in any way. More people believing in allah doesn't make him any real, than LESS people believing in an apple, makes it disappear.* You just think that the shit that goes on in your little deluded herds, actually weighs up to factual scrutiny, by SHUNNING EVERY CRITICISM OF SAID DELUSIONS, LOL. CLEVER.  OR are you?

  552. Anthony Bachour  "Do you even lift? This man needs so many calories because he's on a quest to become as strong as possible. He's 6'8" which is hardly average and needs to maintain 400lbs body weight so he can be competitive. He has a reason for eating so much and I don't think he's worried about dying of clogged arteries as he's already decided to go on a cocktail of drugs to be able to reach this level." I do occasionally, Lift, yes. Not in the gym, at home. I can handle myself, and don't break like a twig.  Healthwise, I am much less likely to die of a disease, and much probable to live a longer life,etc,etc,less bp, less stress,etc (unless some fucker drives me over.... fuck, that'd suck.) . Ok, so, I am 6'1''. around 165 lbs. but I KNOW i will Never Even need 10,000 calories a day, Let alone 15 to 20,000 (Used the numbers to give you an idea. I'm still not half his size. Weight maybe, but more weight doesn't require more calories, to be weight, there's just a constant putting on and off of weight. Yes, he does heavy workouts, and I'll probably never be able to do them, but heck, I would never become like that, in the "mission to become the strongest".  His training is also consistent of LIMITED, Specific Workouts. Or you would be able to tell, just by looking at him, what he focuses on; Food and Lifting. Also, the term "Strong" is ambiguous and often revolves around the limited perception of the humans of a particular time period. Since you asked me whether I lifred, *Ask him this,  "Do you even run?"

  564. ***** Oh good god, yes I have, since it was IN the video.  Of course I won't be running behind a strongman trophy, just how I won't be running behind a figure ice skating. They're all petty titles that people chase all their lives, when all they ever had to do, was to realise their strength themselves, lol.  A "TITLE" is a TITLE, not the "TRUTH".  "Miss Universe, DOES NOT MEAN, Mistress of the universe. "Mister World, DOES NOT mean mister of the world.  "Strongest man trophies" DO NOT make the person "The Strongest man".  It's just a human concept, and equally petty. Just because a bunch of people start caring about these things, doesn't change their worthlessness and arbitrariness. What does the number of trophies he has, have anything to do with anything?  If a guy who has 1 more award than him, comes an tells him that he is an idiot, then you will probably believe him instantly, because of the 1 more trophy he has, lol. I Guarantee to you, that even if he wanted, he wouldn't be able to hold his breath for more than a few seconds, and would lose to little kids. Should I call him a loser who can't even hold his breath for longer than little Children, but still calls himself a "strongman"? Lol, no. Because that's how idiots think.  He didn't win trophies on calorie utilization mastery, nor did he win the  national trophy of knowing what to eat, and knowing how much one needs to eat. I Can use the same trophy argument in the other direction and just say "Nope, he doesn't count for shit, since he has no world championship trophies."  But then I would just be deliberately lowering my logic, just to feel like I am making sense.

  585. Don Megga Oh god, another one.  I just hope you didn't go disliking my videos just to feel like you won anything, like most people do. It's really a pain in the ass, lol.  Now, here's something for you to consider: the 9 above him, didn't take his diet, and outdid his ass IN EVERY WAY(which is why he lost). You can only burn so much energy in a day, and 20,000 is not it, not with his "workout", which probably consists more of  cooking, eating and shitting than training. That's why he's so fat, he's probably not seen his own dick in ages. I don't know what you are even defending. There is a DIFFERENCE between a Nutritional diet, and a CALORIE heavy diet. GUESS which one his is??   If he actually ate Proper food, he wouldn't be able to stuff enough to get that much. That's why he eats shit full of shit, where everything is replaced with calories.  If he actually gave a shit about doing HIS VERY POSSIBLE BEST.  He wouldn't look like a pig who just got lucky at being big as well. He doesn't care about that, he doesn't mind being the freak if people throw money at him for doing it. Talk about "Being a strong man competitor".  He's just like you; Lost in numbers, medals, and the fad of his time period, and defending and continuing it, because it saves him from more cognitive dissonance.  "bla bla bla, Look at his medaaaalsssssss look at the moulded, plated metalll, it means so mucchh, it is soo much proooofffff, Loook thizzz facctzzz". jee.  Petty Argumentum ad populum and Ad hominems.

  587. Don Megga  So, doesn't the " One case of a strongman that actually eats obsessively insane amounts of calories everyday, but doesn't manage to beat the OTHER strongmen around him, who can easily go with 7500" ALSO come under the same "It shows nothing of substance since it's just one fat guy? .  THIS is what I meant, by empty calories, and proper nutritional food. You do also realise, that Oberset is YOUNG as fuck, and STILL so damn fat and energy cookoo already. "And yes I looked at your video, it is relevant because you are the only one who is attacking the guy on his diet and physique... so of course I had to wonder what you actually looked like." - Fair enough. BUT, Again, I am not "attacking" him by mentioning the poor logic behind his diet. It's not "attacking", simply pointing out the obvious mistake, some may call it criticism. If me criticising him, is "attacking", then anyone else Praising him, is "kissing his ass". You can't just be like "Ok, we're letting all the praises through now, ok keep the praises coming, keep all the good feedback up... OH WAIT, A CRITICISM??!! YO POUNCE THIS H88888ER, for hating and attacking  someone with text boxes!!!" Can't have exceptions like that. brings Flaws of personal Bias, which is detrimental to you, ultimately ;v My simple point was that Mark Felix is only 4 inches shorter and 100ish pounds less, yet can do BETTER than oberest, literally, like better in terms of stats and all that, with almost ONE THIRD the calorie intake, and he was just ONE of all the examples.

  589. Conner H Actually you didn't get what I meant.  The shit he eats, and the amount of it that he eats, IS a health issue, and don't tell me that strongmen can't die of disease. Also, remember. a "strong guy life" is not the same as a "healthier life".  I don't eat shit like that, and DO statistically, have a better chance of living a longer AND HEALTHIER life. "Also, i don't understand why it's so unbelievable to you that he needs 20,000 calories to maintain his 400 pounds of body mass"  You didn't read the comment above yours, where  Megga himself, tells you how there are WORLD CHAMPIONS who WEIGH MORE, yet EAT LESS.  So you can SAY that he "needs the 20,000 to remain unsuccessful in winning a strongman championship, while others can take the cup at around 7000 calories, EASY.   "And finally, i don't get why you're critiquing what Robert is doing to reach his goals. Why don't you go fucking do something instead of bitching about how much one of the strongest men in the world eats."  Think of the judge and the murderer, and their lack of relative experience of each other's actions, yet look at the judgements. "OH JUDGE, YOU can't Say I'm guilty, you Can't say that I am a murderer, because YOU'VE NEVER KILLED ANYONE, therefore DO NOT possess the authority to say ANYTHING  to me." Same goes for you and your politicians. Don't you fucking dare to insult ANY politician on what they do, BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT A POLITICIAN. DUDE,  Talk about fucked up, self-fulfilling garbage logic. Lol, the hypocrisy. Didn't you Think this when you were typing? You're here, criticising/ backlashing a butthurt, about how I'm supposed to "stop bitching and go do something", and what are you doing? Sucking on the teats of a guy who doesn't even know you exist, and you're busy sucking up to him, maybe to fire motor neurons to make you feel whatever you long for. I didn't go up to his house to insult him. HIS VIDEO loaded on MY FEED, and is in the PUBLIC DOMAIN, and OPEN TO CRITICISM. If you Can't take a fucking criticism, you're not fucking worthy of the bother of a praise. As I mentioned before, but the world wouldn't be as fucked as it is, if people actually accepted their faults in the first go, lol.  Go cry somewhere else.  And YES, this debate is stupid, because most people getting butthurt here, can't read  the previous comments and then Keep typing the same shit again and again, and I have to keep coming and correcting them and their biased delusions.

  591. ipoomini I understand.  But really, man. Using analogies does help, But then Mariuz, felix, and all the other guys, are ALSO planes. and Seem to run perfectly fine (Actually BETTER) at around 7500 Calories, when this one needs around 20000 Calories, just to not feel dizzy. He's not much bigger. Over me, having around 17 centimetres, and  220 pounds, causes him to need around TEN TIMES the energy. Really, it's obvious that he doesn't NEED that energy, he just THINKS that he needs it, and forcing this onto his body, conditioning his body to depend on more energy than before to to the same tasks. I have drawn comparisons with half a dozen other strongmen, who ALL have MORE(actually have golds too) trophies, awards, etc,etc. All at the cost of around HALF,  That's TEN Thousand Calories LESS, and Almost the same size if not bigger.  Doesn't add up.  Let's take the following analogy as example:  I am a wrestler(yes i know it's just entertainment, w/e). I ate 30000 calories in a day. Then I managed to "win a belt" somehow, and did fair amounts of training. Now, I can credit me winning my belt and being "so strong" to the calories I eat.  And my fans will agree to it and mimic the thought. But then what about all the other people around me who're just as strong if not stronger, and didn't eat as much as me?  Well, I and my fans will simply disregard them, and go back to using me as the  justification for my own actions.  That's not how logic works for me. Also, Swimmers and cross country cyclists, and other sportsmen like these, are the ones who "go on non stop".  Not strongmen. They have breaks. Ultimately, YES, he is BIGGER AND STRONGER(and fatter), a Strongman, and DOES NEED a buttload more Calories in a day than an "average" person, but yo, 20,000 is NOT THAT AMOUNT. It doesn't affect me in ANY WAY. If he gets a stroke or something, I am not the one who's gonna be flailing on the ground. Even though it is entirely possible for me to get a stroke, but sure as fuck not as likely as him, along with a legion of other diseases.

  621. I can't exactly say I'm enjoying it, but where I have reached in my understanding of the universe and the life within it, in contrast to all the humans before us, gives me a vague guarantee that it will all be ok, as an organism bound to evolution, and the need to move away from our violent/negative instincts(which inevitably deteriorates standards of living) which had a purpose when civilization did not exist, and now we're just in the phase where those behaviors and beliefs slowly get rooted out by something like an "anthropomorphized natural selection". With the development in AI and our ability to intervene into the genetics of an organism, there'll come a time when we can just identify and weed out all the pedophile, religious fanaticism, greed, jealousy, etc sustaining gene/traits, before the human is even born lol; You could say that is a place where I find solace. I also have some understanding of hormones and diet, where I smoke a lot of pot, fap, as well at eat decent amounts of sugars, and some minor exercise to keep my body from losing form to our, present, unnatural environment; this makes it almost impossible for me to feel too down, I should get some more vitamin B12 tho. Most people's existential suffering stems from things they don't know, rather than the things they don't have. I haven't quite understood it yet, but homo sapiens seem to have, through evolution, "had their reins of a pre-directed life loosened", where most humans suffer identity crises, go through neurosis, misconceptions about the world, etc. It's like this specie is almost free to roam and be what it can or wants to be, be it a furry other-kin asexual hipster, or a badass leather wearing chopper riding bike ganging man, to a gimp, or a rogue samurai bandit. It's easier to be a guy who just sits in his room going through the world thanks to the invention of the apes before him, i really need to find a job tho, so that's something I'll have to sort out unfortunately (or it could be good, the problem is the people, more than the task/job tbh, and it feels like people want to be that way, because it's so fucking easy to not be, or it seems, I don't think I can ever really see like the mind of another person or animal, but I can get close, maybe real close).

  672. Yaneli Bao  Well, using all the reasoning and speculated theories you are giving me in support of "humane" slaughtering. Can i apply this to Eating another human, is that Justified according to you?   Here are two things i will say in support of cannibalism :  We can digest the meat, humans have meat= I am evolved to eat humans. Come and tell me how this is not ethical? If i raise a child, after adopting it, may i kill and eat it simply because i raised it?  Wow, guys, Magical rules you have. Those who will say " yeah it's ok to kill and eat someone if you raise them (without torturing), are the same people who will condemn Cannibalism, but they don't even get the fucking fact that We are of the same ancestor, leleleleelwlewlelwelw. And no we're not "special" and "God" didn't make Everything for us( for the guys thinking in their heads) * God made me and made everything for me*. On a side note: Are you fucking kidding me? If according to you : This I believe: to eat humanely raised and slaughtered animals is not only ethical, it’s important to our humanity..   Now, explain to me, HOW EXACTLY is it ""Important"" to our humanity? People live perfectly healthy lives without ever even touching meat. What happened to scientific proof ? Lol. you are just like a group of Jihadists/ Other Religious fanatics, in the sense that they all get together and share the same belief and justify the same killings, have their own theories about everything. As well as implementing a "moral" code sticker in the end, just to feel good. TL;DR => Explain why is it not ethical to consume human flesh, when there's so many of us, what is so magical and sacred about it that you hold us ABOVE the ones you butcher, how come your "Justified killing for consumption"  does NOT include humanity. And Rape too, because sexual dimorphism, explain this bit as well. chop chop. Btw, Several species from lions to arachnids, do cannibalise others of their own, and if one person cannibalises, that(according to your theory) means the whole specie is evolved to cannibalise. .... are you shitting me? "Calorie Dense Food grew our brain", lol no. People are Equally stupid today, despite civilisation. Eating meat didn't make you smarter(or anyone else)  Cooking food Doest NOT "require" cooperation.  update Just read your last paragraph. Wow, your way of justifying this is so fucking shallow and ignorant. our eating animals is good for the animals. They exist because we care for them, and we care for and raise their offspring  Are you SHITTING ME ? LOL. Oh Yeahh! For surrrrrree,  Look at us, we're taking so much "Care" of these animals, by Killing unwanted offsprings AT BIRTH, Clamping their Mother to a constricting cage, so she can not move and so the pigs can keep eating, where chicken are forcefully stuffed with food, and where cows are hung upside down and then their throats are slit, so you can beat off to yourself eating meat, lol. It's like talking to a rapist and trying to explain why rape is bad, or to a pedophile, that fucking little kids is a no-no. Someone who's brain has been so hard-wired into one thought track, where getting off the track would mean Guiltiness, therefore you pick all the  theories that support your beliefs, and Ignore the Theories which reject and condemn your actions, lululul  Because Fuck Morality, empathy and compassion toward other lives(which was the main reason for the OP), IM A HUMAN MOTHERFUCKER I DO WHAT I WANT ape scream There is this thing, where one monkey wants to do the things that the other monkeys are doing around him, and since doing the same things like the other monkeys would make him accepted into the group, the monkey stops thinking and  accepts what he sees around himself as the way everything is meant to be, because then, what the monkey thought was good and cool to do, all of a sudden Is not so good and cool, and that would make the monkey look stupid What a waste of typing time. seriously, lewls.

  720. Watcheruvdatube yo  You Really Don't understand the whole way this works. do you?  You seem to suddenly gain Compassion and empathy for an animal who's "exotic"/"endangered", but lives and DOESN'T GET KILLED AND EATEN. Whereas, when it comes to OTHER ANIMALS, who also FEEL the Same pain as the "Exotic animals you care about", animals like cow, pig, etc., You seem to have some brainwash switch that clicks, and all the compassion and "care" and "empathy" are nowhere to be seen, lol. It's like saying Oh yeah, there's  just a few Native americans, let's care about them, and kill and eat the asians, because there's so many of them, LOL. (You probably seem to think that we humans are the standard setters of everything, and we are the creators of morality, and life values, but you are wrong. We are just INTERPRETERS. You probably feel like the cows and pigs and chicken that you ate, all WANTED to die and didn't mind  becoming your food, Like you are doing them a favour, Lol.  Nobody cares whether you feel guilt or pride when you eat meat. someone still dies for it everyday, and that doesn't change just because you "feel differently", your emotions don't count for shit in front of someone's life being taken for your joy, time and again, but you can not doubt, neither can you question something you and so many people around you have been doing for so long, because that would make so many people guilty(you included), it feels easier to just ignore it and keep doing what you do and pretend this way until you perish. Just because  a murderer didn't feel bad about killing his victim, it changes NOTHING about the actions that took place and the life that was taken. In a world where pigs were pets and dogs were in place of bacon, you would Love to eat dog, and would Love to have a Pig for a pet, because you accepted the state of the present world and accepted everything handed to you, to be moral and intrinsic.  You didn't think about what they felt, you just took standards of other monkeys around you, and applied them to your reality, without thinking twice. Then the same people come here and Try to make themselves feel like better people by telling themselves that they "care" about animals, if not a hypocritical double-standard, then what do i call it?

  725. johnny blaze  You should do more research about the deforestation thing. Yes of course, you can make anything look like a good thing, doesn't change anything though, it is still what it is, even if you love and support it. No, of  course killing someone in self-defense is not  wrong, because its DEFENSE, against someone who might have intent to kill, like i kill mosquitoes and cockroaches if they're around me, because i Have a GOOD reason, and it's not because they taste so good, it's because they can pass deadly diseases and Kill you miserably. I don't call everyone an asshole, but i do to most, for their inability to see themselves as wrong, because they have so many reasons that make them think thay they're right, but all their "facts" are arbitrary BS, made up by them and people around them to. Example: Slavery wasn't bad in the south and most of the USA for a long long time, i think. Now, imagine you're one of the slave owners. Would you like people telling you that keeping a slave is bad? Would you let them stop you from keeping your slave ? I'm sure they all had reasons that were good enough for them. They do it because they are SURE that it is NOT a BAD thing to do, but it's actually their inherent right and it's good for the society, lol. Do  you see the similarities between them and the ignorant ideology that you are a part of, and can't stop, because you have "reasons" or maybe you just enjoy it too much.  Having "pity" for one alive, suffering animal,  but then going around eating meat from hundreds others who died, is like Supporting women's right and justice but then being a part-time rapist.    Hope you don't find the allegories and analogies too offending, if not, you might see the point :D.

  728. johnny blaze Good now blame the culture. India eats a fuck load of animals, mkay?  there is a village near where i lived, they kill around 50 cattles in one day, as a sacrifice to some god, and then eat all the meat.  "waa waaa, my culture made me eat meat, waa waa, i was so helpless and now i can't help it". I was raised in a caste system, but i have rejected it entirely, i can sit and whine, " oh damn, i wanna treat these people better, but my caste system says to treat them as less than that, guess i had no choicezzz". Fucking grown ass adults playing victims lol. "these problems are being solved" Yeah, the problems of how to make the animals so fat that they can't even stand. Again, your moral shitgiving is only limited to the treatment of animals, whatever your standards of treatment might be. You still wanna eat them so you won't stop, your personal temporary joy is above their lives. Look, Pal, dude, bro, No matter what you say or pretend like you do, you are ALWAYS going to be a part of this pointless genocide. Maybe that's why you have stopped caring and started enjoying. Some day, when people will be smarter, they will look back at their dumb ancestors and how they used to preach about how eating meat was the shit to do and laugh. Lol, "dream world". You might be one of those people who still think we live in some badass hardcore nature world where its kill or be killed or something. Of course you know what you're talking about, doesn't verify anything you know as correct. Even Hitler knew what he was talking about, so did Stalin and Benito, does it make a difference, no it doesn't, because you only need say you are right and nothing can change it if you are stubborn enough. This is the ultimate conclusion:  Yeah, sureee, let's for a second, suppose killing billions of animals each year for the lols isn't evil. Still, no matter WHAT you do, NOT Being a part of this act will ALWAYS be a better thing to do, which inversely means the latter is MORE EVIL, no matter by what degree, so YEAH, i do feel like i am a better person, just like you exclude the thoughts of people who care more, i can negate you out, make you count as a non-factor in changing my viewpoint. Nonetheless, tell your children that it's better to kill and eat animals than it is to not, Otherwise your children might realise that you're an asshole who lied to them just to look like a better person. Go ahead live as you will and believe as may suit you, there is all eternity for this realisation to happen, you are not significant enough and neither am I.   AND STOP MAKING ME REPLY NOW! :C  *Peace out 420 ignite it.*

  744. projectvipe Yes, of course, you are the 190 Centimerer tall, Apex hunter Super ripped muscle guy with 6-packs who can participate in Quantum mathematics and do a full split  because you and your grandmas and pas ate some dead goat and chicken. You have done literally zero research to understand the evolution of historical agricultural practices.   Even total bullshit is fact, if you put a big enough idiot in front of it, an idiot who's desperate enough to find conviction in self. So delusional as to think that The Brain evolved because some fucks ate MEAT, not because of the collective intelligence of the human species and the keeping of records and transfer of previously gathered knowledge and archiving of experiences.  WOWOWOW, so People became INTELLIGENT and FIT, because they ATE MEAT? Alright cool,* let's believe that for a second*. Now; If eating meat makes you smarter, more physically superior, then how come the tribals in africa  aren't smarter than anyone or physically superior in every way than everyone who doesn't eat meat, they probably eat tons more than any of you pussies do.  and how come all my family aren't mentally handicapped and incapable of moving a single limb.  How come  30% of USA is OBESE, and that's OBESE, not overweight, that's, that's another Percentage. How come Half of the world still believes in God? *Tl;DR =>  My summary of you, and other's of your mindset; You, like most people I know, use the actions of your ancestors, and 'Human Nature' to do the things that you like, simply because of the personal pleasure you get, not because of need, but you like to tell yourself and each other that it is needed, because it just makes things easier. You like to think that there is a certain way a human is to be, again, simply because it helps your little bubble grow stronger. Ultimately losing the ability to consciously choose who you become and what you do, because you 'inherit' the delusion of humanity from your parents, etc.*  Talk about self entitling species, lol. *At the same time condemning Rape, murder, theft, slavery, racism, discrimination, etc,etc, when they are a MORE DEEPER aspect of "HUMAN NATURE", and the actions of "Your ancestors". Lol, funny.  But hey, don't change, just stick around people who will suck your lie if you suck theirs, and just play along, you will never have to change.  have fun, we're done here. <3 :D.

  749. Sam Hillman  (it's long, but read it, or.. well It's gonna feel like a waste of time lel)  You can respect the dignity of women, and still rape them, you can respect black people, and still enslave them. To humans, seemingly, their own ideas and the beliefs seem to take precedence of everything else. Who cares what you think,  your thoughts don't count for anything to cover your actions.  Doesn't the hypocrisy ever hit you? When your brain shows love to some animals, but never wants to eat them (humans, dogs, cats, babies,  and its suddenly able to create magical distinction between said creatures, and segregates them. Can I come into your house, kill everyone and eat them? Hey, I'll be sure that I have respect and dignity for them, you will probably forgive me then, since you forgive yourself each time. It's not a surprise, most of the world does this, it's typical human behaviour, and usual bending of facts and reality to suit your own construct. But heck, most of the world believes there's a flying old geezer in the sky/heaven, so. Bro, you're not fooling anyone else in the end. The whole point is to stop clouding reality with what you want it to be and to accept your actions for what they DO, not what you THINK of them. On your deathbed, do you really wanna, maybe at that point, realise everything you did? But what can you do then?(this happens).  It's gonna be like an episode of Punk'd, but you will have punk'd yourself, for your whole life, and there's nobody else to blame. ______Moving to the point of respecting earth and only taking what you need to survive_____ : Remember first, just be honest to yourself, you don't have to think outloud, so just don't lie to yourself.  Now, every time you killed an animal for food, was it the only thing you could eat or you would die? Was there food on the shelves? was there food in the fridge? was there food  in the supermarket? No? Well, then you have disgraced your beliefs, by lying to yourself.   You don't get to use the excuses of the natives and other present tribals, who had/have nothing else to survive on, and LITERALLY, THEIR VERY LIVES DEPENDED ON IT, on the hunting.  Let me tell you why you are susceptible to delusion : Look around you, around the world, you see those people pretending to talk to god and feeling like they're being touched by ghosts and gods,etc?  You are made up of the same things, and so am I.  I really hope, that you face a time where you rebuild your ideas, and not inherit the ideas of those before you, who just (even though unknowingly) pass their ignorance and delusions down to you and you just take them as word and never question it.

  750. Sam Hillman  Every elk, every hare, every deer, every hen, every fish, You thank and You honour... Well good for you, But hundreds of animals died, and for what? A person who gets to eat three meals a day, "sacrificed" them, and then told himself that they were for his "survival".   I've lived in a SECOND WORLD COUNTRY all my life, in Some mountain village, where we didn't even have electricity half of the time, and I MANAGED to never kill anything to "survive", so how is it so hard for everyone else? Lol.(I did kill ants who entered my house and spiders, when i was little, because I was phobic, but not anymore, because I Prefer to be wrong once and correct myself than pretending to be right the whole time.) Ok here's a funny scenario: Imagine, all the animals that you rescued, imagine if someone somehow, told them everything you did with the other animals, I wonder, if you could understand them, what would they say? :|   The very fact that you can't see through your self-preservation, can't understand their emotions, can't actually see what you are doing even after decades, day in day out, and actually prefer to go through the trouble of making up random 'reasons' instead, tells me enough about your love for nature.  It's like this :  "Nobody's racist, in a group that only consists of racist people, who are racist to others."  Only the people outside their delusion can point at them and say "Those people are fkin racist yo." Because the ones outside, have acknowledged and stopped, actively.  Same goes for a group of hunters/meateater/etc,.  OF COURSE, you won't Be a bad guy and nobody will scrutinize you, in a group of people who do the same things as you and condone the same actions, because it supports each other's delusions and in turn, your's.  And when I step outside that mentality, and Look at you, from the Point of view of the animals you Pointlessly kill, and the Crap you spew to defend it, sickens me, but worse yet, kills around 56 BILLION innocent animals, EVERY YEAR, I'm sure mother nature would be proud.

  755. The peace maker (first, this comment, someone had reported it as spam apparently, just restored it, so replying now)  Alrighty, So I will first, give my reasons( which are not arbitrary, because they have a non-selfish cause). : 1: My morals include every sentient life, because as biology shows, other animals are built like me,and suffer like me, possess a nervous system like me(This is what gives you your consciousness, then what would you suggest, to be the Inhibitor of emotions and pain for other animals? . I do kill beings, like mosquitoes and cockroaches, that too, only because they work as mediums of Diseases( especially if you're living in India, lol).. 2: I do not do it out of religion or some indoctrination. That is a pathetic reason to not kill something.. "just because someone/god told you not to". I do it, Because I(and you, and 95% of the human world), LITERALLY, have a choice of Tens of thousands of products, which nobody had to suffer/die for, and to just walk into a store and buy and eat them.   Nobody dies any day, just because I felt like having a snack. 3: You are wrong about only monkeys and dolphins having 'consciousness'.  I'll put links below. Also, If you might have, by any accident, read René Descartes' notes on animals, that guy was/is an idiot.  It's like a priest saying " Boom ya'll been blessed " and suddenly everyone feels blessed, because it supports their mindset. 4 The BIGGEST THING, Choice. WE, Unlike ANY other animal, have the ability to GROW our own food, the Ability to CHOOSE what we eat and HOW many times we eat, etc,etc and in tonnes and tonnes, we can cultivate fucking land, we can HELP every species on this planet, and fix it, which no other species can do CONSCIOUSLY.   Yet we choose to Enslave(this is what happens, nothing else), torture, mentally abuse them, oh and then hang them upside down, and kill them, because some animal thinks it needs to kill to live. thinks not knows. They bleed the same fkin blood, have you heard them scream? man... Now, I'll just post a few links. They're not to buy your sympathy, or any other arbitrary thing. If you go to these links, and do choose to stop now, DO NOT do it because I compelled you to, do it because you finally understand and Choose to do it, understanding your actions, you will start seeing the others as more than just flesh and bones, food.        (all this from a non-spiritual, non-religious, etc person)  Links:  Animal Consciousness: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_consciousness#Cambridge_Declaration_on_Consciousness Wasteful farming of animals, when the land could be used to feed the hungry:  http://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-food/meat-wastes-natural-resources/   ( yeah, its peta, i don't enjoy them too much myself, but this is data.) animal 'treatment' :  http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xe0x5v_if-slaughterhouses-had-glass-walls_animals  (The video does consist of some suggestive sad sound, but ignore that, because all of them still suffered all their lives and then died.. well almost died sometimes their neck would be cut so they'd just hang there helplessly, and you should see how)

  765. LupusLupus  I'll just repeat myself;  yes, we have 'evolved' to eat meat and plants, *but since you are justifying something simply on the basis of 'us being evolved' for it, will also have you justify this;  "I am stronger than women, I am made to use strength, I am made to subdue women and rape them to spread my genes, because I am evolved to do this". You justify an action, SIMPLY BECAUSE you feel like you were made for it' ? No. You are wrong. EVERY ACTION, outside your physical functions, which goes outwards, IS UNDER YOUR CONTROL and You choose and wish upon the death of every animal who dies for your 'survival' or should I say, Lunch breakfast dinner, ah the  Cruel cruel human environment, the abundance of food, the lack of predators, you could live, Literally by doing nothing and collecting social security, and that's not even the minimum, but you know that and continue to kill animals, simply because of their taste.  *You can make a cow digest meat, doesn't mean it's good, OH AND I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT MORAL IMPLICATIONS, DO THEY EVEN EXIST FOR YOU FOLK?  Well, Maybe some of it does, but pitifully, it is limited to the same specie, because of the benefits you can reap by showing other humans how much you love them, I wonder if you people realise, how fake their emotions are, how full of holes your morality is. * "Apparently, mother nature seems to be a good enough excuse to deliberately torture, kill and eat animals because you love the taste, BUT not good at all, when it comes to raping women out of instinct and that's not even killing them." Explain this. Someone's life is apparently worth more than some 'vital nutrients' to you, and if you actually wanted to be as healthy as you can, you would have put in more physical and habitual effort to be so, Instead you jump to eating animals and telling yourself "hey, it's ok, since it is.. healthy. yeah, ok."

  770. LupusLupus Actually no, Male animals do use force for mating, and people do it too, I'm not saying that's a justification, I used your principles to compare it. Btw, humans mostly FAILED(And still do in the tribes of Amazon etc) hunting attempts, and many often died early of injury(Excavated bodies prove this), you can already see by comparing yourself to a wild beast, you and me and everyone else, are nothing compared to them, humans mostly scavenged, until later in time when inventions were made, so Evolution-wise, "You didn't evolve to hunt, you evolved to build tools and think morally, and to care about more than just yourself or your group, but I guess that's not happening".  Another thing, my compassion for life isn't "Worthy",  it's just something that "makes me not kill billions of animals on the excuse of animality and apparently uncontrollable urges" and i CHOOSE it, unlike you, who just thinks that it is something that's just there and it's just meant to be like that, it's in the genes and and might as well pretend like there's no moral implications despite how obvious it is. Or maybe you just use it as justification to eat something you love to eat and don't really care, so make the whole idea about caring to be pointless, to solve your cognitive dissonance. Such a thing as "mother nature" doesn't exist for me, it is  MY CONSCIOUS CHOICE, to DO and NOT DO the things in my existence, I don't pretend to be a helpless animal who can't control anything and is just running around on impulses and urge to consume and kill, You still somehow think that IT IS BETTER TO KILL BILLIONS OF ANIMALS EVERY YEAR, AND PRETEND LIKE ITS A GOOD THING THAN TO JUST LEAVE THEM THE FUCK ALONE AND HELP THEM INSTEAD.  Something is fucked up about that. What a wasted existence, spent on a delusion of "surviving" in a world where you don't have to do shit, the safest animal on earth, pretends everyday, like life is so fucking hard, I could literally, do nothing all my life, and get by, How many times have you had to fight of a predator to survive Lol??!!  People just like to pretend like their lives are something else and basking in it all their lives, than trying to understand reality and trying to maintain a LESS FUCKED UP VERSION of it. Culture is bullshit and does not justify any action, because in its core, it is just some stupid hobby or act done by a bunch of people somewhere that just got popular. How the fuck does someone justify anything on that?  But of course you will, your mind is trying to build a dam against reality, and any lie will do, as long as it is on your side. Your Delusion of Sentience is limited to humans, because your Ability to understand animals, is SO LIMITED, further enforced by the need to find excuses which justify your actions, yet you have the gall to ASSERT that you Are the only ones with sentience, even in the moment of an animal being butchered, It crying with blood coming out of its eyes,  yet you cannot see a face there, I cannot fathom the deliberate blindness of that mind,  YET IT GOES ON TO TELL ME, THAT IT FEELS FOR THE ANIMALS, LOL!  That's like raping women and saying "Yeah, but I respect them ok and I don't kill them even" Or like Yeah I fuck little kiddos and beat nigeros, but I RESPECT THEM so fuck moral implication, because a little idea in my head is more important Than MY ACTIONS WHICH KILL DAILY

  780. LupusLupus  You are wrong when you say "humans come first and everything else second, just like most animals." Example: Human dies trying to save dog. Example: Dogs die to save human companion.  Go watch a video. You just pretend like it's all just a part of this 'natural' machine, that killing and dying just happens so it's ok to make it worse. People like you are the same people who destroy the whole environment, because "Humans come first".  The SAME IDEOLOGY as you. You might wanna think about the kind of person you actually are, not the one you think yourself to be. I do not owe anyone any respect, especially not to people who act like victims of biology and just go on killing and eating and enslaving, all the while, condoning the living shit out of it, lol. Since everyone owes everyone respect according to you, Respect the ISIS, respect the Terrorists everywhere, Respect The Nazis, and the slavers, Etc. If not, then stop saying that and learn what a double standard is, and how it makes an idiot out of oneself. I understand my kin and it sickens me, that the most intelligent animal would go on killing innocent creatures because they feel like it and because they lack the understanding of animal behaviour, pretending to be helpless, again if billions of people can believe in god and all that shit, this all doesn't seem all too crazy, lol   Fuck my kin, lol. my existence doesn't belong to anyone else's ideas, at least not if they're unsubstantiated bs, simply created to make oneself feel better.  You are losing your one single tiny chance of existing, to someone's idea of what a human is supposed to be. AND ultimately leaving a pile of dead animals who suffered all their life because of you for your coming generations to look at in disgust. A person who couldn't give more of a shit about anyone else, as long as the animals his life depended on were not kicking him out.  Have fun with it, I'm done here.

  794. Kraydak3 Some things you didn't consider, I'll add them here, and you can recalculate the sanity. Btw, I DO KNOW, that humans are Omnivores(able to CHOOSE what to eat), therefore I CHOOSE, and don't pretend to be a helpless animal who needs to bite flesh to live. 1: You yourself ADMIT, that Humans have the CHOICE to eat either meat OR vegetables. That means Every animal you have eaten, didn't have to die for you to survive. That's why you are lower in your justification than a wild animal, who hunts because it will STARVE AND DIE, which you haven't ever even come close to experiencing, so yeah, stop using the situations of wild animals who kill just so they can live, as your excuses to brutally murder all those animals, in the name of "survival". 2: Lions don't kill every gazelle they see in the open. They ONLY HUNT WHEN THEY NEED TO.  Well, their "need" might be more serious than your " Oh I'm feeling like a burger, I guess I need it or I'll die". They ALSO lack the option of having ten thousands of products to choose from, by walking into walmart or ANY place where food is easily available for "money". You can either look at other people to justify your beliefs, or you can go do some research, and if even after that you think you're incapable of changing, then please, by all means, stay the same. *Btw, this is not "morally self-righteous bs".  It's factually moral way of life based on evidence of suffering and the lack of its need in my survival. Simple. I don't need it, so I don't kill them, and neither do I pretend like I need to, just so I can get some taste in my mouth.  How greedy, inconsiderate and self centred can people get?  *Enough to kill and eat anything that doesn't scream in their own language, and to give moral reasons as to why it is great to do.* And think you're 'good', because someone said you were? lel.

  795. Kraydak3 You either eat meat, or you don't. Simple. I get all the information about you that I need for this conversation.  The very fact that you call yourself an omnivore, should mean that you will "EAT ALL", because that's what it translates to; " Devour Everything", lol. It also means you should eat worms and maybe dead people because they have all the goodies. 1: Human bodies are PERFECTLY FINE without meat, thanks. I don't need you to tell me your noisy words, because I AM FUCKING ALIVE and probably better off physically, than a good 85% of the USA, and I've lived all my life, and never eaten meat.  But people, with their excuses, just like religious people say "We would have died if not for god."  Nigga shut up. 2: No, you don't eat them for sustenance, if that was all you cared about, you would eat ANY ANIMAL, THE FIRST ANIMAL IN FRONT OF YOU, NOT THE ONES YOU FUCKING LOOOOOOOVE THE TASTE OF.  Stop being a fucking hypocrite and just admit that you do it only for the fucking lovely taste and just can't help it <3. 3: There is a difference Between HUNGER and STARVATION.  Learn the difference. Holy shit, the excuses. Btw, here, have fun <3  >>>>>>>  Debunking the paleo diet: Christina Warinner at TEDxOU Do some research, it's for your own good, might help you live less lies. PEOPLE ARE NOT SMART BECAUSE OF YOUR "BRAIN EVOLUTION BY MEAT MAGIC", LOL!  IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF COLLECTED INFORMATION WHICH PILED UP THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, AS PEOPEL KEPT RECORDING EVENTS AND WAS ACCESSIBLE TO THE NEXT GENERATION TO PICK UP FROM, PEOPLE DIDN'T MAKE ROCKETS BECAUSE "THEY EVOLVED TO" NO, IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTED BY ALL THE PEOPLE BEFORE THEM WHICH LED TO THAT HAPPENING, GOD DAMMIT, ALLAH DAMMIT, YOU LITTLE BALOON >.<!!!!! COORELATION DOES NOT IMPLY CAUSALITY niga pls, lel <3 Example: "The water is flowing out of the tap." MY hands are wiggling while the water is flowing. This means Me Wiggling my hands, Makes the water flow. Genius." lelel (do yourself a favour, and srsly, just go watch the video, don't waste your and my time arguing if you're not gonna listen to anyone else other than people who think just like you because they do the same things like you and need the same justification, lwl.)

  798. Kraydak3 Stereotypical.  "Apparently my little jibe about you being a trust-fund baby hit a little close to home because you spent you're whole post on some rant about how people don't need jobs." No, this clearly shows how important you think it is to get a job, which leads you to be one of the people who've lost their minds to it, lel. You use too many lame emoticons for you to be over the age of 18. <---That's me conceding a point. Wrong again, like with everything else on a daily basis. Ah, the prey of conjecture and self-elevating delusion, as usual. Concede your idiocy, must be easier :D :D :D :B :B :3 :> :C:V    :U. I work out 3 days a week (work and home keep me too busy for anything else) and feel I'm in the best shape of my life. To keep my energy up I usually eat plenty of animal protein in the morning before I start my workout. Animal Protein to keep my 'energy up', LOL!!!! You have no fucking clue what even comprises the 'animal protein' LOL, what a stupid term, go read a book, or your kids will grow up to be Ignorant Idiots like you.  If you were so worried about animals you might consider the effects of all the electricity you use on their natural environment. Right now there's coal burning to run the computer you're reading this on which in turn releases greenhouse gasses that have the potential to kill far more animals then humans could ever hope to hunt/fish/slaughter. Wrong, no proof, no evidence, you don't even know the fucking terms, other than what some 'pal' you picked it up from, "burning coal" "killing animals with the gases from my Laptop" LOLOLOLOLO. WOWOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!! Nah, man Die like the idiot you are, I'm so fucking done listening to such baseless bullshit, too bad you live in a world where 'your beliefs' are 'respected',  Just try not to make any kids around you, into another Self-deluding prick who uses excuses as the above, LOL!! Wow, the very fact that you wrote all that thinking that it was perfectly sensible, wow you, m8, are one ignorant animal, maintaining ignorant thoughts, because without them, you can't think of yourself as you do now. You'll probably just die randomly one day, and I won't even hear about it. Loveu, take care <3 , don't turn the kids around you, into machines that spew your kind of ignoranct, self-righteous bullshit, just keep it limited to yourself and die with it, Appreciate it, k thanks <3.

  805. Teddy Lo  "Big difference between kill for sustenance and killing for profit/game/sport/fun. Every original race of peoples lived with animals, as well as survived off of them. Respect and balance is what's missing here". "sustenance" huh? lol... Sneaky ambiguity of words. There is a difference between sustenance and survival(the word I was using). Just because I walk into a KFC, doesn't mean that eating the chicken is gonna "sustain me harder" than eating something that didn't have someone killed over a burger.  Don't lie to yourself, telling yourself that you " eat 3 meals a day to "sustain" yourself, LOL. Now, for some perspective. *Big difference between keeping a slave to work in important sectors like the cotton farms and  Keeping a slave for personal Profit/game/sport/fun. Every Original race of people lived with the africans, as well as surviving off of them by making them slaves.  Respect and balance is what is missing here.* How does your mind create such sneaky exceptions and double standards?? Deweewwwwmmmm! Look at all the overweight and obese people around you, who love to tell you how great and healthy meat is and how they're the living example, then look at yourself, then look at them again. The delusion of "sustenance" is big. You don't add animal organs to your food because you wanna "Sustain" yourself, you don't even know the proper nutritional constitution of the food, meaning the only reason you did it till now, was because you just really really love chicken, and other animals too.  But nice effort at "sustenance" gr8 8/8 irl no bs m8.

  824. Mustafa Shams "Okay."  What does okay mean? It's relative.  If you are Living OUTSIDE human society, outside the availability of  other food, then you are part of the wild, and may hunt in sufficient amounts for survival, and may be hunted as well.  When it comes to "animals without nervous systems", They are even more far away from us evolution-wise, and we understand their biology even less. I wouldn't eat them if I didn't absolutely need to like my life depended on it, because I can just eat something else from the Millions of shops and restaurants, and save myself the trouble. Is your desire for getting a taste on your tongue, greater than someone's right to not be enslaved and tortured their entire lives, along with all the following children and their generations? For most of the human world, it is, and maybe that is one of the reasons that it makes it so easy for other people to jump in, since they can justify the same action by seeing others doing it with impunity. But then again, this species has always been full of itself and used itself as the measure of everything in this world and its value to them. Nobody is forced to do it, people just get used to it and just prefer to do it, because they will never pay the price. Humans do it to other humans all the time, maybe you are biased and don't pay  much attention to that, but yeah, people killing other people for joy and fun, is a thing. You should look at your own species to understand yourself and the things you believe and why you believe them.

  828. Mustafa Shams Wrong, we NEED cars, if we want to reach more than 5 kilometres away without getting exhausted. It's LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE to work in a city, while walking to work.  You're using poorly constructed justifications, which shows why you still think that you're right, instead of TRYING to understand How you could be Wrong. Dude, I think you should Type "Psychology" on google, then open the wikipedia page and then learn some of the terms, You'll learn something. "Why do we eat meat while we can eat just vegetables? The same reason we drive cars instead of walking around." <  You need to change the way you think, or you'll always have an idea of this world, an idea which only exists to protect your 'beliefs', and that is not reality. So if you don't change, and keep thinking that you're "intelligent", you will die a life of lies which you told yourself. Meat is not just meat. "it" had a face before, they had a mother, a personality, thoughts, Feelings, emotions, and other animals they cared about. the suffered every minute from their birth, and lived as slaves, because you wanted a different taste in the food. The car, was always dead, because it was never alive.  But the "meat", sadly for you, all this time, was a walking, talking, feeling animal. The only thing was, that it didn't look like your kind of animal, so you and your people discriminate against them with ease, and use them for personal Gain, Because Killing them doesn't put you in trouble, and nobody rejects you, because they all want the same thing; the flesh of a dead animal, killed simply for their personal ENJOYMENT and ENTERTAINMENT. &*Not for survival.*

  834. I.Q. NOTORIOUS Trying to insult Islam is only going to hurt u on DAY OF JUDGMENT. I'm just tryin to help u if u wanna learn something u haven't put much time learning. Bro, you know that 80% of the WORLD, DOES NOT BELIEVE IN YOUR allah. Your allah, is so ALL POWERFUL, that he convinced 20 % of the world, WOW, So fucking almighty, lol. Don't talk to me about learning you dumb duckling. All your peopel ever did, was make up their own little book, where they claim reality, so they don't have to put REAL EFFORT INTO LEARNING. Lol, YOUR WHOLE LIFE REVOLVES AROUND A FAIRY TALE, Made by a pedophile. You pulled the day of judgement right out of your asshole, like mohammad pulled this book. Here's some QUOTES for you. Educate yourself on your fairy tale. 1::Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek them from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication. So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due, but if you agree mutually after the requirement (has been determined), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise. Qur'an 4:24 2::Abu Said al-Khudri said: "The apostle of Allah sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the apostle of Allah were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Quranic verse, "And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hands possess". That is to say, they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period." [The Quran verse is 4:24] Abu Dawud 2:2150 3::And, forbidden to you are, wedded women, those with spouses, that you should marry them before they have left their spouses, be they Muslim free women or not; save what your right hands own, of captured [slave] girls, whom you may have sexual intercourse with, even if they should have spouses among the enemy camp, but only after they have been absolved of the possibility of pregnancy [after the completion of one menstrual cycle]; this is what God has prescribed for you. Qur'an 4:24 "From 4:24, it can be rightly assumed, that the Qur'an does not see any wrong-doing in Muslims having sex with captive women even if these women are married and their husbands are still alive. This clearly indicates that the Qur'an allows rape, as captive women, even in the unlikely case of agreeing to sexual intercourse, would still be having that intercourse under duress." ""If you don't cover yourself, you can't blame the men for raping you."" > Yeah, I misphrased it, now, let me REPHRASE IT. "If you are a sex slave of a muslim man, you are his property, and he can do what he wants with you."   Now, Ask me again, LOL

  837. TheGiantKiller8 SO the quran, first, JUSTIFIES AND CONDONES TAKING SLAVES AS MANY AS YOU WANT. Then Tells you "“Have you seen him who takes his low desires for his god? Are you a guardian over them? Or do you think that most of them hear or understand?  They are but as the cattle; nay, they are farther astray from the path.” (The Holy Quran, 25:43–44.)" That is an OXYMORON, BY LITERAL DEFINITION. OK listen, Let's do this. Live your life, and if there comes a point in it, that you understand the reality of every single religion, which will happen the instant you learn about islam's core. Come post a comment here, admitting to being wrong. And I shall do the same myself. Because You can't change someone with faith, at least not if they have nothing left to take shelter behind, even though a thing such as faith, is non-existent. I guess one must let the diseased understand its own condition and seek help, rather than forcing them to acknowledge it. Yeah. Or just remember this comment. When you look back,  and if you do, you will see from the future, that you could have opened your mind here, and freed your existence from a power hungry, sword wielding, 13 woman keeping(including girls before age of 10) barbaric conqueror's book, which he created to collect illiterate people and take up arms for a new god who'd call them special, but you chose to wait until the day when it becomes impossible to avoid. Maybe better late than never. Since all religions are dying slowly, you will either change by realising the truth, or because everyone around you is changing; the same thing you did when you got turned into a muslim, of course you weren't born one, lol.  You just got lucky to be born in a muslim house, not hindu,sikh,christian,jew,jain,and the other THOUSANDS OF RELIGIONS. Your WHOLE EXISTENCE, is BASED ON WHICH WOMAN shot you out of their vagina, and then into this world, and it conincidentally happened to be a muslim house, that's the core of your being; "*You got lucky*".  If it was in another religion's house, then you would be defending THAT religion, And you would NOT EVEN HAVE A CONCEPT OF ALLAH'S EXISTENCE, BECAUSE HE ONLY EXISTS AFTER YOU ARE TOLD THAT HE DOES.  But it's your struggle, I did what I needed to, now it's your choice, lel.

  840. omar Fadzil Lol, It's the SAME GOD. How the FUCK do you People have DIFFERENT RULES FOR THE SAME RELIGION. You do know that there is only going to be ONE WAY to reach your allah, And What the fuck is it, that you think YOUR WAY OF THINKING is the right way? That's the same shit that EVERY RELIGIOUS PERSON THINKS. Because otherwise, THEY WOULD NOT BE THINKING and BELIEVING IN THAT SHIT. It's not JUST THE SHIAS. You ALSO Are the REASON WHY ISLAMIST MENTALITY EXISTS, because ultimately, IT WILL EXIST AS LONG AS ISLAM DOES, BECAUSE IT'S ALL IN THE BOOK. Even among Muslims, you cherry pick what to believe and think, in your little circles, and you just say something like this in your head; "Yeah, I and my people are probably the right ones." "Allah hasn't hit me with a lightning strike, I must be right." And Keep Ignoring all the contradictions your Allah makes to itself. First it is perfect, then it can't even stop some people from raping a woman of HIS OWN RELIGION.  HE really doesn't fucking exist OUTSIDE the People who BELIEVE IN HIM( and believing is NOT the proof of something being real, too bad if you think it is). Same goes for EVERY SINGLE RELIGION, lol. You know what. Stick to your belief. Just remember, JUST REALLY REALLY KEEP HOPING THAT YOU ARE THE RIGHT ONES(and by YOU I don't mean ALL MUSLIMS, just the little group that you belong to, since there are variations of belief among different tribes and sects, and god, according to your all knowing book, isn't a Little bitch who you can push around and be like "come on, let us in, lol, it's no biggie, it's basically the same thing", OR IT IS ETERNITY OF TORTURE FOR YOU & EVERYONE ELSE WHO IS OF THE SAME BELIEF AS YOU. And I can easily tell that you DO NOT FOLLOW EVERY SINGLE WORD OF THE QURAN AS IT IS WRITTEN. AND BY EVERY SINGLE WORD, I LITERALLY MEAN' EVERY SINGLE DAMN WORD TO THE LAST WORD IN THE BOOK. Guess who might not be getting into the orgy heaven? Hehe. This is what happens when people lose their shit over patriarchal Fairy tales of Rape and murdering in the name of a superior being/ imaginary friend,, the two favourite things of depraved barbarians.  There must be something charming about it that you love so much, Maybe it's the heaven, maybe it's the sense of importance you get, like "you are special and hold a special place in this world".  Fucking self-important apes, so much so, that you would rather enjoy a nice life of delusion, imagining shit you were promised, and not actually doing jack shit. Typical. Remember, there would be NO ISIS or AL QUAEDA OR ANY OTHER SUCH TERRORIST GROUP, because they ALL FOLLOW THE STRICT RULES OF THE QURAN AND DO BASE THEIR WHOLE WORK IN THE NAME OF ISLAM, AND THAT's THE ONLY WAY THEY GET RECRUITS.  You think Atheists are the ones who are in the ISIS militia?  You Think that they would be able to say "Hey come we're gonna blow things up and  kill people because we want to" and people would just join them? NO. ALLAH IS THE COLLECTING FORCE OF MONSTERS. By simply saying "Come die in the name of allah and be granted eternal salvation and relief from a miserable life, instantly", Tens of thousands of people will just jump in and start killing anyone they are told to, BECAUSE THEY ARE DOING IT FOR GOD; FOR YOUR GOD. Yes, surprise, You have the SAME GOD. NO, every single one of them, went there, because it is written in the quran, to commit jihad, as it is one of the greatest things you can do, or some shit like that. I don't wanna waste too much time in a fiction book, explaining things I already know. If you want to stay IGNORANT, Please DO SO.  Since that is the ONLY WAY YOUR RELIGION STAYS INNOCENT TO YOU.  <3 But you will probably just feel offended after reading this, and just disregard is as hard as you can, as to not start using your brain to criticize islam, because that gets you MInus points in allah's eyes or some other shit your family told you, as THEY were told by the ones before them, up to the time when one of your Ancestors has Islam FORCED upon them, because that's how it spread, by Killing and conquering. Go Read a fucking book. And not the quran for once <3.  Have fun, good luck in life, lol.

  849. omar Fadzil Lol, again, more proof of your own intellectual lowness.  You do realise that whether I read it in English, or Arabic, or Urdu, the TEXT STILL MEANS THE SAME. "You probably don't know how to eat food since you have never eaten food from your eyes."  What the fuck does it matter what the means of receiving are, when the Subject at hand(quran information) is received.  DUDE, You are the one who got their information from a 1400 something year old book, you delusional turd. Now you Believe it SIMPLY BECAUSE YOUR MOMMY AND DADDY believed in it, and because it is the ONLY RELIGION YOU WERE EVER TAUGHT, OUT OF THE TOTAL OF OVER 40,000 RELIGIONS WHICH MAKE THE SAME CLAIM OF GOD AS YOUR BOOK DOES (this means they all are wrong, since they all are written by people to steal land and rape and to enslave whoever they want(and Islam succeeds in this part tho) LOL!!!!  What a pathetic reason to believe in something. Keep it up, dumbass. Foolish lives, I guess, deserve what they get in the end. Stay ignorant, it helps you think like you know something, since your whole brain is filled to the brim with Islam (which is all a lie), and whatever gets you off.  Since you believe in non-true shit, you HAVE TO UNDERMINE THE IMPORTANCE OF REAL THINGS, LIKE SCIENCE, AND NON-RELIGION, So that you don't have to work towards them, and can just be like "Nah, my allah is great, I don't need to educate myself, Allah loves me for my ignorance and false pretence of knowledge. Ps, He doesn't exist. Which also makes your religion pointless. You Actually think that your god exists? LOL, Even after you FAIL TO DEFEND HIM, AND ALL YOU COME UP WITH, ARE STUPID PSEUDO EXPLANATIONS. ONE WOULD THINK THAT GOD'S MEN WOULD HAVE A MORE EASIER TIME EVEN PROVING THEIR ALL KNOWING AND EVER PRESENT GOD. But here you are, even failing to come up with a decent counter argument.  How pathetic. I'll just keep rubbing your idiocy on your face, since you are not the kind who's ready to admit being wrong, let alone about their best imaginary friend. Seriously, Scream and search for allah, lol. You will never find him. But you might as well go out and try, since you're wasting your existence believing in him anyway. :D

  851. omar Fadzil No, Actually, When you claim that Islam is the Only religion (since there can't be another god with allah, because that is the base of islam, obviously), it means, that EVERY SINGLE PERSON YOU KNOW WHO IS NOT A MUSLIM, WILL BURN IN HELL, FOR ETERNITY, AND NEVER GET TO HEAVEN, AND IS AN INFIDEL WHO DESERVES TO DIE IF THEY DON"T CONVERT TO ISLAM. I am an atheist, because no god has proven themselves to me, and all religions are based around controlling people and power, and if not, are still lacking in any proof, thus, are false until proven. By the way, an atheist doesn't believe in hell or heaven, because those two come with religion, so no, you don't belong in hell, because THERE IS NO HELL, since there is no god to create it. Do you get it now? And THINK a little about what I wrote in the first sentence. You can't believe a lie and a truth at the same time, and you can't believe in god, and believe in the real world at the same time. Remember, I am not joking, when I tell you, that there are over 40,000 religions like Islam, which have their own gods, tens of thousands of them, and they have their own promises and claims. The only reason you are muslim, is because in the 1400 years of islam, it KILLED most of the religions, and TOOK OVER THE LANDS, and established a caliphate, Like christianity did as well, along with other religions, too. (See, I told you they're the same, because the same greedy men made them, to control land power and women. Also, If you go back in your family tree, there will be someone who was either killed over islam, or was forced to converting into islam, like many Indians and africans were forced into christianity or given the "first come first religion serve", and also because you happened to be BORN INTO A MUSLIM FAMILY BY CHANCE.  You are just conveniently only counting the time you want, which is the flaw in your reasoning .

  879. John Smith, that is not fact, that is your assumption. "laughing makes my guard go down" what the fuck, you know this is a subjective opinion and not fact, right? It's also no alternative fact, so don't, just don't. I know creating space to put in words like 'hooked line and sinker' seem cool, but really, this whole crap about 'if you make a joke, you're open to suggestive manipulation' is something you pulled out your backside. Like people who voted trump, didn't get told funny jokes that brought their guards down -*They simply wanted all the racist, self-absorbed, american-pride garbage that he promised without cracking jokes, and the people gobbled it up like they've been gobbling McDiabetes and KilledFuckingChikens all these years and dying of cancer and heart disease lol. I'm sure "I am the one who's been brainwashed". You also assumed I am liberal, I'll take a 'wild' guess that your 'enemies' are liberals. And not because of good reasons, but because you're the one who actually fell for tribal behavior and bait, because it feels so true to you. You don't realise that liberals, right, left, Democrat, Republican, alt-right, they're ALL TOOLS made by the people who want to keep you busy feeling like you're doing something important, while they slowly, but literally, come to own entire countries, the land, and the people in it. Because people like you are busy squirming over pathetic fucking ideologies, that count to nothing more than random club memberships, and that wafer thin fantasy is what your identity hinges on. I'll take another guess -You actually just got triggered by what I said about Trump. Would not respond the same way if I said EXACTLY THE SAME THING to Hillary, Obama, or Berine lol. But you fooled yourself into creating this stack of text to attack, while hiding the original intent, even from yourself perhaps. It is a guess, so I don't have to be on mark with everything yo.

  883. I still have moral qualms about calling people who manipulate refugees into becoming prostitutes, etc, as the "More bad", when the very people they manipulate, after receiving freedom, continue abusing and using other animals for their own sensory pleasure. Like they consider only their own kind as those who can suffer, in desperation to elevate their own selves to a level that "deserves attention and saving". Sigh, nobody said monsters can't become victims. The whole issue is with the arbitrary, self-serving morals of this whole fucking specie, lol. Ready to do and believe anything to have the world revolve around themselves as center of "that which matters". Does it surprise you that people can so easily abuse others, EVEN WITHIN THEIR OWN SPECIE? This is what happens when people grow up desensitized to real vileness, which they themselves, willingly become a part of, and then have to defend till the end because of personal vested interests and social-standing. Poor princess, trying so hard to do good, going out everyday, when she could simply *be better by not doing all the evil shit on the way to saving 200 girls in 16 years, while eating 200+ chicken, cows, pigs, etc, Every fucking year, loelllllll. remember, kids; It's not about whether it has a human face or it is a popular pet in your country, or how cute you think it looks like. The only thing that matters, is the creature's ability to suffer, and all you need to do to be subhuman- is to cause such suffering willingly, while being superbly negligent of any facts, and thinking you're the one who deserves notice when you suffer. However, I really did enjoy the documentary for reals. Just those chopped chicken legs sticking out of Princess' bowl in the party, made me realise how much she's destroyed while 'saving' 200 girls, who were not going to be killed anyway. Sad humans, trying to fit their own warped standards of 'becoming a good person 101'.

  894. TheAwillz Here's the thing, I was typing a more elaborate reply, but the page gimped and now I'll just have to summarize it because at the end of my last typing, I realised that you were just defending the other guy because you had similar beliefs, and it just bugged you lel. "I am not the typical anything, you don't know my gender, age or nationality, therefore your argument is void."->>  *Oh, look at me, the person knows what I am talking about, the only thing needed when determining your behaviour. While I hatefully spill my guts trying to defend my delusions, but knows NOTHHHHHING About How "Old I am", "where I live" "Which country I was ejected out of a vagina in" FUCKING CHECKMATE, HE GOT NOTHING ON MEEEEE!!!*  Sheesh, lol..... It's like entering a battle with all your cards shown, and pretending like nobody knows what's gonna hit them, lololololo. ""Attacking an opponents character in order to invalidate their argument", is the definition of Abusive Ad Hominem. That is what you are doing in the example of you calling me the "typical "your an idiot" clown"." Jesus fucking fuckty christ. * THE ONLY THING WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, IS THE PEOPLE'S BEHAVIOUR, THEIR BELIEFS, AND THEIR CHARACTER, ARE YOU SELECTIVELY BLIND TO INFORMATION THAT CONTRADICTS YOUR Knuckle dragging ape-kindom's rules?*  HOW THE FUCK IS IT AD HOMINEM IF I AM TALKING ABOUT THE VERY THING THAT IS THE FUCKING TOPIC OF THE OP? Yes, you're THAT Dumb. Blindside master. "Now you first paragraph after the "your and idiot" point, is complete rubbish and is now way an argument. I'll assume that your just a very emotional young man who likes bananas (yes I watched the video and you can't even peel a fucking banana properly)"  LOOOOLLLLLLLL, no. He, and you, are very much like many other people I've had respond to me in butthurt fury before. What the TYPICAL Monkey does, is go to the Channel Page of the person they could find no way to beat in an argument. Then Getting more butthurt at realising how intellectually hollow your 'beliefs and reasons' are. So, as a last desperate attempt at feeling like such a person has won, they will come back (like him), and then look at random things to attack  ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL. SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT YOU AND YOUR AD HOMINEM BULLSHIT. DID YOU JUST UNDERSTAND WHAT I WROTE PRIOR TO THIS SENTENCE? heheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. The IRONY. But I guess idiots need other idiots to defend them, because they're all they have. "I" don't hunt and never have as I have no need, however even if you were referring to the individual in the video as opposed to myself, then he DOES need to hunt to survive." No he *DOESN'T 'NEED' IT, LOL. IS HE UNEDUCATED? IS HE A FUCKING HANDICAP? NO. Shut up. You narrow minded prick. EVERYTHING YOU TRY TO ANALYZE, Is CORRUPTED By your DESPERATION TO PERCEIVE ACTIONS IN YOUR PRE-SUPPOSED SENSE, ultimately just leaving a deluded ape behind. With fancy textile, and electronics, but dumb, lost, ignorant, nonetheless. ""You dumb bitch, I come from a village in India where electricity and internet are a Very new thing, you ignorant entitled little internet whimp. If this doesn't show you how far away from sensible you are, nothing will" In this statement you imply that my opinion is invalid as you are from India and I am an "entitled internet whimp". This is a prime example of Abusive Ad Hominem." OH MY FUCKING GOD, YOU LITTLE BITCHES WITH YOUR "OH STOP HURTING MY FEELINGS, MY ARBITRARY FEELINGS WITH YOUR AD HOMINEM WORDSSS OHHHHH THEY HURRTTYYY!!!  Fuck. Stop. With. The. Ad. Hominem. Bull.Shit. *Sorry I forgot chicken nuggets fell out of the sky and the world was made of rainbow sparkles. You may live in a completely safe little modern bubble, not everyone else does.* REMEMBER THIS? YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITICAL Pube, LOLOL!!!!! YES, AN AD HOMINEM, HOLY SHIT. STOP HURTING ME BY SAYING I LIVE IN A SAFE LITTLE MODERN BUBBLE, IT'S ABUSIVE!!!!!!!!!!* THAT WAS THE REASON I SAID THAT, OR DO YOU JUST FORGET SHIT SO FAST ALL THE TIME? You know what, just don't reply, I'd much prefer that, lol. just stop entirely.

  901. Brennan Listle There's nothing to be proud of "being a hunter", lol. What the fuck are you doing "Hunting" when there's food in the fucking supermarket. Oh wait, I'm talking to a fucking idiot, who doesn't even believe that other animals suffer, as well. Because this idiot doesn't know how something suffers, so he just pretends like the world just works in a certain way where he and his herd are made special by themselves so they can do whatever they want to anyone else without feeling any moral responsibility.  You know, like what the jihadists do when killing other people, "they're just infidels". THEIR BELIEF IS JUST AS GOOD AS YOURS, BECAUSE THEY BOTH LACK ANY FACTUAL BACKING, SIMPLE, lol.  "I'm a huntaa shmghumg"!! The Terrorists can say the same thing. They hunt infidels like you, they are just as justified as you are.  "I kill myself so the whole you pay to have someone impregnate doesn't exactly work but I did get a good chuckle out ta that" *Hahaha, yeah sure thing. I'm just going to totally believe that you've NEVER EVER HAD A FUCKING HAMBURGER, OR ANY OTHER MEAT FROM OUTSIDE your "Hunted"/murdered animals, sure, Also I bet every animal product in your house is totally hunted for by you, sure, totally believing that, Or not. Also, your "hunting" has no moral justification, which you already know, that's why you pretend the whole moral argument Just magically doesn't exist when killing someone, holy fuck, how deep do you have to go up your own ass until the screams stop meaning anything, lol? Well, you're there already. Gratzzzzzzzz hunter brahhhh. Delusional Roleplaying ape, kek. But you won't get what I'm saying, because you're in very shit that I am insulting(based on evidence ofc, don't want another bitch crying about ad hominems as a desperate last resort).

  903. Brennan Listle There are Tens of thousands if not millions of "HUMANS" who live in the jungle, do things like the animals, with the animals, and have NO BIAS TOWARDS THEMSELVES OR THE ANIMALS, unlike the one you've inherited from your herd, because it grants you their favor and "like us"ness. You know, the basics of surviving in a herd. You fail to see it. First you call yourself(humans) BETTER, and then, do defend why you are better than the "animals", YOU USE THEIR ACTIONS THEIR ENVIRONMENT AND THEIR LACK OF EDUCATION AND A SETTLED SOCIETY, TO JUSTIFY YOUR ACTIONS IN ONE, HOLY SHIT!!!!!   All this time, you're failing to understand the basic function of sentience, and in turn, the brain, which is the source of sentience, You take the brain out, you take yourself out. Simple, but hey, that never stopped any megalomaniac lunatic from going on a killing spree, all the while the monsters on their tables get together and feel "all the real family love", when you don't even understand how the brain functions, you're nowhere near understanding each other, you just make the vaguest assumptions and then dumb each other down to those assumptions, like a good sheep. This is what I see as karma, after some time of having concluded that karma doesn't exist. What you pay with, for your actions, is a life of those actions, a life that cannot be good, for if killing animals is GOOD, then what is it's POLAR OPPOSITE, NOT KILLING THEM? EVIL? LOL!!! So, You'll live a life where you lie to yourself everyday, to your family, they lie back to you, you all lie to each other, just so you can live in your fantasy of being some super specialy feeling being of inherent trait which makes you the only creature capable of suffering.  How much more conceited can one get? All because you didn't want to change a lie you've been living for so long, so you'll throw away the chance to stop and change, and keep on playing until you stop working. Never having to openly admit guilt, lol. What a real "man". huhuhu/

Brennan Listle "you're a hypocrite putting itself at a godlike level deciding wats OK to kill what suffers in your opinion and yet you make me sound as if I think I'm special lol"  *THAT WOULD ACTUALLY BE YOU, LOL*, assuming that you and your kids are somehow More than the animals you kill and eat, add narrow minded as fuck to your resume, too. Sheeh, Let me take a break now, you've done enough stupid to last me days. And look, You like every typical herdboy, Just asked my the stupid plant question, then got put down, and then returned to save face and pretending like that never even happened, lol. It's here for anyone to see, too late, bitch. But I guess your whole world exists in the headspace anyway. "l I'll be the first to say I believe humans are a step above animals just as whales are to krill... is that bad in your opinion I guess but it doesn't make you right. As long as you kill the animal as quickly as possible I'm OK with it... :-) now time for this steak sub I brought from home" Just adding to the hypocrisy. Again, you're just a coward hiding in your little herd with rules made to protect your own little coward ass. You wouldn't survive a day in the real wild, that's why you hide and shoot a gun from behind a bush, and pretend like you're some ancient super hunter or something, while being sub par in mind and body, nastayyyy..  Look at this person's words, people; "BELIEVE", HE BELIEVESSS ITT, THEREFORE IT'S TRUE FOR HIM. , LOL! This is the depths to what the "intelligent human brain" can sink into, and not even out of a disease or physical injury, BUT OUT OF CONSCIOUS CHOICE TO BELIEVE TOTAL BULLSHIT JUST TO FEEL RELEVANT AND NOT JUST LIKE ANOTHER ANIMAL, BECAUSE THAT WOULD MAKE PRETENDING LIKE THEY DON'T SUFFER, MUCH MUCH HARDER!!! Ok I'm done for reals now. I've put the little remaining smacks in this one. Nibble nibble.

  906. Hans Tun The reason why that few people wear fur, is because Wearing fur, has BECOME A STIGMA, NOT BECAUSE IT'S WRONG.  This specie follows the closest trends it finds, the ones which help it gratify itself. NOT BECAUSE They UNDERSTAND GOOD AND EVIL. I'll just tell you know that your case is MORALLY DEFENSELESS. THERE IS NOTHING THAT ANYONE CAN SAY, BECAUSE IN THE END, YOUR ACTIONS DO NOT CHANGE. "Killing for vanity is wrong...simple as that." Why? That must mean killing for gluttony, when there's 10,000 different options to choose from, is wrong too? Oh, I GUESS NOT, lol. Just because what you do is LESS WORSE than What Mink factories do, DOES NOT MEAN ITS SUDDENLY RIGHT. Just because I Abuse my children in LESS EVIL Ways than my neighbor, Doesn't make me a good person, let alone a better person. because ABUSE is in BOTH Cases. Just like with you and them, The MURDERER is Still YOU. Flipping Flopping words will do NOTHING. Well it sure as heck seems to make you feel better.. The Animal was innocent, You weren't a part of its natural environment (Then I don't know how the fuck you assumed that, maybe sitting behind the bushes in the jungles makes you feel like that, maybe that's what you're so into), That's like saying "I don't Use my Slaves for tough farm work and starve them, because that's horrible. I just use them to pull my cart and to construct buildings, and do house chores for me at 0.00 wages.. and starve and whip them if they don't work. See? Both Still SLAVERS in the end, even though one is "better" than the other. "I don't Rape my Baby boy, I just fondle his privates, I'm NOT LIKE THE RAPISTS!! I just make real love to the baby, Says the paedophile. And the Audience throws roses at his feet, for how much better than the other paedophile he is"... :|, yeah, the whole "reasoning" is mental. Hmm, we want to be better people, but I just enjoy meat too much. I wonder what to do. Oh, That's right, I can just say that the people skinning the animals are worse than me, the one who hunts them because it loves the thrill so much. I mean going to the supermarket is easier, but I guess I'll just be a GOOD GUY, AND GO KILL SOME RANDOM ANIMAL and then tell everyone how I do it strictly for teh foods and goods. Yo, guys!! Check this out, I found a Totally LEGIT WAY TO BE GOOD, AND STILL MURDER!!!!! -> First, just acknowledge that you Kill the animal, cut their organs up, pull their leather(on which fur already exists), then eat them. THEN, You Tell the people that THE ACTUAL BAD GUYS, Are the ones who Raise the animals, then Kill them, then Pull their Leather out (On which the Mink/Fur exists), then use the remaining body for whatever else they feel like. WOW, YEAH, I TOTALLY SEE A DIFFERENCE!!! You must feel so "Oh yeah I'm totally not murdering something just now, because I think those other guys are worse" vibe all the time behind the crosshair, huh? Oh, jee. Come on, man. Is that how low the standards of "being good" have been dragged to? So low, that even the lowest kind of life, just walk up and is deemed the best. If such is the case, why even bother? That's right, even a corrupted mind, one so far gone, longs to be perceived as good and righteous, even by oneself, lying to get one's way WON'T BE THE FIRST TIME! :D Don't need to reply to me. If you realise you're wrong, then you know what to do. If not, then please, do continue as you have (even if it comes at the price of living a life of lying to yourself every single day).

  924. XmadbeastX And what part of "being with nature" has anything to do with killing an animal?  It's self affirming delusion, something you people create out of thin air, like more of this civilisation, which is evil in it's roots, but you call it sacred/special, because otherwise, you would be the guilty one.  "over populated"  Have you seen the Human? How Many that species has made, go hunt them. "ethical",  Is it Ok if i kill somebody,  then EAT them, Will i be Freed of my Sins? Lol, How come you are so special then? Oh that's right, because everyone else around you told you and they are so.  I guess they're right, or in allegory, just a whole pile of idiots who change the Very Standard of stupidity so they become smart people. dude, you are making be believe that you have somewhat flawed logic, here's why : First you say "Deer are overpopulated" not in comparison, no, but Ok. Then you say "we kill them so they don't die to disease or Brutal winters."  Are you shitting me?  Let's Kill EVERY ANIMAL RIGHT NOW, so they Don't die NATURAL DEATHS, Yeah, We're Doing GOOD by killing an animal RIGHT NOW, so that he/she doesn't even get the chance to try.  Nice nice nice nice. Yeah, the first time you shot a deer, you cried because you couldn't kill him in one shot, because the life didn't leave him instantly, it seeped out, slowly, but you still went on to end his existence, and then had some nice steak and boom, happy ending in your house with your mom with your dad, meanwhile the parent/child of the Deer would be out there Searching and searching. You're not a douchebag because you shot a deer, but i will call you one, not because you took a life (People do that everyday when they have their food), but because you killed one with your very hands, and you sere STILL incapable of seeing how similar you were, you rejected his being, you called it meat, you  rejected the pain he felt because of you. If you talk to a Rapist, or a Serial Killer, or your chip off the old block Woman Beater, They  CAN EACH, give you a Reason to Why they find Their Respective Actions MEANINGFUL, how they "connect" to their Recipient, they ALL have a Justification for doing it.  Now, Multiply the number of  Aforementioned People to EQUAL The number of current Hunters, etc. What Difference do you see? A different animal is suffering, suffering nonetheless.

  932. Arthur Rightus  Well, here's the thing: I accept intelligent arguments against my "beliefs" and respond to them politely, mostly.  BUT, when I see people who are even Older than me, and have a  MUCH better LIFE, have access to more INFORMATION with ease, yet they come here with their random points, with so much confidence in their validity. I will State some, for example: 1- "We help animals by eating them or they would become extinct." 2- "Eating Plants actually wastes more land     and resources." 3- "Humans are predators and this is                   survival."    4- "They don't think like us." 5- "You NEED to eat meat or you will be              unhealthy and malnourished." 6- "We help save deforestation." 7 "We help take care of the animal and their      families in the abattoir." 8- "You murder Vegetables, you're no                 better(lol)."  Etc,etc,etc. You expect me to have a sensible discussion with them? The same people who, if gave the smallest shits about ANY animal, then they WOULD STOP Killing SEVERAL BILLION sentient beings EVERY YEAR, but cry for for animal getting beaten with a stick, and then PRETEND that they've done nothing bad? Then Still go on filling and spreading this garbage around the world. Talk about herd mentality. Everyone with the same fucked up thoughts which support their habits, get together in unison, and suddenly, Taking billions of lives, VOLUNTARILY, becomes a Cool thing to do and everyone's doing it and it's the shit, lol. remembers Nazi Germany and the Ussr(but they actualy killed less "non-people")  Yeah, I can't have a decent conversation with those kind of people and there's so many of them, that the new ones just look at the numbers and a button clicks, and its all Perfect... well at least for you. The Billions still die, but hey, it's nice and warm on the table, who gives a shit what they were before being food, amirite guiissse?! You apparently think that a DEER's life is INTRINSICALLY below a Human's, do you know how fucking stupid that sounds to an intelligence that is not human?  You are telling me that an animal who NEVER committed a crime, never hurt anybody, NEVER fucking EVER, is LOWER than men who beat women, rapists, KKK, terrorists, Capitalists, Murderers, Pedophiles, and the other 141251564 things that follow, simply because they look/sound/etc/etc, like you, or because someone told you so? If you read till here, Here's the funny thing: If all these people Actually wanted to or actually cared, they would have made the tiniest effort to at least educate themselves about the lives they are taking(you too probably), and wouldn't be offended by what I said, because it's more honest than the self-justifying/herofying bullshit most people've been feeding themselves here. We're done here.

  933. Arthur Rightus  No, they're not helpful in preventing "overpopulation" (doesn't realise his own species is overpopulating but that's not a problem lol, here cometh the double standards,or denial).  First, the same hunters(or the same kind), goes and kills all the NATURAL PREDATORS, then says " dawmn, these deers are growing out of control, JESUS BLESS ME, I'm going in to stop the Mass populated Deers of satan!!" Goddammit stop with this shit lol.  If this is NOT self-pwn, then what is, lol? Do you REALLY want your one flash of existence in this universe to be lost by the ideas of the ones who came before, and then you "inherit" them so proudly, thinking that it actually means something. OF COURSE I WILL WRITE A NOVEL, LOL. That's how much effort it takes to describe the mass ignorance going on here, along with correcting it for people who might be willing to change their minds, so shoot me(or the deer, because he's automatically inferior to me by the law of allah or god or something). Meat eating helps ZERO in "feeding the overpopulating", as i said, If you wanted to do research, 3 minutes would have been more than enough to tell you that it takes Multiples of times more land to grow the crops t ofeed the same animals who when killed produce maybe 10% of the total food (but oooh praise the almighty meat). Did nobody tell you that only around 45% of a pig is edible and  the beef falls around the same lines too. I'd rather be stubborn, than be completely wrong about what I "know" yet go on believing because it supports the actions which would be condemned otherwise." Here's another thing: I'd rather be hostile and stubborn on a comment section of youtube than be out there partaking in the celebrated slaughter of billions of sentient beings, who are betrayed by the very people who raised them, lol, and then Feeling good about it and actually warping my thoughts so far, that it feels like it all makes sense. Try imagining a mountain of all the living things that died for people like you(even that of the last year is enough), the final thoughts of every single one of them, a mountain of corpses and entrails which you and many others took part in, and now you celebrate it, because you are so deep into it that you don't even feel it's worth turning back, so you WILL probably still continue, because your nevrous system has comfy'd into the whole idea.  Or maybe becayse you just don't like me, so your mind will try to avoid anything that i say, doesn't matter how factually correct it might be, because that would spoil the haven of ideas that your mind has built. And it is, sadly so very easy, to go on pretending than face reality. ooh, whammy.  Peace out  blazeit 420

  937. ***** If you see some of the posts from maybe a few weeks ago, i am relatively calm in my approach. Though, none of what i wrote is to help me. I am not here to give rights to myself, or defend myself. Heck, our "beliefs" and "Ideas" are almost a non-factor, yet someone could actually think that it is better to continue the killing than it is to stop, at least if your life doesn't depend on it. But I'm not gonna just let someone tell me and impressionable people all around, that it is Better to kill and eat them than it is to completely leave them alone. Everytime i make a statement, people just seem to never judge themselves, they just think that everything that they thought up till now, has worked till today, why not forever? Maybe it is the good thing to do after all. Of course you didn't say the quoted words, but you did say that "Humans" as Whole, have reached a higher state of consciousness, which other animals have not. That is incorrect. Here's why: There's animals who have thousands of times better senses than we do, which means they can perceive the world better than us in certain aspects, like birds can sense the electro magnetic waves of this planet, which means they ARE more conscious of those things. a being with higher consciousness does not go around robbing people of their rights, or ANYTHING negative deliberately done by humanity. There are people who are so addicted to some chemicals, that they want nothing else, there's people who lie on the road all day. I doubt they've reached a higher level of consciousness, and that's just ones from the bottom of the pile. That is why I said your morality is limited to certain chosen organisms who you/environment around you picks as a no-no to eat and the ones you eat, suddenly become excluded and don't matter as if you have all the answers and the perfect conclusion's that they are GO to eat. I just don't understand how a mind can function in this way and accept it as correct.  Your Empathy has holes in it. Holes which let the animals you consume be nothing more than food, and of course you Know that what you think is right or you wouldn't be thinking like that.  That's the weirdest thing, to think that it's better to eat meat than it is to not, or why would you deliberately choose the latter. Yep, we be tricky self eluding master creatures.  I am here, speaking for the whole planet, and then i have to respond to the same garbage they throw at me everytime, the same unfounded shiznit. When i mention people like Adolf and Stalin, is to Show you, how the people who they massacred, were no MORE than ANIMALS to them. Entire Countries consisting of "Higher consciousness" humans, Rallied towards  the genocide of a certain type of people, because it benefited them.  IF you do not want to notice the striking similarity in the mental process of warping one's perception, then you don't have to, it doesn't make a difference in my mind. Not acknowledging a Disease doesn't make it go away, and calling it a good thing, doesn't change it either. That is what that idea is. We can ramble ramble ramble for Days on end, trying to pretend like we are the holders of the ultimate answer, rejecting the other person's ideas, but in the end, Billions of animals will still die, as they are dying while I type this and nothing has changed, worse yet, People truly believe that it's better to consume sentient beings, than it is to not, lel.

  944. Well, my family was against any products which kill animals. Well they all had religious reasons, but it still leads them to NOT participate in the genocide(it is by Definition, a perpetuated genocide). My reasons were religious in the early years, but I stayed like that for my morals. . All my life, I lived in a village, so The cow from whom I got the milk, lived in the next door, never suffered(let alone getting strung upside down and throat cut). I did once, with my nephew, accidentally take a bit of meat "dumplings", because you don't know what's inside. Well we  spat it out in the first bite, and my nephew threw up in front of me, lol. That's the closest I got to it. Yes, you don't find it fun, but the animals who die for it don't really care what you feel(because they're busy getting butchered). "I keeping these 'coloured' slaves and beating women, but I do not enjoy it " (you might not be able to see the similarity, but I can, because I am not biased towards animals who simply look like  me).   Ask yourself; "Did you REALLY need to kill the ones you did, or you could have done with some veggies and bread?" Was it Literally, the ONLY choice you had?"  Heck, man, we were poor, but never so much that we had to kill someone to eat. I feel morality coming from you, but I ask you to revalue what you learnt all these years, I am a pessimist at heart, but I still don't throw morality out, instead try to build it outside the safe circle of the human perception and comfort.  Peace :D. and if you read till here, sorry for my harsh language, but I am simply not trying to get on the good side of people. Is that what I must do to make people realise the obvious? I just skip the PR :D

  965. greg humiston  I actually have. Not as a hobby, but as a "hey, lemme try the board for a sec". You see, IF the FIRST people who 'invented the skateboard' never let it become a reality, You and everyone who's so attached to it, like they would die if it left them, wouldn't even know that it could have existed and will NEVER miss it, because you don't miss something you never knew about. And would be doing something completely different and Saying the SAME THINGS about that.  Heck, you could just be born in Afghanistan or Mongolia, and never even know what a skateboard even looks like.   I can just, simply start making circles on the wall, and saying "this gives my life meaning and I would be nothing without drawing these circles on the wall, and nobody can say anything because they don't know what it feels like." And you know what? If I think hard enough and trick myself (as everyone does them, in their daily lives, to do the things they hate, just to get the things they don't need), IT WILL Become like that. Same goes for everything else that humans come up with. It's all a temporary fad, created arbitrarily, which people like to stick to and blow it out of proportions, and then use the people below to cash in on, and then leave. boom. It should be played as a sport, enjoyed as a sport, loved as a sport, kept as a sport. But the folks who get the $$$$ out of it, DO want you to feel like it's your life and it means more than just entertainment, or why would you pay them? Everyone wants an 'easy meaning and purposefulness to life', but there's no point sticking a fad to it, and saying "done, meaning found." Hope I'm not being harsh or anything, I just wanted to give you a perspective of what skateboarding is and How Tiny fraction of space it takes up on the "Human Timeline". Not always fun to think like this, but helps get a bigger perspective of things, more than what concerns just us in our towns and homes, in contrast to time and space. <3

  983. ***** *btw, hope you don't think im like a hippie or something who is all emotional and shit, because that would be hilarious*  Let's begin:::  Do you know how Completely Stupid you guys sound when you say things like:  "We kill animals because we have to "SUSTAIN" ourselves #hardcorenature5ever ."  or another favourite:   "you are killing generations of Tomatoes and carrots you are the same as us." LOLOLOLO Ok, now time to explain. 1: You are NOT sustaining yourself by killing other animals. It's actually a complete waste of healthy land and Drinking water.  Do you know how much Land and water it takes to make 1 pound of beef? It takes 200 fucking squared meters of land and around 11000 LITERS OF WATER to give you  ONE POUND of beef. The figures float around this, depending on the varying animals.   OH WAIT, also, hardly  40% of a cow is edible , around 50% for chicken ON TOP OF THE HUGE RESOURCE WASTE.  So yeah, your whole "we help earth by eating meat" shit is also SHIT. Along with " the world would be overrun by trees", etc. #way3gosustaining    *PATHETIC* So yeah, point 1 is out of the fucking window. Now, for  #2 :  Let me begin with how completely idiotic this excuse of you guys sounds to a logical person. Have you done even a page of study on what makes up animal bodies and what makes up plant bodies??? I doubt it. You know what your "human" exists in? Your "Being", your "Soul"(laughs), "you". Do you know where these things exist? DAS RIGHT KIDS, IN the Fucking NERVOUS SYSTEM, WHICH THE FUCKING PLANTS DO NOT HAVE, THEY DO NOT HAVE A SON, NEITHER DO THEY HAVE A DAUGHTER, THEY DO NOT FEED THEIR YOUNG THEIR MILK, THEY DO NOT CARE FOR OTHERS AROUND THEM, THEY DO NOT THINK, THEY DO NOT HAVE A CONSCIOUSNESS, THEY DO NOT FEEL THE BLADE NEITHER DO THEY HAVE EMOTIONS. holy shit, lol. Seriously, you ignorant self blowing cave-men! Why do you waste my time like this?  Do you enjoy living this lie? The one you use your ancestors as an excuse to perpetuate, along with anyone who agrees. Maybe on your deathbed you may realise it, maybe you already do but can't accept it,maybe your perception is irreparably warped/ I've taken my time to think about it well before even watching this video. lol, i don't think so.

  985. ***** Now, back to the debate. 1: So, just because you consume the product, doesn't make it "efficient", quite the contrary, its a complete Waste, the same land you could use to grow forests, or grow food for starving humans, you Deliberately Breed animals to billions of them, and then stuff them with all the food, just so you can eat them later. I  find this to be a pathetic excuse. You are not sustaining, Do you know what sustainable is? this is not sustainable, it is WASTEFUL. you spend 100 units of resource on raising, breeding, sheltering, transporting, killing, etc,etc and  get 5 units in the end and go like "YEAH FUCKING EFFICIENT SUSTAINING, WOOOOO".  I thought human consciousness was moving forward.. 2:When i mentioned the "soul", i mentioned it among many other examples, i didn't know your beliefs, it could be anything. the thing people call soul, does not exist. It's just another tool, among many, to make us feel like we're entitled to more, that we are more, without even making the effort. But it shouldn't give you an excuse to completely ignore the whole statement, haha. You seem to be so desensitised towards animal consciousness, you just do not see it. Because your mind has bent to it's environment, where you can not build your own moral values, because you rest on this pre-built idea which is too precious to you, because it renders you innocent. No, i am not religious, nor am i spiritual, not superstitious either. So i think that covered #2. The cave-men word was like an analogy, to the building of one idea, and enforcing it through the beliefs of others around you and shunning/dismissing any opposing idea, no matter how factual, and how disproving,  the cave becomes the bubble, which keeps you from ever changing your thoughts, because you find comfort in it, and the outside, the change of thought strikes uncertainty and fear. Ignorance is to knowledge what rust is to iron.  Ooohhhh Damnnn!! I just came up with that! Oohhh .

  989. ***** I will still have you know that I have never consumed, voluntarily, any meat, in my whole life, and i am perfectly fine, not short skinny, malnourished, etc, nothing, so  meat being a non "reciprocal" product, not to forget everyone that dies in the process.  Just how not eating meat doesn't kill me, eating meat doesn't make me hulk, actually, many diseases/ pathogens in it.  In simple words: I see myself as someone who can think more than a wild animal, and someone who has choices and understanding of actions and morality. I do not look at the truth of the civilisation around us, because that keeps changing, so it has not much to do with morality, but with choice. I, like most everybody else, have a CHOICE of letting other animals live, not involving someone's death in every other meal (and looking at it with a warped pov), i WILL take it over killing animals and finding an excuse to call it ok, Anyday. If to you, there exist various levels of morals, if not true good and evil, would you NOT call Killing and eating innocent animals who have been stripped of everything they were to be born into a LESS MORAL act than going about eating carrots and potatoes? Neither of them may be "evil", nor may they be "good", but  One WILL BE WORSE  than the other. And i seriously doubt that it's the one who doesn't want to kill.  I'm not even being biased to my beliefs, it's just literally more moral than killing and eating animals, Especially when there is absolutely no need of it.  If a man wants his conscience to strike him, even stepping on an ant can break him, and if he doesn't, then killing 6 million(ish) Jews may also not be enough.  It's our choice, at least regarding what goes on in our thoughts, or at least the ones that shape us.

  990. ***** Hehe It's quite funny, but I Live in India, and from what i remember, around the time i was born, i think we didn't even have a house to live in, Let alone being in a developed country, hehe :B. I am half scottish though, but i've never seen Scotland, so you can say that i have spent, literally, my whole life, living in a 2nd world(ish) country, and turned out pretty healthy compared to a lot of people, even if they ate meat and i wouldn't credit it all to genes.  You could say that i come from a "tough(ish) life", because the difficulty of your life is relative to the one you compare it to, but i got education, so. :D You will miss no core nutrient if you don't eat meat. Hemp seeds even have Omega-3 Fatty acid, along with others of the line, which according to many people "only fishes have" and I live in INDIA lele, you must have it so much easier there, getting any product you want, relatively, take my word on it, you don't need it if you stop telling yourself that you do. Believe me, a KG of meat(unhygenic, killed and cut on the side of the road, in a make-shift meat shop here, often costs more than 10 KGs of some vegetable, depending on the prices, but never less. And you can't eat meat by itself either, well you can, but.. well maybe someone likes it. Yes, the morality tug. But remember, there will be an intrinsic morality to everything, one that humans only try to interpret. But keep this in mind, two people's morals are not Equal, no matter how much equality someone wants, there will be those which are closer to the "Real moral" than others, and that is just how it is.    I wouldn't put Jihadists and rapists(and a thousand other things) on the same moral level as me,  would you at your own? This proves that morals are not equal, well they can all mean the same to you, but then again, that only covers you. Oh, yes. Of course i am killing "something" when i have food. But it is not the same thing that feels pain and emotions, you know, all that "humane" jazz. It is the least preferred way of eating, since it is least cruel, or Less cruel, which it is for sure.  No nervous system, no sense of being, yes "existence" but no conscience, no consciousness,etc etc. If you will put a scrutiny stick on me for "killing vegetables", aren't the pigs and cows you have, also Fed "killed vegetables", too?, and in gargantuan amounts, compared to myself. If you want to pull the "Line" so thin, then envelop other humans into it, too. How do humans stay free from your judgement, is it because so many of them share the same idea as you? Is it the subconscious bending of your thoughts towards preferring another "species", or is it just the obeying of a pre-installed programming? "When you say, "One life to sustain another", you do know that it is more like "One life every other meal or two to sustain my tummy."    In this human world, people who can buy things, don't eat to "survive" or "sustain", they eat when it's Breakfast lunch dinner, etc. You can NOT apply that term here. Tips on how to not make beliefs biased:  Take two options, think about which one has a worse outcome, not just for yourself, use the point of view of the ones who are subjected to actions in it, because of YOUR DEMAND, then choose the one which is less murderous, these are harsh words, but that is what it is, Murder. Definition: Unlawful killing.  Will you say that the animal Deserved to die? Would you say that he commited a crime, so he should die?  How come to kill a man, you have to go through a billion trials, even if he is a knuckle dragging pedophile serial killer. to have him executed, but damn, when it comes to "animals" They seem worse than that guy to you, huh. This human propensity to create this self supporting idea that humans have "reached" some stage where their life is above, and everything that you can take, you TAKE, because that's what Raiders, pillagers, etc did, they just didn't discriminate. Have you thought what that pig might haver thought, when they pulled him into that room, the same men who raised him, then hung him upside down and slit his throat. I really don't think you've tried to empathise with the animals you lead to their deaths, or maybe try harder, or better.

  992. Giddo11  Lol, these "men" are not "fighters". They use a LESS intelligent being, then manipulating them until they are breathless, using their weakness, toying around with their Propensity to respond to taunting actions, then using metal weapons to stab it to death..  OH BUT WAIT, WE GETZ TO EAT THE ANIMAL TOO, I GUESS EVERYTHING IS OK NOW, FUCK WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM, HE LOOKS SO FKIN DELISHOES NOM NOM NOM. Dipshit, if the bull "bests" you, you don't "Insta-die" A dozen people jump on the bull to help their whiny bitch ass to safety, But ignorant pricks with narrow vision of reality, only see that part, you don't see the bull getting any help, but who gives a shit? Of course you are Risking your life, but It's an IDIOT, Putting himself where he DOESNT need to be, and then you Clap for him, because he did that? Lol.  Have you counted how many Bulls die PER Matador? You should have. Yeah you saw "sensible" points, Points to only SUPPORT your "idea", and ignoring everything that completely destroys your delusion. I don't have a vice for Anything, at least not seeing innocent creatures being slaughtered, at the same time enjoying the shit out of it and then beating off to it. Here's the thing, I DO see a Different ANGLE, But it's not from another culture or something, it from outside anything to do with a human's Attachments. See this entire race, with everything it's busy doing, it's total bullshit. I will never fall so low as to find "meaning" in the killing of an animal in front of thousands of people, WHO ALL ENJOY IT(reason why they are there).  AN animal dying for AMUSEMENT, and you people tell me to "Look from a different angle". If you read till here, I'll tell you what a culture is to someone who sees it from the outside: A Culture is an activity or a body of activities that a person/persons, from the past came up with, justified, and started doing. Then came the new people, they all saw the things those people were doing and simply started doing the same things. (Remember, there is NO ACTUAL REASON to having the activity; in the sense that it DOESN'T PROVIDE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT THE PARTICIPANT WANTS IT TO PROVIDE) Now, you talk about whether I would look at things differently, had i been born somewhere else. Of course, but not necessarily as something GOOD. I would be a DIFFERENT PERSON. My current experience would NOT exist.

  993. Giddo11  Here's something of a riddle, for you to riddle over : So, you say It is right because it is CULTURE, Ok. Then Every Village /Group/Country/Gang/Terrorist Groups/ Extremist Islamic/ Cannibal Tribe/ Neo-Nazi Group/ Facists/etc/etc, they all have their own CULTURES, which they all have equal respect for(their own). By Becoming a part of one culture, you automatically, connect yourself to it and it's people and their beliefs, you see meaning in it. But you will never get to see Tens of THOUSANDS of cultures outside your own, which you know nothing about, so you don't have the authority to say they're good too, THEY ALL MEAN SOMETHING to someone, somewhere. ( but not to you, and that applies to every individual like you). Now, EVERY CULTURE holds DEEP MEANING, but ONLY to the people who're a part of it, doesn't matter what it practices, because you, cannot judge them, because you are in the same situation. So basically, a bunch of people in the past come up with random shit to do, stick meanings,god,values to it, then people after them like monkeys, stick to it, too, and find everything about it to be RIGHT (obviously, why else would you follow it, perhaps confirmation bias?) Then if your Culture is "good", then so is EVERY OTHER, according to its participants, even the nazis and the cannibals and the matadors, etc. If you call your culture as good, and you call the matador's culture as good, then even the Taliban's Culture IS GOOD, and so are the Orthodox Christian Church, and so are, again, the cannibals of the amazon, and EVERY SINGLE Group of activities that ANY PERSONS do, ANYWHERE. Because YOU can NOT judge them. DO you see the IDIOCY of this blind bandwagon mentality? I do, therefore i  *REJECT Every culture*, even the one i was born into, to build my own existence, not to take some pointless idea of a purposeful existence that some unknown idiot came up with 500 years ago, when i know our existence is greater than being a bunch of apes walking into an arena where they sit on their ignorant asses and watch a bull get butchered and tell their kids,  "Look, little Pedro, This is a Realllll Man, a True Matador!! You wanna be like him when you grow up, remember!"   "ok Papa!" conformation successful

  996. Giddo11  Glad you see the point I'm trying to make. But Will have to ask you a question to further clear this murkiness. > Is there ANY way of Killing an INNOCENT being? Can you ever call the act of Killing an animal who's been FORCED into his/her current condition, and then has to fight someone they DO NOT WANT, Just to face INEVITABLE DEATH, Humane ?  Is that how blind humanity is willing to become? In a world where everyone is EQUAL, the need to "Prove" yourself, that too, by Killing a LESSER animal, who doesn't even understand what is going on, will not exist. How many chances does a bull get to train to fight the matador and understand his weakness, compared to the LIFETIME of training the murderers receive? Anything has value if you really force yourself hard enough to find it in there.  You know what Communities and Culture does? Excludes EVERY other community and culture, or bases them on a different level. People will tell you "Human race is one." When it clearly is not, people are given Borders, titles, "duties", obligations to fight for, when NONE of this would have existed, if the people just all Stopped for a moment and didn't lie to themselves. People go to war, when they don't see that they're fighting for NONEXISTANT borders, just arbitrary bullshit that's fed to them and they eat it, and the whole world rallies around the same idea, perpetuating the cycle. If everyone gave up their cultures, their race, their country, their communities, there would be ONLY ONE left, true humanity. Maybe we're at a stage in evolution, where propensity to believe is too high for everyone to be able to doubt everything they know. Maybe time will fix it, if we won't. It's just the helplessness which is annoying. The reach is so restricted, if you see my point :\..

  998. It is I  No I don't see a difference. Because in both cases, the animal gets no choice, and dies brutally anyway, but that doesn't pop up in your heads. You logic is made up of arbitrary conjectures to support your ideas, if you really wanted to use logic and rationality, then you would recognize, that it IS worse to Listen, man. I'm tired of ignorant people saying "to sustain human lives", are you guys dense? "sustenance", lol, Don't make me laugh. Livestock animal only gives a fraction of "food" that it consumes, and only around 45% of the 'pig' is edible, so you ARE wasting land and other resources, because you enjoy it so much, but you feel you stand on a higher moral ground than these 'matadors', but you are on the same level, here's the difference: You both just have a different excuse to kill the animals,, In both cases, it is UNNECESSARY and the animal still dies, you do it nonetheless, and you probably killed more animals in your lifetime, than a matador has in the ring. Deal with it.  Or don't, and just try even harder to maintain the delusion in your mind until you die, so you will never have to change. And yes, this is coming from a moral high ground. Like you can call yourself better than a murderer or a child molester or a slave-owner, I can call myself better than you, because I make a conscious choice to not  be a part of billions of animals getting killed every year, yeah. One more thing; If you ACTUALLY wanted to truly understand what's going on, a GOOGLE SEARCH would have sufficed, stay ignorant stay happy. Or what, do you want me to sugar coat it? Damn, how many times do I have to repeat myself.

  1003. mysalival100 It's long, but I guess you have time, like everyone on youtube, that's why we're here.)  Here's something for you to think about (some alternate perspectives, try to see if you can sit into them)  : You are perfectly comfortable with someone dying, as long as it happens "quickly", even though you have no personal experience, but you just believe that it does, because that makes you feel like you're not doing something 'wrong', confirmation Bias. The Actual action, the Unnecessary murder of the organism, that NEVER goes through your mind, you don't even talk about it. I see something fucked up about it.   No Murder is "ethical" or "humane",  Read the definition of murder. Are you Ok with me killing mentally handicapped animals.. err... I mean uh.. 'humans', as long as I kill them 'quickly'? Maybe I should just backstab or headshot them them while they sleep lol, they will never see it coming, lol, and then we can "pay our respects" to them, boom, all set. We can even join for some bbq later.  It's like telling a cannibal, that it's not important to kill humans and eat them, but even they will tell you, "they need it". lol.  How are they wrong? Just because they differ from 'your ideas'? OOOOH, Does MORALITY(i wonder where it went all this time) come into play? ohohoh Aren't they just food to the cannibals, so it doesn't count, like it doesn't for you?  ^  Think about it for a while, don't have to reply to me, everything I could say, probably has been said already, just think about it.  ALso think about all the idiots praying to some magical shit in the sky, hoping they get into heaven so they can lie on their fat asses all day, well, why am I talking about these people? Well, that's because you're made up of the same stuff as them, if they could be delusional, so much so, that they think there's a special place in the sky where everyone who sucks god's dick goes, then how are you "immune" to delusions?  Have you ever revalued all your values?  Or the same stuff from 30 years ago stuck around?   Take your time.

  1005. mysalival100  Yes, of course, but you see, THAT is survival, that is Literally life or death, that is not murder because it is not done consciously, the beast follows its instincts and hunts, because it starves, and can't grow food or forage it or borrow it or but it.  But WE are NOT them, WE have the comfort of Civilisation, general peace, our ancestors working for us and making life easier, It's so fucking easy, that even if I don't try to get by in life, I still will!  Do you justify a person like this saying " Yeah I need to kill someone and eat their flesh, or else I will die."    Think like this for a sec: "Hey, ok, now let's see how my life is. Al right, not so bad, I get access to daily food, and multiple times, too. I don't have to fight off other people for my food, nobody kills me over it, my family isn't suffering and not starving to death. Then why should I make other animals suffer? When their death isn't helping my family or me, because I already have it so good and nobody around me is starving, should I really kill them, maybe they had a family they had to get back to, even if it is just for once more.  *WE* Have the CHOICE to stop killing. Wild animals don't. We have the Choice, to stop all this now, yet we use the excuses of what our ancestors had to do to survive, as a justification of our present actions, wouldn't that also justify raiding, pillaging, murdering, etc, etc. Why should I have these exceptions?*  If even a cat can stop itself from eating a rat, or a lion, a man. If even a* Wild Animal* can *go against its very nature*Then what excuse does the most intelligent animal on this planet have? There is nothing about our outward physical actions that we can't control. Nothing.

  1013. Favier Wei Hehe, yeah.  That happens because they have a warped idea of what 'good' is. And once they stop thinking of killing animals by the billions, as a good thing, they automatically become people who never bothered even when told, and ultimately get addicted to it. They also like to act like it's all "natural" and that they're not deliberately doing it(there is always some realisation even in their heads, of the animal's sentience, they're just so well indoctrinated).  Like it's all just part of their software. (which it is not, or we all would love killing animals.) There's also this thing, like " They look like me, if I protect their values and them, I will be protected in return." So even if they have no idea what the things they are making assumptions about, mean, They'll just nod to their beliefs without question, because it keeps them and their herd absolved from ever having to admit their acts, and get to do what they want without being judged. It is probably one of the only things that keeps them from realising the truth of their own actions, and keeps them as an "all goody 2 shoe good society following monkey", and I guess that's the closest thing to 'redeeming' themselves apparently. Not stopping the killing,  let's just change the way we think about it to  justify our means and ends, by ourselves.   Being a plague upon every sentient life on the planet, they STILL have the vanity to think of themselves as  great people. Is there any more delusional one can get?

  1023. ME3 How many Irish, italians, english, etc,etc, entered the country? it never 'belonged' to the people of the states in the first place. There is a difference in saying 'my country', and 'the country whose people the people who came before me, almost wiped off the face of this planet". If a native came and told you "hey, why are you here?" You wouldn't have an answer, and would only reply by the usual prejudice and some sense of finding offence in it, and feeling like you're in the position to do so. You know why the country's so fucked? Let me tell you: First, the christian delusion. Where every dumb christian thinks that ALL christians are good people and that someone, by default, being white and christian is the apex of a 'good man'. At the same time, those same 'good christian people' on the top, milk the shit out of you civilians who're just there as sheep, used to milk with blind consumerism and pushing their own agendas. So, you become the cause of your own shitty situation, because you trust the idiots, and then, since you don't want to take the blame on yourself, You will just point the blame at someone who doesn't look like you or someone who doesn't believe the same shit as you, because that's what dognitive dissonance does to people who are too hubris to admit their own fault. Delusion, misguidance, and prejudice. You also, are not in a place to ultimately argue and complain about 'immigrants', since you are NOT the natives, so you should just not waste your time hating on someone FOR NO LOGICAL REASON. The population is NOT THE PROBLEM, it's the Republican, conservative fucks you have voted into congress, and now they will eat the country inside out, as they already are with the debt being one example. So, believe what you want to, since pretending to be intelligent takes less effort than becoming so. Just look at the real problems and stop finding magical connections where there are none, you'll help yourself, and that shouldn't be the primary reason anyway. have fun.

  1026. ***** One, would be building army protected schools (which surely will take less than a trillion dollars), educating students (if they had done this, there would be highly educated graduates who would NEVER want to blow themselves or anyone up, and could teach others to stop, too. Sounds wishful, but isn't that what the war was? ;v. Give people something to live for, and they won't be running around looking for death. Teach them meaning in life, rather than looking for comfort in death. NOT BOMB THEM IN THEIR HUTS, lel. Send thousands of advisers to the countries, teaching them everything from basic agriculture to fucking complex marketing, and whatnot.  *That place is literally a fucking desert that keeps getting whatever ruins it has left, bombed in the name of freedom.*  I am sure THAT IS NOT THE BEST WE CAN DO. Let alone SUPPORT IT. Secondly, they had TOTALLY GARBAGE intelligence of the places they had a "Duty of PROTECTING". They didn't even have the capacity to understand another human being, let alone another animal, lol, sad really.   I also hope that you've watched the videos of the war that wikileaks released, the ones where entire vans of INNOCENT CIVILIANS got shredded by some white jesus humping fuck behind a remote controlled machine gun. And that was just ONE of the events, and just ONE of the ones that got Recorded.  AMERICAN PEOPLE, NODDED FOR THAT, AND PAID THEM TO DO THAT. (and all of this, took me TWO MINUTES TO COME UP WITH. They FAILED Even after TEN YEARS and Billions of billions of dollars >.< lol) Sad, really. But I guess nobody can be truly free from sin in this world, but amends can be made, sadly money seems more appealing than moral dignity and freedom from guilt.

  1027. TheMattd546 Hey there, would you mind looking for the figures, which state the number of american killed by "Terrorism"/"outside enemies",(This does not include people who go to wars and die willingly) and THEN, compare that to the number of people who die IN THE COUNTRY, due to LAUGHABLE healthcare, Housing, Job security, debts, Medicinal dependency/overdose, cop kills. No, seriously, if you wanna stick up to something, go the whole way, lol. Listening to cnn and Fox news doesn't count as being informed, lol. "The only important part of the government is suppose to be the military." Prove it first, then make claims, ok? "The constitution doesn't say 'we must have all these programs we have now'  In fact the constitution doesn't say "the government must provide school"  However it DOES say 'The Government MUST provide defense'..... .... ...LOL, what's the point of having EXCESS AMOUNTS OF WEAPONS AND WAR ACCESSORIES, when the PEOPLE ANYWAY DYING DUE TO Under-supported programs, while all the fucks in the military Milk you sheep by simply saying "You know, we need more money here, or who knows when another plane might fly into your face and kill all of uss ooohhhhhhhhh, scaryyyyyyyyy, so pay up" You do also realise, how OUTDATED that Shell of a constitution is? LOL. "If it comes down to "food stamps" or "protecting America"  I'm going with protecting America."   Oh, now  I see how you're able to believe the garbage you do;  It's because you are unable to dry understand something indepth, so, you just make a weightless assumption in your head, and then use your own shallow intellect to conclude its truth, how simple. Yeah, Delusional, Paranoid turds would rather go around killing random people, than spending fixing THEIR OWN FILTH.  But I guess once you Bandwagon, there's no going back, lol. So, I guess you'll just stick to what you want to believe for whatever remains of your life. "Why don't we cut 90% of other programs."  Because OTHER PROGRAMS ARE NOT STUFFED FULL OF TENS OF BILLIONS OF TAX PAYER DOLLARS, LOL!!!! DO I, A FOREIGNER HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT? WHAT A SHAME. ~637 BILLION AMRIKAN DOLARZ, is the defense budget. Wanna Milk the American Paranoid Sheep? JOIN THE MILITARY, REACH A HIGH RANK, BOOM BOOM MONEY BITCHEZZZ. The Sheep are scared shitless anyway, they ain't gonna ask to return it, lololo.

Since the beginning of your "country", the PEOPLE, have been SHEEPED into being Afraid, of vietnam, japan, germany, iraq, and the list goes on, that THEY'VE BRED YOU TO BE AFRAID, and to respond in fear. As well as keeping the majority delusional, or plain ignorant. "Republicans fought a war to free the slaves where  hundreds of thousands of Americans died so they could be free."  Yes, I'm sure the republicans, the one whose bible says that is is PERFECTLY COOL TO ENSLAVE PEOPLE OF OTHER SKIN, 'died protecting the very blacks they enslaved', righttttttttt. "Less then 2% of American owned slaves and the vast majority was against slavery." Again, you have no fucking clue. "A total of about 600,000 enslaved people were imported into the Thirteen Colonies and the U.S, constituting 5% of the twelve million enslaved people brought from Africa to the Americas. The great majority of enslaved Africans were transported to sugar colonies in the Caribbean and to Brazil. As life expectancy was short, their numbers had to be continually replenished. Life expectancy was much higher in the U.S. and the enslaved population also reproduced; enslaved peoples' numbers grew rapidly, reaching 4 million by the 1860 Census. "  <<<<  "Less than 2% people owned slaves, lul, wrong. What about how many benefited, and did nothing to stop it?  Yeah, 2 PERCENT of people, owned ALL OF THE SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND SLAVES, and THEIR CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN,  *Your brain's ability to rationalize nonsense, is admirable.* "the vast majority was against slavery." -< Wrong again. IF THE VAST MAJORITY of USAers were "Against slavery", then IT WOULDN'T BE AN ENFORCED LAW, LOL... jesus fucking christ, eh? "freedom", lol. People don't own their lands, their privacy, their own minds. You ever wondered, that maybe you've just been programmed so meticulously, to think that you are free? bahahaha I'm from India, I've never even been there, yet I seem to be less in denial and ignorance about it.

  1040.  @amicklich6729  I don't prefer to shift the blame on technology, like phones. It's the people who must self-regulate and not externalize their behavioral origins, in order to avoid putting in work to become less attached to what their phone gives them. Just how a smoker can't blame the cigarettes, but can do something about their choices. Same goes for any other dependency or addiction. Including technology, political ideology, etc. To be honest, tribalism is a vestigial emotion in a world where tribal isolation is largely non-existent. Therefore, a tribe focused impulse is unnecessary. And most ingroups that exist today are a pseudo tribe. Only existing to stroke and satiate the tribal bone in those humans. Tribalism was good when humans couldn't reason much. It became a good reason to fight and die for something. Now the world is different. You can fight and die for thousands of causes, which are not inherently even related to pseudo tribalism. We have reasons. And a better understanding of outcomes. Unlike our helpless ancestors who had nothing but the tribes they lived within. Which is why most people can still feel it strongly. Because on an evolutionary timescale, only minutes have passed since the first humans started emerging out of natural processes. Well, of course, along with a bunch of other impulses, that's why a lot can't help but kill and rape. It's the vestigial nature taking its natural time to become absolutely irrelevant and eventually be discarded by our specie.

  1046.  @PaulCHarris  It's much easier to see when you're not in the DvR tribal struggle. MOST Reps, in their foolhardy attempts to achieve moral "highground", end up latching to mostly dogma-inspired "moral virtues", which have no relation to the real world. Wasting away their existence, investing their being and time pushing baseless, tribe-enforcing beliefs. Where the individual sacrifices their mind and their only chance to exist, playing and leeching off tribal tug of war. Which really only makes the tribe "cohesive", be it on an untrue premise. And MOST dems, in their desperate attempt to seem "progressive and inclusive", end up bending over so far to any cry of "oppression or injustice" that their head goes up their own ass most of the time and they over-compensate in their attempts to do everyone "justice". Again, paying the same existential/individual costs as their nemesis tribe, all for a petty sense of "what's right and best for everyone", which is detached from reality, just like most reps. If your actions and beliefs have no requirement of being in line with the 'real world', then why even waste your existence, living in such a base fantasy of such a mundane, primitive design? Just go all out LARP mode and be a fucking high immortal elf ranger. Go be a shape shifting wizard or some shit. It's like choosing to deliberately spend your life projecting yours, or someone else's imagination and fantasies, which just happen to be some of the most boring make-believe roles one can think of to play as they walk towards death. Even this is a compressed explanation, and I'd really prefer to avoid going into too much detail. Since the filter of reading things online, gives the reader a lot more options to strawman, to distract, and to even just jump over a bunch of things. And there is barely any tangible sense of shame in doing so because I'm not in the reader's proximity. Also, the time and effort it would take for me to keep pointing things out and putting the conversation back on track is much greater than it would be otherwise. It's just sad when people latch on to pathetic ideologies, just to add something to their existence in order to give it mEaNiNg by finding the "wrong ones to fight against and protect THEIR personalised version of the true world". They'll never get to correct it, they'll never be able to go back. It's permanent. It's sad stuff if you really spend some time to try an think about this. Everything you believe in, or do in any way, you pay with for a part of your only life. off the imagery is gnarlyyy brahhhh!!! ExTREME SPORTZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LIVING ON DE EDGE!!!!!

  1050.  @azhmir4586  You are pretending to know about science (REALITY) while being completely ignorant on the matter. Your "feeling of knowing" is just a filler for the huge knowledge gap that you do not want to accept. -"RANDOM MUTATIONS" -"There cannot be an infinite chain of dependent events/being" These words of yours, show how little you know. There is no randomness, the laws which are this universe itself have no exception, there is no special treatment. And need no God. Your logic of "only god makes sense because otherwise the argument keeps pushing back infinitely" is so EXTREMELY MUNDANE. But neither you, nor the Quran or any other similar claim making books give a detailed explanation of early universe, they made NO MENTION of universal principles. And don't forget that the Quran is NOT meant to be openly interpreted however you like, it calls itself the LITERAL and FINAL word of God. Which means no goalpost moving and no wiggling out of what is written. Quran writers also believed that MOON and SUN revolved, but never mentioned EARTH also revolving, which is IDENTICAL COPY PASTE of GEO-centrism in OLDER books than the Quran. They also said that falling meteors (Shooting stars) are "magic missiles" which scares off the devils on Earth. No end to the holes in your PERFECT FINAL BOOK OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD, WHO IF YOU JUST FALL FOR BELIEVING IN FULLY, WILL GIVE YOU ETERNITY OF HEAVEN BRO HAHA, Stop getting Tempted by make believe, or you'll get used and abused by who control your beliefs.

  1126.  @RobinTheBot  Hi, sorry to say this, but your statement is scientifically uneducated. Your claim that "human babies have a better understanding of fear compared to other animals", is baseless, most animals Develop cognitive complexity at higher rates than humans. And animals in the wild are NATURALLY SELECTED TO MAXIMIZE their Fear-related cognition than most humans, who actually end up depending on group alerts rather than their own intuition and cognitive capacity to process fear. And many fears that humans possess are often arbitrary and counter-intuitive, like the fear of god or ghosts. One can easily make the case that HUMANS are MORE DELUDED about fear and suffering (along with other cognition) compared to any other cognitively complex organism. The very fact that you foolishly and wishfully seem to be CONVINCED that humans will NEVER STOP CONSUMING 'meat', is proof that you again, understand nothing about human evolution and the increasing aversion our specie is developing in regards to immoral behavior and animal flesh. You have no concept of where humans will end up in a few hundred years. It's beyond what your brain has been capable of making models of. There will soon come a point where humans will get no diseases, and need to consume no organic matter for sustenance, but you are desperate to feel right, therefore you've deluded whatever understanding you could've developed of the world, just so your preferred narrative would feel justified and sensible to you. "Fight the fight that can be won." *wow edgy one-liners. If only that ever won anybody an argument lol. All the best with the single chance at life you have. Either try to understand the world for what it is, or waste away blowing the only chance you'd ever get to do so :).

  1271. I'll give you a different example of what you said, these lines in particular "I really don't get it: it's illegal. Full stop." I don't like these REDUCTIVE statements, seems like a cheapshot at people who are suffering from the system of their country, while you are making shallow judgements from a comfortable space. While you read through this, just make sure to not think I have anything against you, because I don't. I am just going to write so you get a frame of reference. Here's the example you should reflect on: Let's say for this argument, there is a country, and in that country prostitution is going to SOON become legal, maybe in 1 year, maybe less. BUT there is a twist, before its legalization, there are already many women who have to work as prostitutes to survive and feed their family, because many were abandoned as babies by their parents, and they never really got any education or learned any useful skills. THEN, suddenly, robbers and other criminals start attacking the prostitutes, taking all their money, and sometimes raping them (Because they KNOW that Prostitution is illegal, and the Cops will not come after those criminals if they target women working as prostitutes). Now just like this situation, the women can't go to the cops, because prostitution is illegal for few more months. And the women who go report to the cops that they were raped, beaten or robbed, end up getting arrested by the cops, and their children are taken from them, and their home is also seized. Because the women are CRIMINALS, and their children are NOT SAFE with them, and their property can just be used to do MORE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. Would you still say "I really don't get it: It's illegal. FULL STOP"????

  1272. I understand Timo B., but if you spend some time studying/watching, let's take South-African regions, which were ravaged by apartheid and civil war, it Literally, becomes Impossible for women to do any other work, except push drugs or sell their body, because there is NO MARKET FOR ANYTHING ELSE. And of course the Canadian Government has failed in providing equal chances for all, They're the same fucking government that will raid your store after someone robbed it. They didn't roll this law on a dice game, it was INTENTIONALLY put there, and it is purposefully enforced. There is clearly someone who profits off by things remaining this way. You should believe me when I tell you, in some people's lives, the choices are only black and white. "People do not need to smoke cannabis." I know you're saying this out of personal experience, because you seem to be someone who smokes only for re-creation/fun. But you've really not gone through dozens of videos where THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS ON THE PATEINT WITHOUT CAUSING DANGEROUS SIDE-EFFECTS, is CANNABIS. And not necessarily the whole cannabis bud, rather certain active components within it. But You might already know the governments of the world are run by old ignorant people who are the LEAST LIKELY TO CHANGE THEIR OPINIONS WHEN FACTS PRESENT THEMSELVES. They also need to CONTINUE the system that benefits them. It's how petty homo sapiens work. They don't think, they act on their fears and impulses. Don't believe cannabis is the only thing that works? Watch these people who have DAILY SEIZURES and suffer from cerebral palsy among other Diseases, and see how it affects them. Since I doubt I can link the videos here, I'll write the KeyWords, and you search them on youtube, then play the first/second video that comes up, deal?- here you go: 0- Multiple Sclerosis and Ataxia with Medical Marijuana < around 4 mins, man with glasses on thumbnail. 1- epilepsy and cannabis < the video around 7 minutes long 2- Cerebral Palsy and Medical Marijuana | Cannabis Medicine < woman on thumbnail, around 5 mins long. 3- Medical Marijuana and Parkinson's Part 3 of 3 < old man, video is around 3 minutes long. You can spend the whole day watching these people's lives if you want. In the end you will only change your mind if you want it to change in tune with reality. all the best yo

  1366.  @mmatthews61687  "it gets killed in it's natural environment without suffering" Those are a lot of contradictory claims. Wow, guy, you're really good at convincing yourself, aren't you? Sure, the environment is natural to it. But the weapon it is killed by sure as fuck is the most unnatural thing in its environment. Along with the wannabe macho-man hiding in a camo suit behind some bush, that sure as fuck isn't its natural predator. Without suffering? Now that is some deep self-deception lmao. You're obviously poorly educated, or illiterate in regards to nutrition, because only someone ignorant of dietary facts would make an edgy statement like "Not all of us eat an all soy died bud". It's worthless, but from your perspective, it's a sick diss lol. You're clearly bandwagoning with the broscientists like Joe is, only to feel redeemed and justified in your life choices. If hunting an animal in the jungle, with a gun and other modern, unnatural tools is "totally chill and justified". Then obviously, Hunting other humans in their natural environment is also "totally chill and justified", yeah bud, also raping humans (mostly women) is totally natural since our specie evolved that naturally. Also infanticide and slavery (oh and murder) are perfectly natural. But the funny question is, why of all these things, only hunting is justified in your silly little mind? Oooohhh!!! Perhaps you're just concerned with getting away with what you want to do, and protecting your own ass. Reality sure as fuck doesn't seem to matter to you ;) Don't even answer me here, this is more for you to think about the mental gymnastics you engage in to fool yourself. I already know why you think what you think lmao. This is for you to try find out as well. Your existence is running out, and it's neck deep in immoral self-indulgence hehe, wink wink ;;)

  1412.  @mohal-sal3998  But of course there are differences across varying populations regarding "IQ", which in itself is a poorly formulated metric, with a very narrow ability to measure "intellectual capacities" as a whole. Charles Murray already proved that there are differences in IQ of people living in different environments for sufficiently long times. And that's right, differences do not mean inferiority/superiority. But then again it is also obvious that any IQ tests today, still fail to evaluate many aspects of the brain. I merely approached this thread from the angle of refuting what the Andy Capp guy said, so I didn't intend on going into detail, as it can get rather verbose, like this comment already. His claim was that 'Japan is ethnically pure, which is the reason they're world leaders in innovation, and therefore, ethnic purity is good'. I am also not a student of evolutionary biology, but then again, the value of being a "student in an institute" is no longer the same as it was 200, or 20 years ago. The knowledge is vastly more accessible online, compared to what any attended institute can ever teach an individual. The only thing that needs sharpening, is one's ability to distinguish pseudoscience from reality. So finally, to conclude it, yes, I totally agree that there are IQ differences among varying populations/races. No question about that. But we also know that IQ is not synonymous with overall intellectual capacity, and it only accounts for a handful out of the total specializations that a brain can do. And the main issue with the IQ scale, is that it almost convinces some people to think that the smartest people cannot come from the lowest average IQ populations, and the Highest average IQ populations will never have the dumbest people, which is untrue. Meaning that though it may succeed as a signifier of general herd IQ, it utterly fails at the individual level.

  1413.  @mohal-sal3998  On the first paragraph, I mostly agree, though the nuance here, is the fact that despite it being a good predictor of "success at a national and individual level", it merely does that in a Narrow, Money Chasing/Capitalist System. It would get too complex writing down about the existential cost per person (and collective) giving a part of their single chance at living, to temporarily perpetuate this system of operating for our specie and getting validation in return. Genetics are inevitably, very important in "how intelligent a person can become". For some cliche examples; Einstein, Newton, Bach, were all very gifted genetically in certain departments, and their contributions have been fantastic, we can all agree. However, if they were born on a distant, tribal island far from civilization and a good education/specialization system, they would be NOTHING compared to what good education made them. No matter how fantastic their "intelligence based genes" were. They would be just another homo sapiens somewhere on a landmass, nothing more, nothing less. That is what Im trying to explain. Genetics and education. Both fail without the other, no matter how good. And within decades (or centuries if things go to shit) will come a point where every human will be given a level playing field. Genes will become irrelevant, and so will education systems. Every disease will be curable, every disadvantage, leveled. All the petty things humans bicker about now will become irrelevant. And finally, individuals will be able to live as themselves instead of being haunted by their genes, society, environment, etc.

  1435. Correction - We have innate sense of fairness >>> Most of us have an innate sense of fairness, others don't, due to genetic factors. Then later in life, many of us will diminish our sense of fairness to OTHERS (while Mostly retaining it in regards to ourselves, sometimes intensified), due to the evolutionary pressures humans feel within relatively more complex ecosystems, which we call "civilization", the irony of the word says a lot. Side note - Sure the humans who do become more "unfair", often CAN stop the transition, but don't. Either A- due to lack of moral/self-preserving motivation, or B- due to pure ignorance/unawareness of the change within their mind. Basically, what I want to state, is: 1- A MAJORITY of humans do have an innate (nature) sense of fairness, Like most other Mammals do. But, certain events or pressures (nurture -> these are reductive terms but get the message through) in their lives can reduce the amount of fairness they show toward others, especially those distant from their immediate surroundings/social sphere. 2- Entities that make Large sums of "money", will often either have to UNDERPAY the people who produce/process the services they make money out of (usually called employees), or OVERCHARGE for the service/good/utility/etc. Basically, someone is going to inevitably get "fucked over" for a slightly higher profit margin. This is all a fragment of the evolutionary process, but unfortunately, sentient individuals are the test subjects, and there is no opting out completely, one can only adapt so far as their genetic and environmental potential combined, allows. Along with the knowledge they end up bumping into.

  1442. I look at the comments section, and by what seems to appeal to majority of vice viewers, I can conclude either: a- The average commenter and "reactor" seem to either be a long time sub of vice, and has watched a lot of shit from around the world (sure, a lot of it is stupid, but that's the world), yet failed to expand their understanding in some of the simplest and most obvious things. This is the kind of person who might convince themselves that they are "all about the real world, man", and they don't make up beliefs and rationales whenever something inconvenient pops up. Yet they lie to themselves that there is some justification to literally,- Collectively denying billions of sentient organisms a relatively 'natural life', one that their biochemistry was made in relation to. And instead keeping them locked away for the ENTIRETY of their existence. And then one day their turn comes to get the chopper, and feed some random unphased ape who's a part of humanity. To whom their packed body parts look like the Before image of something delicious. It's like a rapist who doesn't see the suffering, or perhaps, derives greater joy, precisely because suffering is involved, there must even be people who derive a sense of 'domination/superiority'. With the right Context, killing "even a human" is justified, so there's nothing inherently wrong about killing something, in the right context, that is (self-defense, near fatal starvation, etc). So, let me correct anyone here, it is not 'eating some meat' that is objectively immoral, but the fact that it is done in the foulest, most improper contexts, systematically. lol. The red herrings are fun tho. b- They've just recently found this channel and have lived a "personalised/customized" fuzzy, self-deluding type of life so far. Just how the suffering of a human might be "subjective" depending on who sees the suffering, and mainly the capacity of each different individual's system to suffer.

  1521.  @JamesJoyce12  That's exactly what he said, in simpler terms. He's using word trickery to minimize and personalize phenomenological facts regarding matter that composes minds and their respective states, which all operate under the EXACT SAME universal principles as ALL OTHER, NON-EXPERIENCING matter in existence. The questions of "whether one state of actions is superior morally, than another state of actions" has nothing to do with sentiment. Sure, humans may by default rely on imperfect, subjective internal frameworks for judgement making (which include sentiments), but that doesn't conveniently get stretched into claiming that there is no one answer to "whether an action is moral or not". I can use sentiments to derive whether one hydro dam produces more electricity than another hydro dam, but that doesn't end up meaning that the output of either dam can be higher depending on my feelings, as if there is no hydro dam in existence and it's just all a fiction of my mind. And it also doesn't imply that beyond my feelings, there is no actual "knowable state of electricity generation". Moral claims ARE NOT claims relating to IMAGINARY topics and concepts, it's a claim about a PHENOMENOLOGICAL FACT of interactions between minds and their actions, and how they impact each other. SURE, there is a subjective interpretation of those things, but that DOES NOT mean it isn't happening in objective reality. "more suffering" and "less suffering" are not imaginary occurrences m8, no matter how much a fat rich racist "philosopher" wants you to believe lol. Whether slavery causes more suffering and existential degenerations of minds involved, than less, is not a fucking "oh we can't conclude it factually so we just have to depend on arbitrary line-drawing". To keep it simple if you can't bear to read the full response - "human experiences happen in human brains, human brains are matter, humans didn't make humans - the universal principles did - just like with ALL OF EXISTENCE. Morality pertains to experiences of minds, since EVERYTHING IN THE EQUATION is an objectively real thing, and follows the same pervading laws, morality itself is a calculable fact, since nothing arbitrary falls into the equation (though imperfect brained humans will often engage in make believe bullshitery, out of no choice of their own, like in anything else).

  1534.  @j2323j  On the macro scale, away from quantum functions, there exist sentient organisms. Organisms whose every process, experience, action, is bound by the classical laws of physics. Because those are the laws which all sentient organisms in this universe emerge from. And morality of an action only exists relative to systems capable of perceiving them. And since all sentient systems obey the same universal laws, Negative outcomes inflicted on other sentient systems despite no need for self-preservation, but simply out of a desire to experience 'taste', 'luxury' 'pride', etc., are inherently immoral. Because there is only 1 "collective process happening, and only 1 overall outcome", therefore, morality of any outcome/action, has objective moral implications. And any "subjective, personalized" comprehension of such events, as to "better suit oneself, or one's herd", is just a product of the failure of that perceiving system to take all variables into account, and over-prioritizing personal preference. Basically; objective morality exists. Subjective, 'man-made/you-made'' morality, is just a result of one's limited understanding, or capacity to understand. Humans can still come close to the true sum of the moral implications of any action, but mostly fail to do so, simply because their irrational operations override any objective rationality. So, if a cow suffers unnecessarily, just because you 'want' something from it, that's a no no. But if the cow doesn't suffer, then it's chill. Doesn't matter what anyone "thinks or feels about it".

  1575.  @djwaltoaram7052  You have a very surface level understanding of how biology (physics) translates into a universal mechanism of sentience and universal morality (which depends on sentience). What you are trying to do, is to feel convinced of your understanding a large mass of information by simply knowing a few topics and using that to conclude that you fully understand it to make a final judgement on the matter. When as a matter of fact, you can easily see for yourself when animals help other animals out of no objective benefit to themselves, and at times also end up risking their own survival. And on the other hand they have no pedestal for their own specie, everyone is open to killing if it comes to that. There is proof of bears saving drowning birds, cats saving fishes. Dogs helping lizards n shit. Just ONE example is enough to negate your claim of "they only help their own specie. And it's even weirder because you contradict yourself in the next line saying "inter specie violence is their way of life". They conduct both, Inter and intra species violence. These examples you use are prone to violence in all spaces. Humans also have naturally been lovers of intraspecies violence. Does that mean if someone threatens to kill you for your house and belongings, you will just "handle it naturally" and not call the cops? Because calling the cops or reporting to any "authority" would be unnatural of human behavior. You're believing in 2 mutually incompatible things. And you only delude yourself. Whether it makes you feel good or not is another matter entirely. "And its not wrong. It cannot be fixed." This shows how you don't even know evolution is change and progress, because you have confused it as some unchanging process. Which is the only way your conjecture feels valid.

  1577. ​ @djwaltoaram7052  Clearly I'm not the one jumping to any conclusions here. I merely responded to what you wrote to me. You are not the one who had to spend their time replying to 'some guy on youtube' lol. Just how a physicist cannot make any unfounded claim and vindicate it by saying "I've been working as a physicist since I left university 6 years ago". And neither can you. I certainly didn't "insult you". I said you are wrong and delusional. Which you in turn, took as something to feel insulted by. I made no ad hominems here. While you indirectly call me ignorant without anything to back it up with. For an ethologist 6 years practicing, saying something as surface-level as and I quote " it appears to be the same with humanity. And its not wrong. It cannot be fixed. Life after all is just a bunch of physical and chemical reactions" is really not doing yourself any favors. It's evident enough already, that when all adaptive pressures that give rise to violent/aggressive traits within organisms are removed, the impulses/genes/traits associated with them will also recede into non-existence (or can be forcefully removed, given sufficient technology). It is merely a matter of the specie within any ecosystem, that evolves into the niche of abstraction, to reach a point in its advancement, where it can completely overwrite the evolutionary paradigm of that ecosystem (such as earth, for homo sapiens). At that point natural evolution takes a back seat. Basically, you were wrong in claiming that this is how it is and it's never gonna change cuz evolution.

  1591. DarxPhil, I just have to tell you that you are mixing "subjective interpretations of morality" with "morality". The reason why nobody can say "Morals are individualistic" is because ANYTHING arising from this universe, like animals and their capacity to suffer, will all follow the universe's laws. And because they all follow the same rules, they all have an objective state, which can be interpreted Subjectively, but that doesn't change the objective truth of it. In a theoretical sense, there is ONE certain state of arranging every sentient organism's lives as to remove all suffering and maximize pleasure. And ONE certain state of arranging everything to cause the greatest amount of misery. These both potentials fall on the opposite ends of The "MORAL SPECTRUM". Every act done by sentient organisms toward other sentient organisms is a part of this spectrum, and either leans towards moral, or immoral behavior. You might, or your whole society, or even specie might subjectively create their own standards based on what suits them, but that does not change the REALITY of suffering and the existential states and potentials of other sentient organisms. Everything that can suffer falls within the sphere of moral good or bad. Inanimate objects do not, unless they can indirectly be used to cause suffering to a sentient organism. Basically morality applies to everything that can suffer, and you can look at it in any way you want, but that doesn't change the facts. Just how a rapist is always a rapist no matter how many people say otherwise, even if the whole human population says otherwise, the facts do not change. In the same way, the murder of another sentient organism is still murder, no matter how many societies enjoy committing it on a daily basis and pat each other on the back for it.
