To be fair, EVERYTHING is more expensive than beans (50¢ a lb Chicagoland cooked), rice ($33¢ a lb cooked), and broccoli $1 a lb frozen)

The one that got me most was Thumping, the standard operating procedure for killing baby piglets. They grab them by the back of the head and smash them into concrete until they’re dead, depicted ~6 minutes into Dominion

For me it was thumping, the industry standard way of killing piglets by grabbing them by the back of the head and smashing them into concrete until they’re dead. That or the CO_2 acidifying every mucus lining in a pig’s body, chemically burning them alive while they suffocate to death because people get enjoyment out of it

No, plants do not feel pain. They do not have a nervous system, they do not have consciousness, etc.

Even if they did, that’s still an argument for veganism. Where do you think animals get the energy they store in their bodies? They don’t absorb it from the sun. They eat plants, use some of that energy sustaining their life, then you eat them and absorb some of what’s left. Anywhere from 1/4 to 1/10th of the energy they originally consumed. Meaning if you are looking to minimize suffering, regardless of whether or not plants feel pain (which they don’t), eating plants directly is how you do that.

Nah, don’t you understand? I’m literally designed to hunt and kill animals, just like other predators.

This gun? Well how else am i supposed to kill them? I don’t have any sort of claws or sharp teeth or anything designed to kill animals for sustinence

What do you mean why am i cooking the meat? I’ll get sick if i don’t, just like every other predator on the planet. Plus, i couldn’t even chew it if it were raw.

And all that is assuming natural = moral, which, if your moral code is equivilant to a lions, is not compatible with society. But it’s convenient to not change most people’s behavior, so they’re cool ignoring the logical conclusion of that argument.

Those aren’t included because they’re not part of my diet. Therefore not part of my food budget or anything i pay attention to the price of.

I don’t eat meat as a part of my diet, so I don’t bother keeping track of those prices, nor is it relevant to my food budget per month. My comment was just to detail my experience.
