"Natural" or "unnatural" isn't a thing, unless you believe in ghosts. Same as "humans are meant/built/made to X", unless you're one of those delusional cultists who think some deity designed us all.

Whatever we do, it's "natural" and can most often be found elsewhere in nature. There are ants that farm aphids for fuck's sake and other animals that do even weirder shit.

You want to show me an ant jerking off an aphid to reproduce them?

I miss r/natureismetal. It was at times highly educational

OK, so first of all, what they are doing in this picture is checking if the cows are pregnant. I have never seen someone being table to impregnate cows by sticking their arm up their ass.

Second thing you should remember: In nature the bull literally does not fucking care. If a cow is ovulating (bulls and cows are able to detect when this is the case), he will literally try to fuck the specific cow the entire fucking day. IRS not like he fucks the cow once and then its done, we are talking about the bull following the cow the whole day and continuously (trying to) fucking her.

I would argue, that a single small metal rod is less tiring than a horny bull trying to fuck you the whole day.

And before people are going to throw shit at me: No, this does not mean, that industrial grade factory farming is in any form or shape a good system. I have seen it all and I know how incredibly bad it can be. However, I Am not a fan of throwing the word rape (even if the exact word has not been used here) around, simply because you could somewhat classify the natural process as rape too.

They are not checking for pregnancy. They are impregnating the cows.

Though the anus they hold the cow's cervix in order to stick the insemination rod: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/l6AdaYfgcfk

Getting fisted is better than getting mounted all day? Sure, you're still gonna exploited throughout your whole life and when they can't exploit you anymore, killed. But you forgot at least another option besides fisting and getting mounted: not being bred into existence for the sole purpose of being exploited to death.

Why do you care if factory farming is bad?

[-] Jarix@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago

.... Because they have seen it in person and know how different factory farming is to ranching properly?

I assume from reading their comment, I'm just guessing

[-] lalo@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 hours ago

If they don't hold the cervix, they're gonna be poking that insemination rod into the cow's cervix for a while until it gets to the canal.

I mean... it is.

Looking at this directly from a viewpoint of what is "natural" for the human body, being vegan is unnatural.

Being an omnivore is. Our entire digestive system is such that the natural diet of the human body is an omnivorous one and it does best when treated as such. And that means a small amount of animal fats, proteins, trace minerals, and amino acids in one's diet.

I'm not going to argue morals or ethics, because that wasn't what the post was about. It's what's about what is "natural."

Yes, you may disagree with me. Strenuously, and just know that I respect you and hope that you and yours have an excellent day wherever you happen to be on this flaming cannonball of a planet we call home.

The best Thai soup I ever had was from a place called Don Vegan in Quebec City. It was absolutely amazing. Still love a good beef dip though

[-] Worstdriver@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

The Krishna temple in Burnaby used to have a wonderful vegan restaurant. Absolutely amazing food.

[-] JuliaSuraez@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

Discussions like this usually get heated fast. At the end of the day, people make food choices for different ethical, cultural, and practical reasons — it’s probably more productive to talk about systems and standards than attack each other.

[-] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

I don't think that's the right hole for that, weirdo.

[-] HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 hours ago

Mr.Vegan you realize that cows don't have a cloaca right?

[-] Goatboy@lemmy.today -1 points 3 hours ago

I don't care anymore. If yall think animals are people then yall can be animals.

[-] lalo@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 hours ago

2 steps ahead of you, I've been a mammal since I was born.

[-] JackbyDev@programming.dev 1 points 1 hour ago

Imagine being born as a marsupial. Couldn't be me. I'm a mammal. I am definitely not a Virgina Opossum.

[-] Goatboy@lemmy.today -1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

This is funny to you because you're a sociopath. You do not belong with functional people.

You people spent two days comparing Black women to cattle. Fuck you. Fuck veganism, fuck your hippie privileged bullshit.

[-] lalo@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 hours ago

I'm definitely not a sociopath. I cannot even feel if you're mad or not.
