Welllll I am doing a hardcore run so my grouping up is limited ^^
I recently started playing WoW again. This time on Turtle WoW and it’s really impressive with how much care the devs expanded on vanilla. Love it, really.
Also started playing OSRS again since I hate my job and will only do the absolute bare minimum going forth. In between it’s time to grind lol
Also, *penetrating* bolt guns are a thing and yes, they do kill.
Nope, they stun as well.
“The bolt penetrates the skull of the animal, enters the cranium, and catastrophically damages the cerebrum and part of the cerebellum. Concussion causes destruction of vital centers of the brain and an increase in intracranial pressure, causing the animal to lose consciousness. This method is currently the most effective type of stunning, since it physically destroys brain matter (increasing the probability of a successful stun), while also leaving the brain stem intact and thus ensuring the heart continues to pump during the exsanguination.[2] One disadvantage of this method is that brain matter is allowed to enter the blood stream, possibly contaminating other tissue with bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, colloquially known as mad cow disease).”
Lol you are changing the hypothetical cause you know exactly that this would be cruel and that you would try to stop it if you saw it happening. It’s so dishonest.
You didn’t answer my question. The dog in the picture, if someone came over and instead of rescuing it would have instead stunned it and slit its throat. Again, not because of hunger, just because of taste preference, would you call that cruel?
Oh btw. something being part of nature surely isn’t justification for humans to do it. Animals mate without consent in nature and I hope you are not a proponent of that as well.
And bolt guns specifically stun their victims, they don’t kill. For the bleeding out to be quick and efficent, the heart of the animal has to be beating still. I’ve been to slaughterhouses and I’ve seen it.
It doesn’t have to, but in the case of eating animals it does equal cruelty. For what other pleasure than taste would there be this much bickering when the price is an animals life?
Let’s stay with the dog in the picture, would it be cruel to stun it with a bolt gun, hang it upside down and slit it’s throat? Not out of neccesity but because you like the taste?
Edit: Again, downvoting won’t change this :)
Being an ass was not in question, being able to comprehend cruelty was.
Sure but a non-vegan can absolutely comprehend putting their own convenience over the well-being of an animal. Downvoting won’t change that.
Are you vegan?
More Nazis should go climbing :)
So quick question: You are completely fine with a trans woman using the women’s rest room right?
ACAB, always, everywhere
Really? Have never encountered that. But even if, that’s what vpns are for. And since steam isn’t losing any money that way they probably don’t care about it either.
So I will have to buy the games on GreenManGaming etc. Oh no.
Anyways…
I don’t think a lot of people would buy e.g. BotW for 100 bucks.
If you kill a sentient being for pleasure against its will, there is nothing that could make it ethical.
Vatnik delusions have reached new heights lmao
