Freedom of choice does not preclude you from being called out for making shitty choices dumb dumb.

Posting a photo is not stealing, what dumb takes you have friend. Look up ‘fair use’ and that should help you understand that.

Also, just, idk, what even is this argument? Choices can’t be made in a vacuum and choices can’t be forced on people are not antithetical to shitty choices being shitty choices.

Mine followed me inside one day and just said she lived here now. And then two months later I came home one morning and she leads me to under my bed and proceeds to have five kids and say ‘these are our problem now’

Maybe not deluded but definitely taking a moral high ground so high you can see straight up their whole ass.

To be clear, not arguing for slavery. Just pointing out that comparing human bondage and enslavement to animal domestication, is incredibly demeaning and dehumanizing to those enslaved people’s.

The fuck is this hog wash?

No it is 1000% AI slop.

I’m so tired

Are you kidding? Hating on Andy Yen for saying dumb shit he didn’t actually literally say is basically a Lemmy staple meme by now.

I’d take the actual press release and promotional material over AI slop any and every fuckin day personally speaking.

Try the last 50-70 years my guy…

Np, appreciate the acknowledgment.

I’ll pass.

You wanna share your opinion as it differs to mine, I’m happy to engage with that. But I am absolutely not interested in whatever tit for tat, nit-picky debate that wants to be.

I’m saying as long as the consumption of animals and animal products is part of the most viable means for satisfying the nutritional debt of the human species, the human psychological need to distinguish between pets and livestock is necessary.

Do we need, or is it right to keep pets? is its own set of moral questions.

I agree with you in principle, but until at which point we have the technological and production capabilities in place to fully feed the planet without the need for livestock and other animal sources of nutrients, the distinction has to exist. We may have gotten to the point of being technologically capable but the human population is very much reliant on animal sources to sustain itself. And so the distinction is necessary. I’m not arguing that it’s right or just or morally correct. But it’s where we are and what is required to continue existing as a species.

And by no means am I saying that those animals we see as livestock don’t deserve to be treated with care and respect while they are alive. I just believe the distinctive categories of pets and livestock are an unfortunate requirement of our current situation.

To clarify I meant schnirittos was giving the libertarian vibes of immediately calling any amount of curation or harm reduction via removal on social media sites a blanket ‘censorship bad slipery slope boogie woogie.’ And was agreeing with whom I directly replied to.

Schnirittos’ (I know I’m getting it wrong but i just can’t be bothered to go check for a third time I’m sorry) comment, I think, exemplifies(in part) the American-bastardized version of libertarianism you describe.

Gahd damn you sound like a cunt

Like, yea this is a thing to be concerned about in general, but this/here is not it my guy…

Giving me that libertarian vibe of wanting to be fiercely independent of the thing they rely on for survival.

To clarify, this comment is agreeing with whom it is a direct reply of and commenting on the poster they are replying to.

That bottom bowl looks plastic, just push on the side gently to try and break the seal around the other dish.

People who treat pets as property are not good people. This guy gets it.

Gods I miss TFTS so bad
