Hey robots. Why is nature so brutal?
>>
>>24763677
The time has come to an end
Yeah -- this is what nature planned

Being tracked by a starving beast
Looking for its daily feast
A predator on the verge of death
Close to its last breath
Getting close to its last breath

(Rules of Nature)

And they run when the sun comes up
With their lives on the line
(Alive)
For a while
(No choice)
Gotta follow the laws of the wild
(Alive)
With their lives on the line
(No choice)
Out here only the strong survive

What's done is done
Survived to see another day
The dance of life
The hunter and the agile prey
No guarantee
Of which of them will succeed
Strong or weak

(yell)

Exactly, they weren't always. Early humans ate raw meat just fine. Cooking isn't some magical invention that helped early humans, they cooked because it tasted better. Then evolution simply did the rest and removed the unnecessary raw meat processing ability. Not the other way around. If cooking disappeared tomorrow humans would evolve to eat raw meat again.

If we ate exclusively cooked meat and no plants we would still be carnivores

I'm a vegetarian, but I don't dwell on anyone else's personal lifestyle choices. The only person any of us can be responsible for is ourselves. Either you possess enough empathy to say "I give a shit about animal welfare" and stop eating animals, or you don't. Not everyone's brain is wired the same way. So no amount of arguing with a complete stranger is going to turn them onto your preferred dietary lifestyle. If anything, it's just going to be make them hate you (and your lifestyle) only out of spite.

Yeah, our teeth can't cut through bone. We can pierce flesh, but that's not nearly enough to eat a whole animal, and most animals have skin much tougher than ours.
And your shrinking brain argument is retarded, the only thing the "studies" found was that
-Low levels of B12 can adversely affect brain size in old age.
-Dietary intake of high amounts of B12 can belay this problem.
-B12 supplements were not studied to see if they had an effect on brain shrinkage

Gorillas only eat carcasses because there was nothing else to eat, their diet is strictly vegetarian.
Primates don't hunt for meat usually- they eat meat once in a while, but prefer to eat fruits and nuts. Yes they value meat, but only because of it's taste.
Humans are not meant to eat meat in the large quantities we are today. There's people that eat meat every day, which is not what early humans did.

Yes we are excellent distance runners, but how often do you think early humans could hunt an animal like this? It requires an extreme amount of energy and time, so it's not something that would happen every day. Meat wasn't an everyday thing like it is today.

>>24766291
The human body does start to fail and break down past a certain age, and eating meat only accelerates this. Look at everybody these days with cardiovascular disease or atherosclerosis, early humans didn't have these problems because they didn't eat meat as frequently as we do now

"Humans are primates too, so we need similar nutrients to gorillas."

This is not necessarily true. The teeth and guts of great apes differ from humans in ways that indicate an adaptation to eating cooked food and animal products. These adaptations likely reinforced the increasing size of the human brain. Humans lack the muscle that apes have because much more energy is directed toward the brain compared to apes.

I don't know specifically about gorillas, but I have heard that chimps spend about 12 hours per day every day chewing. It takes a lot of time and energy for them to survive on raw plants, and humans are less capable of doing so. Humans eating high protein/fat animal products need not spend even an hour per day eating.

Congrats, you became aware of what's happening and are becoming more like a normal person. I recently became vegan as well, and it was for a number of reasons, but the main one was that I realized what a hypocrite I, and most of the world is when it comes to animals. People say they love animals but then eat them and are completely unaware of the atrocities these animals face before they are eaten, or if they are aware they ignore it and try to justify it to themselves. It's sickening, and I didn't want to be a part of it anymore.

Gorillas can cultivate bacteria in their gut, which breaks down the collagen from plants for them, and gives off large quantities of proteins that the gorilla then uses. We humans cannot do that.

Stop trying to make points out of shit you don't know anything about. It completely ruins anything you were trying to say.

Why go to one extreme instead of buying and campaigning for more humane treatment of animals?

Go to local butchers (or better yet a farm shop), buy free range, boycott shit with animals shoved in like sweets and don't eat at shitty fast food restaurants. It's what I do and my conscious is all the better for it.

You're not going to win any friends if you paint every meat eater as a hypocrite and every farmer/butcher/whatever as a soulless battery farming sociopath.

The problem is that the animals end up dying in the end, so the way they are raised, to me, is irrelevant if they are going to have their throats slit in the end anyway. All this "grass fed" and local "free range" shit is just to make people feel better about themselves for something terrible that they indirectly cause.

And I don't have a problem with meat eaters, I have a problem with people denying reality or having an inconsistent world view ("I love animals, but I also eat them"). It's cool if you eat meat, just don't be ignorant about what actually happens and concede the fact that you support cruelty.

Go away, Muhammad. No-one outside of Halal or the REALLY bad meat producers kill in anything but the most humane way possible.

You talk about killing for meat as 'something terrible' when it has been this way for many centuries and until we can grow a steak in a lab it'll stay that way.

We are all also going to die in the end, same with the animals. At least with free range 'shit' we know that they are guaranteed a happy, well-fed life. The wild isn't some utopia for animals, it's just where they naturally are and they've grown to adapt to it.

The second paragraph just reiterates the 'hypocrite' point whilst basically saying that to be a meat eater you must also hate animals. I love animals and I eat them. I guess I'm a filthy hypocrite personally in cahoots with John McBatteryFarm
