Ive just been doing some catching up in this forum, and it suprises me how little people who call themselves communists care about other beings. Homocentric much?
I happen to be vegan (and since most of you seem uneducated in this topic, that means no eggs, diary products, latex, or meat.
Does it not occur to any of you meat eaters that cows, pigs, chickens all feel pain? That capitalism -what all you hate- has turned what we think farming is, into industrial farming, a process you happily support? Hypocritically a little?
Chicken, a food loved by many, in western socitey has 1square foot to coop. Gets injected with over 25 types of antibiotics, and 3 types of hormones. And the most brutal process of de-peaking no more than a few hours after hactching. Why? Chickens with beaks are lost profitable.
Cattle in Brazail, Canada, and Unite States has increased in size not by crossbreading, but by hormones -once again, hormones- by over 35%. Why? So capitalist can make more money off your "right to eat meat".
And here you people are. Drinking thier milk, eatting thier flesh. The same flesh those hormones inbed themselves in. Healthly?
Many people see wrong in sweatshops. But yet most of you see no wrong in factory farming? What the fuck? People, children, die on sweatshop labour and lack of wages, yet, 300 animals die every second in America alone for consumption!
Oh people are different, we care about people, just not animals?
All creatures are equal, all animals feel pain (some scientific research has recently come out saying fish may not, they brain is infinitly more complex than ours, so we can't be certain) you care about human pain, but not animal pain? We are animals.
'We evolved to eat meat.' Paritally right, kinda wrong. Our eyes are pointed in front of us, this is a trait of hunters, and not hunted, yes. However like all large mamals, they are not carnivourous, but very strong herbi-omnivores. "Your wrong!" Am I? Bears, wolves, coyotes, large primates, all very strong herbivoric-omnivoric tendancies. For example, bears will eat salmon during spawning time yes, however during the other 80% of thier year they prefer the consumption of berries. This can be supported by thier scat.
Anyone who consumes meat, is homocentric, a trait you share with the most dire of capitalists.
You know what I could go on forever, but if you are emptathic as most would like to think, they will do some research on thier own to see the truths of flesh consumption.
"I lived in agony in nasty, diseased waste. The line speed faster, he sliced me in haste. I was boiled alive to take the fur off my skin. Factory Farming is Systemic Sin."
"Crammed in the dark, I live in poop, In one square foot I am forced to coop. Hormones, antibiotics don't ease my pain. 'Til I'm murdered for my remains"
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated"

oh one more note. Fruitopia? Not veggie friendly, has crushed up beetles. Latex? Made with meat, almost all soaps hair conditioners, toothpastes, gels, made with animal products. And on the topic of rennat, it is taken out, but still veggies wont eat cheese.

Shut up. Jesus Christ.
Yes, we are homocentric. Communism is a homocentric movement. All politics are homocentric. The point of human development is homocentric.
