Whatever

Bridezilla Asks Guests $1,500 Each, And It Ends So Badly That Even Christine Teigen Responds

I would really like to contribute higher quality posts but it's terribly inconvenient for me to do that on a budget. I'm sure you'll all agree that I'm entitled to at least minimal funding from all Bored Panda members. Having put a great deal of thought into it I came to a sum of a very affordable $2,572.00 per member. And please, cash or cashier's checks only made out in my name and posted via certified mail no later than the day after tomorrow. Don't let me down folks... you know I deserve it.

Whatever

Well not whatever you want, but you know what I mean

Because they also share preachy vegan propaganda (though it's usually in the form of some dickhead in the comments), and because free speech exists, and you're allowed to share whatever you want on this site.

A) if we killed *less* animals, in a humane fashion, I don't see any immorality, I just see nature B), if you look through the comments, you'll see there's a lot of reasons why eating meat is a necessary thing C), if you don't think of eating meat as cruel (which you shouldn't), then being a vegan isn't any less cruel D), it's 2018 and you're still amazed by people being twats?

Also, @anarkzie, I don't know what you're talking about with slave labour, personally I recognise both industries are accountable for these things, but yes, land is taken up for cattle, and because of it there's far less necessity for the huge swathes of agricultural land. Both take up land, and, provided the meat industry becomes far more humane, and our diet becomes far less wasteful, an omnivorous diet is the balanced, far more environmentally friendly, safer option. Plus, it would mean leaving off on self-righteously trying to imply that meat-eating as a diet is in some way unethical, or damaging to animal populations, saving an awful lot of time, effort, self respect, and the sanity of the internet community at large

Not really hating. Just picking out flaws, and pointing out problems.

Actually, if you look at how predator vs prey works, this is an excellent argument, if a herbivore has no natural predator (and make no mistake going vegan would not encourage any new predators for cows et al), or less of one, its population shoots up, causing overgrazing in its habitat, causing less food and vegetation, which, since the population isn't getting so much of a decrease from predators any more, expands over time, and since we wouldn't be feeding them as much, since we wouldn't get anything out of it, and would be taking up more vegetation and land for expanded farmland (after all you'd have to have a lot of crop variety to accommodate everyone), we'd then contribute to this, causing a net damage to the species' habitat, and for them to become much rarer, and, since we'd probably stop nature filling in with a new predator (cities aren't going to disappear to accommodate) possibly extinct. But sure, starvation and extinction's much better than the natural predator system.

Not surprisingly........Vegans taste like chicken

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Ok, it's not just not cruelty free, it also has caused a lot more land to be taken up, and a lot more environmental damage, as agriculture has to expand to accommodate "superfoods" etc. (UGH), and you can argue that switching to something equally cruel is pointless, because it is. Also, you can't say live and let live and support the argument we should all go vegan

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Ok, firstly, if everybody goes vegan the meat industry stops, that's basic common sense, and secondly, the rabbits killed in the meat industry (which i assume you're referring to because frankly psychopath animal murdering farmers are a rather smaller minority than those with allergies) are killed for a reason, and it hardly makes the guy a jerk

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

So, because animals consume a lot of crops, you condemn ALL meat eating (which would include hunting for example, which involves killing animals who've usually lived off food they get for themselves, and happens in the wild anyway), but the way agriculture is ruining the land, and allowing much worse working conditions, even if not encouraging, to produce things like quinoa, which let's face it not a single gram of which is going to cows etc, is worth the price? Also, might I add, you can also have a humane meat industry, that provides for demand, the two aren't mutually exclusive, and might I finally add, COMPLETELY cutting out meat because of what the current, extremely bloated, inhumane meat industry is doing, including the meat producers, for example local farmers, who are practicing humane meat production, the same way it's been done for quite a while, in favour of agriculture that has decimated Borneo rainforests, for example, is one of the greatest overreactions I've ever seen

All true except for the death story, which appears to have been made up by courtiers of the time in order to ensure nobody would ever again take up his position, as they were trying to imply he was demonic. Which is fair enough, considering how royally he screwed up the Tsarina and her family

@ReggieKraken, feel free to be pissed of at people who fake allergies rather than just standing up and saying "I don't like this food" or "I'm on a diet", don't get pissed off at the people who literally will die from eating it

Well not whatever you want, but you know what I mean

No, because not being racist IS a cruelty free racial policy, whereas veganism is not a cruelty free diet, as we've all been discussing to death.

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Try being a pig or cow in a world where they've lost their natural predator, have shot up in population, overgrazed, lost their food sources, and have now wiped themselves out because some preachy vegans were assholes in internet comments and then try being a self-righteous idiot about it

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Oh sweetie, do attempt to at least imitate a reasonable manner when discussing this kind of thing.

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

@Mary Finelli. Wrong on both accounts. Firstly, in order to fully sustain yourself on a vegan diet, you have to have far more crop diversity, meaning far more individual fields, whereas, if we were far less wasteful, and ate, again, *less* meat, the meat industry would be far more efficient, and due to far less need for crop diversity, so would farming. Secondly, how many times, it's not unethical to kill animals for meat. It's what has happened in omnivorous and carnivorous species since the dawn of time. There are many humane methods of doing it, and without a natural predator, as previously discussed in these comments, herbivores start to overpopulate, since their population is far less limited, causing overgrazing, causing overall damage both to land, the planet as a whole, and to the herbivore. We are that natural predator, and we're a necessary part of the food chain. It's not immoral, it's a necessary part of nature, and without it, there's far more environmental damage.

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

@potato, the other animals we don't eat have natural predators, we killed off the few that cows had, and are now their only one

@Random Panda, finally somebody actually brings facts to this argument

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

I know, that's why I was pointing that out after you just said "are you deathly allergic to something? Sucks, but it's not exactly a valid argument"

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Finally, some sense

Someone Explained Why Veganism Is Not Cruelty Free, And It Might Make You Think Twice Before Going Vegan

Firstly, let's make one thing quite clear: the idea of killing an animal for meat is not immoral. The idea of killing more animals than is strictly necessary in an inhumane method is immoral, but hunting? That's not immoral, that's what every other omnivorous species in the world does. Secondly, if we didn't hunt, and didn't keep livestock, because remember, veganism involves no animal products whatsoever, then they lose their main predator. If you look at a predator-prey demographic, you'll see that when a 'prey' species hasn't got enough of a limiting predator, they shoot up in numbers, causing overgrazing in their habitat, causing a net damage to the local area. Thirdly, and this is very important to note: You can use less resources by eating LESS meat. If you dial down the amount of meat you're eating, and make sure you're eating free range, from animals that have had a decent life, you're being more moral, still cutting down on resources, and staying in keeping with natural order.

Teacher Refuses To Lend Student A Pen During Exam, So He Plans Brutal Revenge That Gets His Teacher Fired

I wished this story came out when i was in high school, woulda learn from this to go after my teachers too. The reason will be two years of straight racism and talking bad about my gang and exempting us from the lesson. Just cuz my gang got better results than my teacher's kins. Bought it up to the counselling teacher , she just brushed it off like dust eventho it wasn't the first time someone reported the teacher. Hoe i wish i stood my ground than keep quier and my head down..

Teacher Refuses To Lend Student A Pen During Exam, So He Plans Brutal Revenge That Gets His Teacher Fired

Hmm by being a knob - he exposed the truth about cheating scumbag, who humiliates students for making a simple mistake, we could all make and probably have, by overusing his position of power.. If the world had more knobs like that xD the would would be a better, less corrupt place, you know..

Teacher Refuses To Lend Student A Pen During Exam, So He Plans Brutal Revenge That Gets His Teacher Fired

I care about his revenge story. So your statement is false. Also, the author of this story is unlikely to read these comments, so you're evil negative comments are a waste of energy and only negatively impact those who read them. Go away, please.

Teacher Refuses To Lend Student A Pen During Exam, So He Plans Brutal Revenge That Gets His Teacher Fired

When's the last time you were in a class at a school? Half the students text, play games, sleep, or watch youtube during class. I've dozed in probably half a dozen classes during my undergrad years. For folks like myself who get very little out of lectures, attending class is just a chore required to avoid a poor grade. This whole thing wouldn't have happened if the school didn't make attendance mandatory.

Teacher Refuses To Lend Student A Pen During Exam, So He Plans Brutal Revenge That Gets His Teacher Fired

Or maybe he wasn't an asshole and instead singled out for some stupid petty reason by the teacher. While I have never done anything close to this to a teacher/superior (or anything harmful at all, really), I side with the student. The ultimate result was the exposure of a cheating bastard. That's good work in my book.
