Faecal Encephalopathy
Variations include Cranio-Rectal Syndrome and Cranial Rectosis, presumably for when the patient doesn’t have shit for brains but merely has his head up his ass.
I have no problem with meat eating. In fact, I have slaughtered chickens, pigs, a lamb, and watched a cow get cut.I do have a problem with the fact that the consumer has no idea where those things wrapped in cellophane at the grocer came from. Or even what protocols existed to ensure that it is even remotely safe.
A slaughter house is inspected by a USDA official once every 8 years. The USDA has a dual purpose: to promote and sell meat, and to ensure that that meat is safe. Often those goals run against one another and the consumer suffers.I’m pro-meat consumption
. I just wish consumers had more information or options at the supermarket so that they could make informed decisions about the best purchase. Unfortunately, the meat industry has totally warped any sense of free-market economy and again, the consumer suffers. And so you ask: Are tigers immoral?Tigers don’t have a concept of morality anymore than a human infant does. I’d be willing to excuse human immorality if the human is willing to admit that such things as standards, morality, and the law are meaningless and each human should be allowed to do what it wants, when it wants, in accordance with instinct. Non-human animals will often rape and murder in order to reproduce, for some reason, this seems to be a criminal offense in human society.
and I say:
This arguement is a circle jerk. You have an either/or standard for morality. Either: excuse immorality if the human admits standards, morality, and laws are meaningless…Or: not excuse immorality if the human admits standards, morality, and law do have meaning.
Only a sociopath would argue that everything is meaning less so we will address the other. For you information, there is nothing in human society’s standards, morality, or laws that prohibit eating animals. On the contrary, eating animals has been an integral part of human society ever since pre-history. Not that I’m religious but even Jesus ate fish. And argueably, religion has a lot to do with morality in the context of society. So your arguement that eating animals is immoral is specious.
Do you think that a consumption-based for-profit economy is a sustainable model? I mean, resources aren’t unlimited; if we allow unrestricted hoarding and privatization of the means and materials of production, it only causes their cost to go up. It concentrates wealth in the hands of those that have the capital. And it is only to grow more disparate until we run out of resources; then we have a collapse. So we can have a proletarian revolution now and switch to a democratically-planned, just economy, or we can wait until we’re in a crisis state when we’re forced in to it. The “problems” with communism that have been pointed out (which are really problems with socialism, which, as defined the Manifesto, is a transitional stage of state control as we realign from a private, profit-based model to a communally-owned planned economy. There are varying degrees of statism within socialism, and Stalinism represents the worst version of those. Democratic socialism, on the other hand, with a forward look to transitioning to a fully communist form of government, makes a lot of sense when you really look at what it’s trying to accomplish — the people retain control of the means and materials of production, and the people democratically decide how best to use resources within the society. This frees man up from the necessity of struggle for basic goods, like homes, food, etc. and allows him to focus on things that will advance the cause of all humanity, such as medical or scientific research, cultural projects like art or literature, etc.The great lie of US education is that this represents totalitarianism. That’s just plain wrong. The “freedom” enjoyed under capitalism only exists if you can pay for it, and if you don’t have the money, good luck actually making it. It is in no one powerful’s interest to share wealth under a capitalist regime.
