My hope is that humanity as a whole moves towards having to worry about food and security less, and more towards prosperity. From all evidence I've seen, this will lead to more concern for how animals are treated. It's actually a good thing for people to be freed from day-to-day insecurity and fear.

error1 posted:I am a little concerned by the amount of goons that are perfectly ok with torturing and/or loving animals You should be, SA's had this odd super vocal minority that loves to come on and scream how much they want to eat dogs while watching videos of a mentally ill hillbilly torturing pigs over at TFR. They've always been here and sadly have been the one group that's stuck around. ED: I think this same group was responsible for 99% of the super racist, zero-comedy threads that popped up when the GBS rules were completely removed, so take of that what you will.

blowfish posted:e.g. the central pattern generators for any kind of periodic movement control etc were found by sawing cat skulls open and progressively cutting through the brain down to the stem till movements became less regular and than stopped Why do you know/care about this? Do you work in medicine? Which hospitals should we be avoiding? If you are already got a job dissecting lab animals I guess that explains why you've convinced yourself that animals are worthless. Sort of like how working at a slaughterhouse drains you of empathy the first week and you just become a mindless robot. I've been computer janitoring at a hospital for years and doctors are loving weird. So many god complexes, yet they don't understand the most basic retarded computer poo poo.

Though I think animal rights are good - though not high in importance - I know many liberals who, like with the Cecil the Lion thing, will flip out about it but then ignore their own government conducting strikes that murder tens of thousands of innocent people. How's that for priorities? These are the kind of people who support Hillary Clinton.

error1 posted:Why do you know/care about this? Do you work in medicine? Which hospitals should we be avoiding? no actually not, i work on insects and dabble in conservation but it's pretty cool to sit in on people who actually do mammal physiology and watching them look at some organ system, kinda like dissecting an old broken radio to see which part does what and which part broke i don't have to deal with dumb poo poo animal rights protestors whining about animal cruelty for most insects, though weirdly enough butterflies are an exception in that they provoke a "don't hurt him/her" reaction in idiots despite being just as dumb as the average house fly (maybe it's because animal rights idiots are stupid and actually only care about cute pretty fluffy/colourful animals until they get reminded that other animals are animals too) but in conservation work animal rights bullshit has spilled over from biomedical people issues to the point that when doing population genetics etc it's easier to get a license to kill loving everything than to take like a square millimetre of skin sample that grows back in a week and doesn't hurt the animal, so you just get a license to kill loving everything suck my woke dick fucked around with this message at 18:19 on Jan 9, 2016 |

For example, if I were a parent and my child negligently killed their hamster through a moment of carelessness, I would be less concerned about than if they killed their hamster through more serious negligence or, worse, enjoyment. This is an indicator of broader personality traits.

blowfish posted:(maybe it's because animal rights idiots are stupid and actually only care about cute pretty fluffy/colourful animals You might have if you think that people wouldn't be angered at someone needlessly torturing a raccoon or other ugly animal to death. People were loving furious at that chicken-torture video; enough so that the guy got arrested, and chickens are the ugliest loving things on the planet and the opposite of cute. 4chan went ballistic when those two Florida girls uploaded videos of them torturing a turtle to death; they doxxed them, notified their schools, and got them arrested. Turtles aren't cuddly. Congrats, you have less empathy than 4chan posters. blowfish posted:but you ran one over in your car, which is different because If you don't see the difference between torturing a dog or cat to get an erection and accidentally hitting one that darted in front of your car, you definitely have jenny jones fan fucked around with this message at 18:30 on Jan 9, 2016 |
