Interesting tooth pick. Why is it there¿ why not stick it straight through the tip¿
I was wondering the same thing when he poked it in there!
Most chorizos are skewered, I think this was supposed to be rolled up like a burrito and eaten, then I should actually use the toothpick like a toothpick and clean out my teeth afterwards.
Is that made from creatures or their secretions?
Tortilla and salsa are from plants, the chorizo is mostly creature with a plant remainder.
Are you vegan yet or do you think theres a reason you could give to the creature in the kill box that would justify their death to them.

Do you know anything about the person you are talking to or are you just being rude for some other reason?
Your honor I killed them in cold blood but you’re being very rude right now calling me a murderer. Cows pigs chickens or whoevers flesh is in this image deserve to live. We can be just as healthy eating plants no one needs to die
You killed plants and the people growing your food absolutely kill animals that are pests. You are just less of a murderer and much more hypocritical by ypur logic.
People like ypu are an impediment to the progress you hope to achieve because instead of considering moving to a plant based diet you’re just being an insufferable jerk.
What reasoning do you offer the plants you kill?
I don’t value life in and of itself I value sentience, life is just a neat trick to duplciate dna, sentience is what is morally relevant. Plants have no nervous system or pain receptors, they have no mechanism to feel pain and no evolutionary reason to as they cant physically escape dangerous situations, plants respond reflexively to basic stimuli like light concentration and temperature the same way a thermostat “feels cold” and “acts to warm itself up” Even if you want to contend that plants can suffer, if you read Poore 2017 you will find that a vegan world would use 70% less cropland, this is because it is thermodynamically inefficient to filter your nutrients through someone elses body, so if you want to minimise plant deaths eat them directly https://doi.org/10.1007/s00709-020-01579-w
I value life itself.
Ranking the importance of species by sentience seems archaic.
Plants don’t feel pain In the same way humans feel pain, but that doesn’t mean they don’t feel pain.
Plants produce chemicals that suppress pain, plants send out chemical distress calls, and plants communicate.
Sloths, snails, and tortoises cannot “escape dangerous situations” and still feel pain. They may avoid pain automatically, as humans do, but those organisms are feeling and avoiding pain, not registering the pain without feeling it like your thermostat.
You’re killing organisms and consuming them to live. Me too. Plants and fungi too. they eat blood, meat, waste.
If you want to be vegan, I suggest living in India. I was vegan in India for one month and vegetarian for two without noticing because the food is so good.
If you really think that plants have feelings then you must pick one of the following: you shouldnt trim bushes without anesthetic because theyre alive just like my dog, or: this dog is just like a bush so no need for the anaesthic just cut them open.
You didnt respond to the other point which is that you being vegan would kill far far fewer plants, this is due to something called trophic energy loss, it is thermodynamically inefficient to filter your nutrients through someone elses body bc 90% of the calories are “lost” keeping that other creature alive
Do not cut your dog open to prove a false dichotomy.
What do you want to know about the efficiency of killing plants?
Calories are not “lost” by their ingestion and utility. You are here, having fun typing your answers because of the calories you have ingested and used.

you were wasting your breath. they had already admitted it.
hey look everyone, it’s one of those plants rights advocates; you know, the kind that you only ever hear from when someone mentions that the consumption of animals is cruel, violent, unnecessary, and immoral.
Nature’s rights legislation(“plants rights”) was passed in multiple countries without the intervention of someone “mentioning the consumption of animals.”

Im curious if you spend this much time and effort on positive education (e.g. vegan food banks) or if you prefer instigating arguments in unrelated discussions
Its a gore image its not unrelated. Posting this and saying its tasty is celebrating the death of the non-human animal whos flesh was stolen.
Please inform me:
How do you get your energy? Did you build your own wind turbines, or is part of it using fossil fuels? Which ISP are you using? Are they morally acceptable? Do you grow your own food, make your own tools, make your own clothes, and build your own home? I would love to hear about the device youre using, and how 0 of its resources harmed humans and any other life (be it extraction, manufacturing, etc). This includes all software as well. Is the country you reside in completely faultless, or do you inherently support them with taxes?
I may commend you, Walden.
Im questioning the hostility you bring, as it generally makes people more defensive. You never responded to my question about local vegan efforts (supplying food, distributing, educating, funding, etc), so I’ll assume all of your efforts are virtual (where I can guarantee at least one immoral act was performed to enable your “platform”)
I actually am curious of your journey to net 0 harm, but I have a feeling you havent gotten there. So keep on virtue signaling, I guess?
I dont expect the impossible from people or to live in caves, but eating someones flesh is a choice, vegan food is cheaper and healthier and all the reasons people give to eat flesh is self serving bullshit “its my tradition/culture” “I like the taste” “Its MY habits” ok what about the victims life what about their choices, what excuse would you accept if it were you in the killbox
Not discounting your point, it’s valid. It is cheaper, healthier, and 99+% of excuses are BS (barring excessive compounding of food allergies). Buuuuut it feels hypocritical if you support companies that leverage child/prison/slave labor because “it’s impossible not to”; Aren’t a bunch of Amish communities (almost) self sufficient? If not, I’m confident they at least support fewer morally grey companies than us. So why do you get to decide where the line is drawn?
I respect your passion, and agree with your mission. Just feels like youre going about it aggressively.
Probably a poor analogy, but would you rather join a religion that teaches “Hey, we should respect each other, and here’s how”, or “If you dont, eternal punishment. Shame during your lifetime. Eternal woe”
Fundamentally, it could be the same religion with different evangelists. You feel like the latter.
