@Son_of_Space As long as ppl control the WRITTEN "parameters" of how animal exploitation is euphemized (humane), then the continuously-expanding obscene ACTS requiring animals' pain, violation, fear, & death, is continuously acceptable to ppl.

The restraints are perversely called "cradles":

We excuse to ourselves the violence that we lack even the integrity to watch.
We rationalise eternal, needless massacres yet lack the courage to imagine the suffering endured by our victims. Yet we still have the gall to consider ourselves ethical.

[Graham Ⓐ 🏴 Ⓥ Use ALT @Son_of_Space]

Despite your lofty, sanctimonious claims, your allegiance is not to ethics, not to moral decency, not to kindness nor to ‘humanity’, but to conformism in the name of your own insatiable appetite for a momentary taste sensation.

Those who profit from our unforgivable violent abuse spend inordinate amounts of money to de-incentivise you from thinking critically, ethically & empathically. In servile, unthinking, callous, self serving conformism, you obey.

This is what happens when animals are treated as commodities rather than individuals with their own lives and feelings. When they become sick or unprofitable, they’re discarded instead of cared for. 💔

Animals are not disposable. Choose vegan and reject systems that treats their lives as products. 🌱✊

Look at this footage. Rows of ewes locked in a milking parlour, machines attached to their udders. 🐑

Sheep don't make milk for us. They make it for their lambs, and only after giving birth. So dairy farms keep ewes in a constant cycle of pregnancy and lactation. Their lambs are taken away early so the milk can be sold, and the males, who have no value to the industry, are sent to slaughter at just weeks old.

The ewes themselves are usually killed after a few years of this, though sheep can live well over a decade.
Every piece of feta, pecorino or roquefort is the end of that story.

You don't need it. Delicious plant-based cheeses exist for every one of them, and every meal you choose is a vote for the world you want.

Share this to show people where their cheese comes from. 💚

@himejogal The very privileged and stupid take is you being so privileged and comfortable that you sit back and feel entitled to violate the bodies of the most vulnerable members of our society, and so stupid you make up the most ridiculous "arguments" to keep doing so.

Humans do horrible shit to animals 👺

Humans allow other humans to do horrible shit to animals.

Don’t be such a human.

#StopTheTorture #LiveVegan take no part in abuse ✌️

Here is a clear list of the main forms of animal suffering associated with recreational angling, backed by what research and practice show:

1Physical injury from the hook itself: Every catch causes at least a hook wound, and fish can sustain further damage; scientists agree that fish have pain receptors, although opinions differ on whether they consciously experience pain. Regardless of that debate: injuries and damage can compromise the fish's welfare and even lead to death.

2Pain and stress response: Dr. Lynne Sneddon demonstrated in 2002 that rainbow trout have nociceptors, and later extended this to many other fish species; in 2021 she concluded that science has now definitively shown that fish suffer pain. Research from Wageningen also shows that caught fish sometimes remain conscious for up to two hours after capture, even though they no longer move and appear dead, stress can suppress the response without removing the pain.

3Exhaustion and oxygen deprivation: during the fight phase "Playing" a fish (tiring it out before reeling it in) causes prolonged physiological stress and oxygen deficiency in the muscles.

4Suffocation and damage from being out of water: Fish are not adapted to breathe air; every second out of water (for a photo, to remove the hook) is functional suffocation, often accompanied by damage to the mucous layer and scales that leaves them vulnerable to infection afterward.

5Mortality after release ("catch and release"): Despite the idea that releasing fish is animal-friendly, some still die from the stress, oxygen debt, or infections sustained, often unnoticed, far from the angler.

6Collateral damage to other animals: Fishing lines and hooks left behind by anglers entangle and injure birds, otters, and other animals, sometimes fatally, as has also been explicitly noted in parliamentary documents concerning incidents with abandoned fishing tackle.

7Use of live bait: Worms and maggots are threaded live onto the hook, a practice rarely included in the welfare debate but which nonetheless constitutes animal suffering.

8Storage in keepnets: Caught fish are sometimes kept for hours in a confining keepnet before being released or taken home, causing additional stress and oxygen deprivation.
