Mammals need to be pregnant to produce milk, so to get cow milk you have to impregnate a cow. That’s what they mean by rapist.

Most meat alternatives like impossible burgers are bullshit.
Ultra processed shit food.
There’s a lot of good vegan food that doesn’t pretend to be burgers, ribs or anything else besides what is it.
Plus who fucks an animal before you eat it?

They only need to be pregnant once. The calf milk is different than normal milk and can not be sold. The stuff we drink is what happens after a calf is born but you never stop milking so the cow stays productive. I think you need to revisit mamal biology. Once the process of Milk production is started milk will be produced in most mammals till the long term cessation of mamary tisssue stimulation.

Even if what you said was true (spoilers: it’s not and you’re making shit up, most dairy cows are impregnated once a year) your argument is that it’s ok because we only rape and kill the cows calf shortly after birth once.
It’s fine that you have shitty opinions, but stop spreading misinformation to support them. And definitely stop doing it while using big words to smugly pretend you’re smarter than other people.

most calves are brought to full weight before slaughter
Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Im sorry, but what kind of mammal biology are you talking about that says that two different types of milk come from the same animal?
Also, milk production usually does go down somewhat over time and sometimes even does cease, and it’s different for every individual, which makes it less predictable and less profitable to just impregnate a cow once. This is why dairy farmers almost always try to impregnate their cows yearly. Here’s one source, there’s plenty more coming up if you look it up on a search engine though www.rspca.org.uk/adviceandwelfare/farm/…/farming

Imagine having access to the entire repository of human knowledge at your fingertips and being this ignorant.
Beaver@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
Nope that’s not how it works at all. They keep reimpregnanting the mother and then they take the calf away for slaughter while the mother cries for her child for months on end.

And? My point still stands, a cow that hasn’t been impregnated will not produce milk. Is only doing it once supposed to make it better?
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’ve never had to impregnate a cow.
Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Think about dairy what you will, but ‘I didn’t do it, I paid someone else to do it’ is never a very solid argument in a debate on ethics.
VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world 1 week ago
only farmers pay for artificial insemination.
VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world 1 week ago
it’s not rape, it’s a veterinary procedure called artificial insemination and it’s safer than letting a bull mount them.
Beaver@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
Lmao it doesn’t matter how you sugarcoat it. It is rape nonetheless.

Everyone eating dairy.
Cows are mammals. They produce milk for their calves, its not something that cows just naturally produce. So the dairy industry only exists from repeated forcible impregnation.

Everyone who drinks milk is funding the repeated rape of cows, to be more specific.

Isn’t the dairy industry heavily subsidized so would anyone paying taxes be doing that too?
Do you pay taxes?

It’s like if you pay a hitman to do some murders for you. Are you a murderer? I guess not technically, but ‘conspirator to commit murder’ doesn’t have the same ring to it. Thus we just opt for rapist, since you support an industry that annually rapes cows and kills their calves so that you can enjoy a tall glass of cow juice.
It’s ok if that’s what you want to do. No judgement here.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I pay taxes so am I responsible for the murders and wars my government commits?
VictoriaAScharleau@lemmy.world 1 week ago
buying a product from a shelf is nothing like hiring a hitman.

How the fuck did you think milk was produced? This is literally grade school biology. Farmers rape cows for their milk, and you pay them for the privilege.
cm0002@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I think you seriously underestimate how much non-human raping goes on in the animal world. Many species have dicks that have evolved specifically to facilitate rape.

Impossible burgers cooked right on the skillet are pretty damn good, imo. And easy. I’m no vegetarian but we keep them in our weeknight rotation.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
That’s fine, just remember they’re junk food and not the health food people seem to think they are.
5wim@slrpnk.net 1 week ago
They have more protein, fiber, and iron than beef.
Red meat consumption has been shown to increase risks of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer, full stop.
I don’t know what a “health food” would be, but I would probably classify them as foods that are healthier alternatives to foods that are proven bad for your health. Which is what “Impossible” etc. are.
Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 1 week ago
Health food is anything that isn’t processed to hell and back.
Impossible is just alternative junk food. Like vapes are for cigarettes. Healthier still means crap. I’d probably just use mushrooms or tofu as a patty if I wanted an alternative to beef.

They’re not really a junk food. They’re not as healthy as eating straight-up vegetables, but they’re definitely not junk food.

Vegans need to downvote anyone that disagrees when them is proof their ideas cannot stand scrutiny. They do not relish in a debate of in any capacity. They don’t even have original ideas, it’s the same couple talking points because it’s ideology base. They call themselves converts but won’t accept it’s a religion.

Yea, but they also hate the lab grown stuff that’s being worked on which is so close to the real thing without all the killing and cruelty and stuff
iiGxC@slrpnk.net 1 week ago
Beyond burgers are literally right there lmao. You don’t need lab grown meat to stop supporting animal abuse, it’s a thinly veiled excuse to avoid having to change and grow as a person
cm0002@lemmy.world 1 week ago
2 things, 1) I can’t afford it as a regular item 2) Id say they’re maybe 70% there, there’s still a taste and texture issue. I personally don’t mind it and would happily switch over if it weren’t for #1
Vegans/Vegetarians will never get the vast majority of people out there to give up meat, best shot is that lab meat if they can get the cost equivalent to real meat.
iiGxC@slrpnk.net 1 week ago
Lab grown meat is gonna be even more expensive, and 70% is way more than enough there that it’s no excuse to support animal abuse
