I’m sure there’s a turkey furry out there with a vore fetish.

A lot of plants don’t want to be eaten either. Tough shit, I am hungry.

Plants have feelings too
No, they do not. There is no serious study to suggest that they do. Plants do not have a brain or central nervous system. At most, they respond to stimuli. If you really care that much about the welfare of plants, you should go vegan, since many more plants “die” for animal feeding.
Do you feel bad while mowing your lawn? And would you rather rescue a potted plant than a dog from a burning house? Is docking pig tails the same as branch trimming to you? Question upon question…Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 1 hour ago
What part of “Tough shit, I am hungry” made you think I care about the desires of the plant?

Plants communicate.
Those tears you shed when cutting onions is because of a defence mechanism of the onion, the scent you smell when cutting grass is another.
We also know that fungi and trees communicate with eachother as well. They even help eachother gain nutrients.

Wanna guess how many plants are wasted to feed animals, only for humans to eat them?
Artemis_Mystique@lemmy.ml 55 minutes ago
Plants that humans wouldnt be able to digest efficiently anyway, unlesss you are talking about the more bourgeois meats

Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten. Plants don’t want to be eaten.

fun fact: we kill between 1 and 3 TRILLION animals a year for food and textiles.
Wait, that’s not a fun fact!

Some do, actually. Most plants that taste good basically rely on being eaten as part of their reproductive cycle.
Gladaed@feddit.org 45 minutes ago
In particular cultivars. So do pigs.

Mostly berries sure but we eat a lot more plants than that.

If I could photosynthesize and fix my own atmospheric nitrogen, I happily would.

My neighbor tried to raise some turkeys for Christmas. Those were bred to grow really quickly but his timing was off. They have to be slaughtered within a small window before they get too fat and their hearts give out. He had to do an early Christmas.

That’s a pretty miserable existence for turkeys
markovs_gun@lemmy.world 9 hours ago
A lot of people live this way too. They just keep working and getting fatter until they die of a heart attack at 60

It’s pretty common for animals in the meat industry. A broiler chicken goes from hatching to supermarket in 6 weeks. That’s what’s being called efficiency these days.

Don’t know about the small window thing. We had turkeys for a while, but to be fair it was more about domestic animals than food source. Those things would get huge. I remember once some friends were coming to visit at night and seeing them on the roof got scared and ran off.

You’re supposed to change their feed when they get to the desired size.

I want to be eaten. Nobody’s doing anything about that.

If they don’t want to be eaten all they have to do is say it.

If Turkeys dont want to be eaten, why are they made out of food?
AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 10 hours ago
They do, in their own way.

Yo! Grey wolves = fascist, don’t repost that shit
Bababasti@feddit.org 2 hours ago
You‘re getting downvoted but I agree with you. The joke in the image is funny, but the presence of these grey wolve emojis suggests affiliation with the Grey Wolves which are fascist. No debating that, I don’t get the other comments here.

Wtf are you on about? They don’t get to decide what symbols belong to them. Ok 👌? 🐸 Fuck Nazi’s appropriating culture for themselves. Iirc the style of this comment indicates their membership in THE PACK AAYROOOO
blurb@sh.itjust.works 12 hours ago
Then we should all start hanging swastikas around Auschwitz, shouldn’t we? Because that symbol just means “prosperity and good luck”.
Fascist apologia at its fucking finest. The wolf emoji is so obviously used in a nationalistic far-right meaning here with all the Turkish flags. Get a clue.
YgestWefsid@lemmy.today 14 hours ago
Are not grey wolves a cultural symbol related to an old turkish tale? Does not look facist to me.
Gladaed@feddit.org 41 minutes ago
In the Turkish diaspora they are used as a dog whistle for Turkish nationalist. Good dog whistle too. You don’t hear it.

Has PETA ever asked lettuce if it gave consent to being eaten?
I mean, I’m all for a decreased consumption of meat, but PETA’s methods don’t work.

PETA = People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals
madjo@feddit.nl 1 hour ago
And PETA is soooooo ethical in their own treatment of animals. All of their shelters are no-kill shelters, right? Right?!
