Electric Bugaloo posted:I could spend the next hour and a half painstakingly putting together a sprawling effortpost of industry and academic sources to explain why but I'm smart enough to know that the thread would (hopefully) be miles away and it would do fuckall to change your mind regardless. It would be totally understandable if you didn't want to do this, but if you did put together a huge effortpost about factory farming I would be really interested in reading it. It's a subject where it's hard for a newcomer to separate fact from fiction, so I would love to read an informed analysis of it. edit: A Winner is Jew posted:I didn't even have to look to see what the reason was.

Gregg Abbot announced a thing, well series of things:quote:In a clear attempt to further distance the State of Texas from mainstream America, GOP Governor Greg Abbott has just unveiled what he would like to become nine new amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Among them are several that appear to be aimed at landmark and historic U.S. Supreme Court decisions, like last June's, which found bans on same-sex marriage unconstitutional. http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovemen...me_sex_marriage

Undifferentiated clusters of cells and proto-humans incapable of surviving on their own are more important than fully-formed, sentient human beings because religion or something.

The message that past or perceived promiscuity doesn't make a person different from anyone else, or make them incapable of wanting simple romantic intimacy, was a good one that the movie got through reasonably well. Honestly the topics of sexuality that it addressed are still ones that still need addressing at the cultural level. But yeah, Kevin Smith movies sat better with me as a teenager, rewatching a few of them was a little uncomfortable.

LeeMajors posted:They should. But they don't. If you buy into the idea that people are inherently sinful, things like poverty, abuse, and oppression are the result of poor choices, and the misery those thing bring is just punishment from the universe, then it makes sense to prioritize the lives of embryos over actual people. Proto-humans are nothings that have done nothing; they're just little blobs of potential who could possibly be really good, and leaving that possibility open is much more important than reducing the suffering of born-humans who are really only suffering because they chose to squander their own potential.
