That's a crosspost from the China thread (now Taiwan Number 1).

If there any place on this Earth that I could believe has a Squirrel Murder Company, it's China. The perfect combination of capitalist greed and complete disregard for all forms of animal life.

China understands too well that human beings are animals as well.

On my school bus home, they would ship live chicks to some company along the way and put them on the roof racks.
You would get them scared shitless chirping like hell drowning out us talking and the normal bus sounds.

That's one hosed up Coors light advertisement.

Hello, Squirrel Murder Company? Yeah I need a replacement squirrel for the one I just got. No, it wasn't dead when it arrived. It committed suicide.

How broken do you have to be to be okay with personally drowning a turtle in a plastic bag? Buying it because you want to see an animal suffer is almost better than not even computing that what you're doing is bad.

That thing was stamped out in a factory too, somewhere in china there is a machine specifically for sealing turtles in bubbles.

Turtles aren't amphibians the way frogs are, how are they not dead before they even leave the factory?

Somewhere in china there's facility dedicated to mass breeding baby turtles specifically to suffocate, die and be thrown out shortly after purchase. No other reason for existing.

Kinda like how our overlords view us.

Where male chicks are instantly mulched up after coming out of the egg.

If I saw that on a market somewhere I'd buy them all and try to set them free.





And then they would still die in like a week because they're probably all hosed up from getting stuffed in a small plastic bag.

realistically the only thing that can stop this is forceful direct action to destroy the entire supply chain that enables this cruelty

even stealing the turtles doesn't stop them from breeding and sealing up more

Imagine the stress it goes through sitting in your pocket bouncing up and down as you walk; dangling from the steering wheel when you’re driving; being dropped on the pavement or counter with the keys; going from the absolute darkness of your pocket to bright sunlight. All without getting to gently caress.

It living might actually be worse since it’s still going to die of hunger or asphyxiation, just after a lifetime of hell instead of right away.

Also remember that large parts of China are 100% fine with killing millions of sharks for their fins to make soup.

No, they don't use the whole shark, they slice the fin off and toss them in the water to die.

I believe NBA star Yao Ming started a campaign to stop this practice. Allegedly a lot of people didn't know the sharks were killed in this process. Last I read it didn't really cause the practice to lose any steam.

Yeah lol this is why you don't try to rescue them by buying.

This lesson has already been learned. Some animal rights group started buying up chinese dogs that were meant for dog meat and rescuing them. All it did was make the dog meat folks in the area intentionally start bringing way more tortured dogs since the animal rights group was essentially a new bulk purchaser.

If you want to set them free don't buy them. Steal them instead, that's a loss to the operation.
