Comment on YSK: US Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem publically bragged about killing her puppy
aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks agoi feel like you’re a tad misinformed. They are super cruel to the animals. They split families up, they kill animals when they’re still children. They castrate pigs without anaesthetic. They cut off the beaks of chickens so they don’t peck each other. How is that not cruel beyond cruel?

So because there are institutional scale cruelties like this, then it doesn’t matter that a person in a position high in the American government is bragging about her personal cruelty to animals? I am simply pointing out her failings in this regard and you are telling me what? It doesn’t matter what she did because there’s already a lot of cruelty out there?

I didn’t say it doesn’t matter. I was merely pointing out that cunts will be like “THAT POOR DOG” then go home and eat a cow steak who was also tortured.

That’s kind of the point of the article I linked to. Yeah, everyone is upset about Cricket, but the goat matters too.
aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
the goat definitely matters. S/he lived a life that was important to them. I wasn’t trying to minimise the goat’s life.

Personally I share your take, but you’re not helping the cause by insulting people.

I think insults can be justified if the other person is brain dead and you are still attacking the argument.
