Couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

We are just morally consistently and apply that principle to monkeys, cows, pigs, and so on.
>>2588502>morallyI would happily eat a monkey if it tasted good. We are not the same.
>>2588506Then why not a human? What's the distinction?
>>2588493Because its funny to watch you all chimp out about it in response.
>>2588509Nta, I personally would but there's a key difference between us and other animals and it's sapiency. If an animal develops the capacity for sapiency then it absolutely should be treated as we treat other humans
>>2588502Well you would be murdering far more than that as the majority of the world's population would starve to death. The cultivation of animals used as sustenance is the reason why the world population has increased significantly over the past several centuries, as human beings became stronger due to the consumption of animal protein.
Another big proponent of eliminating animal protein as a dietary option is Bill Gates. I find it interesting when the objectives of the most greedy capitalists overlap with those of people that are supposed to be of a higher moral standard.
>>2588502 You're fine with the torture and abuse of the people harvesting your food
>>2588514>and it's sapiencyCompletely arbitrary category.
>>2588517You can feed far more people with the same amount of land if you grow crops on it rather than rearing animals. We've already discussed this.
You already need the additional crops to feed the animals, plus the energy to house them, the antibiotics to keep them from disease, the facilities to murder them, etc.
>>2588519No I'm not. What a bizarre straw man.
>>2588528And all of that amounts to absolutely nothing. As I've previously stated the majority of human beings need animal protein because they perform physical labor. It is such a selfish entitled mindset of someone who unknowingly is completely unwrapped in capitalism and it's excess.
>>2588532>proteinMay I introduce you to mushrooms, soya, beans, nuts, etc?
>>2588509cannibalism is a taboo in most cultures, yet meat eating is the norm.
>>2588529another closeted gay fascist - you dont say?
>>2588535No you don't need to because I consume mushrooms, nuts, and beans. Soy is unhealthy for a virile man of my stature.
>>2588544>virileCare to prove that claim?
>>2588551This is a blue board
>>2588559relax bro
you can still be vegan
Infighting on the left within one general on one website
It's so over for us…
>>2588576Obviously you can do physical labour and be vegan, don't be retarded
>>2588496And here I was thinking you were on about being on site. Not being able to handle those jobs on vegetables is more of a self report than anything.
I don't really understand why people want meat and cheese. It's just so disgusting for me.
just had cheese on toast. yum
>>2588035>any pedagogical strategy, practice, or method that improves the performance of the worst students will also improve the performance of the best studentsseems obviously false, once you know and understand something, when you have all the right answers, you cant get a better performance.
>cannot admit that some people simply aren’t smartthats simply false, everyone knows some people are better at certain things, and everyone recognize some people are better academically, but intelligence is a very large and not well understood beast and is not equivalent to academic performance
>>2588176>There are no issues here that other antifa groupings havent worked around 100s of times begore, im sure.These are literally novel issues. I get the seriousness, but if they get a bloody nose they post it to twitter and claim money from randos in fuckign Lincolnshire. Literally giving them martyrbait in order to get more popular/famous/rich.
>>2588891>and everyone recognize some people are better academically, but intelligence is a very large and not well understood beast and is not equivalent to academic performanceThen why put all our eggs in the basket of improving the test scores of those who aren't suited to academia when you could just let them do something they're good at? Why sacrifice them to the cult of schooling?
new thread time soon
>>2588941So what's the solution, anon? Sincerely how are you all going to deal with this nonsense?
They're out here gay-bashing. We're going places even less good in this country.
I do not understand the irrational love you britleftists have for Zultana
BBC News exists for 4 reasons:
>Promote the idea that neoliberal capitalism is the only "sensible" political position (whether that's socially progressive or socially reactionary neoliberalism just depends on the current climate)
>Promote Zionism & defend Israel
>Attack trans rights & protect TERFs/transphobia
>Promote and defend the Monarchy
Is there a timeframe for when the main committe for YourParty will be appointed? Or have I missed that?
>>2589665Was supposed to be elected by the end of January, the timeline and structures for the elections and nominations was supposed to be published yesterday but wasn't. Been radio silence from YP channels since conference.
Leadership seems to have been completely unprepared for some conference outcomes and no one knows what's going on behind the scenes atm so just have to wait until some announcement comes out
>>2589642I think a good left-wing campaign to launch would be demanding that (a) the license fee is abolished and the BBC is directly funded, and (b) the total shutdown of BBC news and current affairs content. It can still do documentaries etc, but the rest of them belong on the dole since (
at best) what they offer is a distillation of what the newspapers are saying.
>>2588987>new thread time soonNo. We shall just wallow here.
>>2589416If I knew I would be telling people to do it wouldn't??
>>2589611shes a lib that is good on Palestine so is Corbyn
>>2590036Fair enough.
A great situationist stunt would be to kidnap them and chuck them in the channel.
