CMV: I am a meat eater.

I understand there are strong arguments to be made for going vegetarian, or even vegan. I'd love to have them expressed to me through this format. As of now I'm a rather ignorant consumer of meat. Most of my meat is store bought, and I am unsure of where it comes from. I understand it's popular opinion to take issue with the ethical implications of things like factory farming, but again, I have little to no exposure to such arguments or reasonings.

My reasoning: It's been something I've consumed far as long as I can remember. I am also unaware of the adverse effects it has, in terms of suffering and the environment.

If you are able of convincing me to become vegetarian, I will award you a delta.

1. First of all, ALL necessary nutrients needed to be healthy and survive can be found somewhere in plant form, some in the form of supplements. 

2. Meat is not only unnecessary for healthy living, but consumption can lead to higher risk of disease. There is a lot of evidence that red meat leads to a higher risk of bowel cancer for example. Good Netflix documentary to watch is “what the health”, full of the health side effects from meat consumption.

3. Animals are a lot more intelligent than most people think. Sciencey people have found that pigs and cows have similar intelligence levels as dogs. Factory farms lock these animals up their entire lives, no room to move, forcibly impregnate them and rip their offspring away from them as soon as they are born. They are hit and shocked with electricity to move them around . Their entire life, from birth to death is misery. And when thy are killed, it’s not always instant, sometimes they are left to bleed out to death, it’s not pretty. Watch some videos on YouTube of factory farms in action. And if you haven’t seen Okja on Netflix give that a watch. 

4. There are around 70 billion animals currently imprisoned in factory farms today, that’s 10 animals for every human. The methane and CO2 produced by these animals and the processes use to farm them, contribute more than all the cars, airplanes and trucks we use. That has a huge impact on global warming which is another thing altogether. (If you want to help unfuck the world a little extra visit beanunfucker.com)

5. Sure meat tastes great, but is it really worth the suffering? Imagine if animals could talk, some pig would get up on stage one day and give a speech.. “I have a dream..” but they are voiceless and defenceless so activists have speak for them, but activists have a bad image (created by the meat industry’s propaganda) so people rarely listen. Show some compassion and make this change. Other people will take you as an example and maybe you can change other peoples minds, get them to convert too. 

What ever you decide to do, have a nice life.
