@RustyCrab @deprecated_ii @skylar low trust society. No one is able to put themselves forward in the name of communal benefit because there is no meaningful community to sacrifice for. -

@bot @ai @hidden @mia Remember most big herbivores are eating large quantities of Mechanically Reclaimed Meat, which is a primary transmission vector for the prion diseases that cause brain damage in humans, among other illnesses. The animal product industrial complex is more evil & hates you more than you could ever know. Even "cruelty free" or "free range" animals are probably fed shit you would not consider eating if you'd gone two weeks without food. Reclaimed meat is also disproportionately likely to contain the chemical filth an animal has consumed, because it's skeletal muscle, tendons, and organs.
Remember to always source your meat from hunters, home farmers & responsible butchers you trust and will prove their sources, or the industrial complex will make you into a meat clown. -

@bot @ai @hidden @mia They do, all fish that participate to any extent in filter feeding (way more than you realize) are active eaters of marine snow. Waste is a valuable ecological resource and everything that is capable of making use of it does so to the maximum extent. For example a great many mammals will eat their mother's poo in order to develop a coherent gut biome to enable digestion.
Crustaceous bottom feeding is not eating filth anymore than any other animal. They're primarily herbivores. The bulk of their diet is algae; plants. All other foods are secondary resources for most of the crustaceans humans eat. Their consumption of decaying matter is supplemental, except for those crabs that live in the aphotic zone, who also subsist to a large part on chemophyta vent bacteria.
It's the animals that live in the range of sewerage outlets that are the actual disease spreaders, they're making repeated trips to bacterial colonies that break the filth down into edible components to graze. Just like cows graze on grass that does the same thing, but in a way that is not necessarily harmful to humans due to the substrate grass dwelling on not generally consisting of human bodily waste, just industrial waste & carcinogenic/hermaphrodizing agricultural chemicals.
By all means don't eat them, industrially farmed crustaceans are often treated extremely poorly in terms of dietary intake to cut costs and fished crustaceans are generally taken in numbers far too great to sustain and spend days and days living in unfiltered tanks that allow ammonia and other chemicals & bacteria to accrue in their flesh.
But when it comes to a home farm, like the yabbies I grow with vegitables and offcuts from meat, they're probably cleaner than any meat you'd buy at your local grocery despite looking ugly.
This is the true problem with industrially produced invertebrates as food: They will be fed noxious bullshit and accrue harmful chemicals like plastic and roundup in their tissues at slightly higher concentrations. It's a very good stance to refuse to eat bugs who's origin is not crystal clear. Just like every other animal or plant. -

@MisterRogersSnapped @ai @hidden @mia @bot in my opinion, if the animal cannot enthusiastically kick your ass (or at least defy you for a moral victory,) or play fetch, it's not edible. -

@MisterRogersSnapped @ai @hidden @mia @bot I grew up on cattlefarms. They get away with shit you would not believe. There's a reason I hunt every animal I eat, or know & trust the farmer personally enough that I would be comfortable with them babysitting my unconscious body during a Tier Eight Cultural Enrichment Event. -

@MisterRogersSnapped @ai @bot @hidden @mia I remember the owners of the farm managed to get a cow that had a literal rotting hole in its' belly sold as food. I didn't eat beef for 10 years. -

@MisterRogersSnapped @ai @hidden @mia @bot It wasn't every day, diseases were normal, this animal looked like if it breathed too hard its abdominal wall would split and everything come falling out. -

@MisterRogersSnapped @ai @hidden @mia @bot Right on, never went to an auction. I was helping Granddad in his metal shop as a job, rather than working the farm. -

@parker @parker I don't know if this is relevant to the instance, but I saw this and figured I might ping you to save some potential effort, just in case. -

@bot @marine @hidden @APEX @allison @Owl @professorpowerbottom I think I have a pretty exhaustive answer for this:
The global hyper-industrial economy,
the interest in insidious business practices dependent on privacy violation,
the disinterest in building readily repaired products in order to better society
the distortion of the expectation of what life is: refocusing it on the ability to consume,
the explicit interest in eliminating cultural and religious rules to provide more custom for immoral industries like pornography,
the slow death of the Master-&-Apprentice relationship that previously allowed measurable meaning & experience to the lives of young people,
the targeted extinction of the self-sustaining community,
the consequences of shareholder dividend maximization on corporate action,
the (antithetical-to-life,) monopolization interests that defy the archaic diverse & renewable business interests of self-sustaining communities who depend only on limited trade; cultural items, luxuries and light metals.
A corporation can be made to conform to these things, principally by looking at the gentry-managed workshops that were once crewed by the freemen of an estate in return for financial compensation rather than land rights, and attempting to replicate them with consideration for the modern situation (like through protectionism.)
IIRC Henry Ford did a lot of this sort of thing, but I'm not *especially* familiar with him, except that his efforts to better the lives of his workers was sabotaged by the Dodge car company.
They've become predatory on populations as a consequence of industrialism & the shift from needing local workmen who are healthy and produce healthy offspring capable of working, to being able to import the chaff of other regions and essentially work them to death in unlimited supply as eternal renters, whilst actively defenestrating culture. Previously I think it was not the majority, but the minority who were able to do this due to the inherent requirement of laborers to be highly skilled in order to produce quality and consistent products, and almost all of them existed in cities that essentially trapped the skills-deprived refuse of society and killed them with plague. -

@Owl @marine @hidden @allison @bot @professorpowerbottom I fundamentally believe copyrights should be thrown in the bin, and all things should be public domain. I do not believe even books should be protected from being written out by hand or photocopied and sold. I am an absolute abolitionist of copyright. -

@Leyonhjelm @marine @hidden @allison @Owl @bot @professorpowerbottom Nothing but individual, distinct, physical items and territories can be owned in any way but metaphorically.
I do think it's correct to, if you're selling a reproduction of art, to adequately describe it as a reproduction & credit the original author, though. But that's because I value the history and evolution of culture and would like it to be accurately documented, not because I particularly feel for whoever's work was reproduced.
The world is made better by more people learning to reproduce art, because this way it is filled with beauty. When the world is filled with reproduced educational material, it uplifts all people to a higher standard and enables yet more evolution and innovation. Especially when what is reproduced is native to a people and culture, or stolen from outsiders & naturalized to facilitate your superseding them while retaining your distinctness.
Besides, art turned to shit when it ceased to be produced out of sheer passion or patronage.
