I'm with Bauglir on this one.  I can't stand it when people refuse to digest and acknowledge basic truths about their lives.  If you know you couldn't accept it, then you should find a way to change, not ignore it.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

I still wonder why are you so put off by slaughterhouses. You should see Russian hospitals, now that's unsanitary.

It's not so much about being unsanitary, more the cruelty involved.
Cattle live their entire lives as meat as opposed to living creatures, whereas humans spend as little time in hospitals as they can manage.

Cattle are meat. Living meat, but meat.
The only criticism I have of cattle is that we need to kill more of them and bring their population down, but that can't happen until Murrica changes their staple food from meat to something else. It could probably still be meat, even beef to poultry would be better.

Most people on Earth live their entire lives as wage slaves of huge corporations in tiny concrete cubicles in pollution-choked cities. And if you want cruelty, just wait until a revolution/war/regime change breaks out.

Unlikely, our overlords know very well what they're doing.

There is currently a minor problem in that the veteran demons fighting in the corpse factory have failed to die in the 2 year battle and have become legendary unkillable gods of war. I may have misjudged this possible outcome.

I find THAT unlikely.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Neither of those points are applicable in the slightest.
I will grant you that people who willingly submit to being wage slaves are little more than cattle, but they still benefit from their role. And war is cruelty done by people to other people, both sides suffer and have the opportunity to retaliate.

It's fitting that these sentiments appear in the thread del terror.

But they get way worse health care (at least in America).

Anyway, no, I eat meat all the time. It is delicious. If you haven't tried it for some reason, I highly endorse steak tartare.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

My vegetable stir fry is much more delicious than any steak ever could be.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Bah. You'll never top raw meat + raw egg + raw onion. NEVER!

Okay that's probably not actually true, but it is awfully delicious. Easily the best train to Salmonella Town.
