Re: E A R T H L I N G S
What a happy thread. Let's recap: Someone posts common knowledge. Some people say "WTF, no 1 cares!" Other people say "STFU, u r jerks!" More people say "OMG, no im not!" And people say "LOL, u totally r" Hurray! Let's contribute! Animals kill other animals in brutal, visceral ways. When too many animals kill too many… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
You really have to take this documentary with a hand full of salt. I think they should have cut the music for one thing, it evokes sadness that can bias your own opinion, adding to that, they're only showing the worst of what goes on. It is sad that animals are subjected to cruelty though, would be better if people raised… -

JesseMoody: I don't think you understand. It's that sort of mentality that is the source of terrorism. Because people think that they can treat animals with such dissregard only because they think they are a lower life form, that we begin to think the same of eachother. The way a person treats an underling says a lot about… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
Mishra, you obviously didn't watch the documentary. THey never once told you not to eat meat or not to buy leather. The whole purpse was to make you aware of what was going on. They wanted you to be aware, grasp this whole concept of "just because it's an animal doesn't give me the right to exploit it" and to show a little… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
ok i take responsibility, can i go back to torturing animals? the thing is that they are a lesser life form. needless cruelty is never warranted, however, packing animals in dank dark places for profit is the result of capitalism. sure it may not be right, and the food tastes poorer than free range cattle or poultry, but… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
Such is the nature of the beast. I don't believe in, nor advocate cruelty to animals, however, whether or not you like to think so, we are animals ourselves. The human condition is not all that different than that of other animals. Looking at it from the lowest level, this is the way life was meant to be. Humans are at the… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
I haven't shared my perspective on the issue. I just think it's lame as hell you for to come in stating how you don't mind torturing cats (then you say you treat your animals amazingly, which is it?). And what does your first hand experience with imprisoned "potential terrorists" have to do with this issue? What does that… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
i haven't watched this particular documentary no, i have however seen several others dealing with the same. and it is not necessary to benefit humanity, but neither is electricity. we don't need it, but it sure makes things a lot better. not necessarily suffering mind you, but killing them, doing medical experiments,… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
[ QUOTE ] Propiganda? This is the most objective documentary I have ever seen. They arn't trying to convince not to eat meat, nor to go to anti animal testing riots. They are trying to inform you of what is going on, they are trying to get you to understand a concept. But yes, it is a very good film, and it is very… -
Re: E A R T H L I N G S
Well, I can't really finish the movie. It's a bit too much of a shocker for me. Always knew this sort of thing went on, just never saw it. And definitely never experienced it. I'm an animal lover, and a meat eater. I actually saw most of this movie as, "Humans eat meat and wear their skin as clothing. Here's how we make it…
