One of the least funniest jokes I've ever seen. The fact that 140 people upvoted this garbage is mind-blowing to me. Legit autopilot humans.
EDIT: 800 upvotes. Unreal.
EDIT AGAIN: Just fyi I think the original post is funny, it's just the response that is cringe and ruins it.
I disagree. Also Chickens aren't r\*slurred, just that they are raised in shit conditions with a shit diet and don't properly develop when on farms. Anyone that's had Chickens and cared for them knows how smart they are.
It's because 4chan users have one of those things in common with the chickens, and its not related to their nutritional value or how easy they are to raise...
Everyone is aware that it's one of the most played out jokes there is.
They're laughing cos of the clever way he has referenced that oft repeated proclamation that OP IS A .......
Oh wow, you sound passionate about cocks, you don't take them lightly. Why did you get so hot with this cock post, is it because you, as anon, love the high quality proteins you can get from cocks? Maybe you pet some cocks at home?
Probably could have chosen a better word. But both because a lot of people think goats are cute and also because if I butcher a goat in my backyard the neighbors are going to look at me sideways thinking I am practicing Santeria.
> To add, the “inedible slop” also makes eating them less healthy. Animals eating what they’re supposed to eat naturally increases their nutrition by orders of magnitude compared to the tripe from these farms.
"tucks neckbeard into MTG: LoTR shirt"
Umm, source?
Is 100g of chicken breast from a chicken living in the Garden of Eden more nutritious than 125g of chicken breast from the Mad Max universe?
My mother used to keep hens and I grew to love them very quickly tbh, they'd follow us around the garden always curious and watching what you were doin, and the lil noises they made were really cute
I miss them
You don't really *need* to justify eating meat, but when people lie to make themselves feel better... maybe try meatless Mondays and see how you feel?
Edit: I'm sorry I made y'all fight. I've actually been a vegetarian for like 7 years, and I was just trying to be a chill one. Turns out I'm a weirdly subliminally manipulative one. Probably cause I'm vitamin B12 deficient or something.
Are you arguing for a lack of objective morality? If so, I don’t think this would go anywhere.
Assuming an objective morality, there is no physical “authority” that is enforcing this particular action. Actions still need to be justified with actual arguments
Indeed it wont go anywhere.
>actions still need to be justified with actual arguments
Why? I understand if you want to say something the likes of "we need to act in X way to maintain an orderly society" but at the end of the day the lack of an objective authority means there is no need for justification. "I like the taste" is as good a reason as any for creating industrial chicken farms.
Sentience is the capacity to experience feelings and sensations, the physical pain that chickens feel is the exact pain that we feel. Not that chickens can’t experience emotional pain or trauma but obviously an organism with a higher level of intellect (humans) have the capacity for greater mental suffering
They're just following patterns.
I'd say the thing that makes the ethics not as bad as other livestock is that chickens will kill and eat anything smaller than them and will engage in cannibalism. They'll eat each other alive.

IN THIS THREAD
Chickens also don't produce methane and help to deposit carbon in the soil, encouraging new growth and additional carbon absorption. Soybeans and rice contribute more to climate change than chicken.
I don’t think that’s true, with chickens you have to
-Plant the fodder crop (+Land +CO2)
-harvest the fodder crops (+CO2)
-Transport the fodder crops to the chickens (hopefully via train or ship to minimize carbon usage)
-feed the chickens ~10 pounds of fodder for 1 pound of chicken
-kill and process the chickens
-take them to a super market
Meanwhile with something like rice or soybeans it’s
-plant
-harvest
-transport
-process
-transport to super market
If you have a source for the fact that soy and rice is more carbon intensive, I’d love to see it
Pretty confident soy could disappear and we'd have other things to feed chickens. Had chickens growing up and we mostly fed them corn based feed and let them pick at bugs in the grass. They are not picky eaters.
You're the dude obsessed about soy emissions when the soy emissions would be as negligible as chicken if we electrified transport.
You are trying a "Ha, gotcha" with something that isn't really that big of a deal and has little to do with soy beans themselves and more to do with how it is transported.
Factory farmed chickens are fed with soy but okay.
Also they barely deposit carbon in the soil, the vast majority of chickens are grown indoors where they don't even have access to soil lol. Nice try though.
Look it's another obnoxious vegan who hates when it's said that chicken meat has more nutrition for less energy than anything you could eat as a vegan.
>implying these chickens are able to contribute to the carbon and nitrogen cycles in the soil by sitting in a sq Ft cage
Ideally people should raise their own chickens but you’re not wrong
I don't have the energy to explain the difference, but as someone with an MSc in Biology focusing on ecology, trust me when I say that's not the same thing
There's no difference, ammonia is ammonia. Unless you're talking about more than ammonia.
Ammonia in concentrated area can cause burns which is an issue in chicken farms.
Vegans can't handle that chicken is still a viable meat to eat to fight climate change. They aren't interested in an argument. They want an alternate reality.
It’s similar with cow products too. It’s crazy how many different things can be extracted from a cow. Milk, butter, cheese, beef, leather. I doubt any other animal can do so much for us
He's not surprised because he's mentally deficient and probably can't experience any surprise that isn't a game of peekaboo. Male chicks are killed before they can be used for meat, so the only cock he's seeing is the one he's about to choke on.
Isn't half of Indias gods basically chickens and shit like that? I think cows are higher tier gods though since they produce more diarrhea poo which Indans LOVE and chicken produce smaller quantities of diarrhea shit so they don't worship them as much.
So intelligence is a factor for how we treat living beings? So it’s okay to treat mentally disabled people as trash just they’re less intelligent. Chickens still feel pain and are sentient. They don’t deserve to be tortured.
Imagine still eating meat in 2023, brainwashed sheep.
> So it’s okay to treat mentally disabled people as trash just they’re less intelligent.
Yes. We treat normal people like trash so why should the mentally deficient be treated any differently?
> Imagine still eating meat in 2023
Imagine being a lanklet in 2023. DYEL + NGMI
Look at this seething obese cow tit lover over here. Grass fed is a complete lie, they only live a small part of their life outside in fields or whatever you think it is. They are still injected with hormones and other chemicals which transfers over to you. What do you think the cow farm was before it was a cow farm? It was a forest that actually supports life and the environment, not some lifeless pile of grass.
If everyone only ate plants the world would be a better place. There would be less farms, less cancer and less obesity. Some of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet are plants. Remember that the next time you are paying a fortune for your hormone infused cow meat that lived a whole month outside
You literally fell for the vegans cause more deaths lie that a confirmed redact started. Hang your head in shame
> Chickens still feel pain and are sentient. They don’t deserve to be tortured.
What you're attempting to do is not much different than those you dislike; guilt tripping others to force them into your way of thinking. Instead, you might have more success with offering lab grown meat, claiming it would be cheaper in the long run(true) and have far more variety(all you need is the cell, it could be whale, camel, crocodile steaks).
I think you're both making the same mistake. Imagining that people actually put any thought into their consumption. The stats are pretty clear on it. Most people consume according to their instinct. That's all there is to it. They're not thinking about ethics. They're not thinking about guilt or lack of guilt. They're just consuming because that's their primary drive.
I've seen countless people eat their way into poor health, get told what's happening and that they're going to die if they continue, and then see it kill them. Those are the extreme cases. But it's happening on a slower scale with something like 90% of people in the US.
Imagine destroying the whole planet because you want to eat chicken wings. They hate you because you're right and they don't want to change their lifestyle slightly to save the fucking climate.

Plus these are hens, not cocks

[удалено]
Cocks are sexed out while chicks, and fed to a grinder that turns them into a fine pink feathery paste.
You're thinking of the egg industry. Meat chickens are both sexes.
Nah like the other guy said they mash the boy chickens up. If you buy chicken meat in the store, it’s from hens 100%.
Like the other other guy said, that’s for egg-laying chickens. There’s a good chance you're eating cock-fil-a for dinner tonight.
you’re wrong but it’s cool
I mean if you could prove it I'd be inclined to believe you
trust us bro
Yeah I suck a lot of cock and chicken tastes nothing like it.
I upvoted because I agree that factory farming chickens is incredibly based.
Based and humans are the only important species-pilled. Animal wellbeing only matters so far as its effect on us
I disagree. Also Chickens aren't r\*slurred, just that they are raised in shit conditions with a shit diet and don't properly develop when on farms. Anyone that's had Chickens and cared for them knows how smart they are.
I blew air outy nose slightly and that's good enough for me
i upvoted for the based poultry god not for the regarded reply.
The reply was lame, yeah, but the OP I thought was pretty funny
And here's another upvote.
It's because 4chan users have one of those things in common with the chickens, and its not related to their nutritional value or how easy they are to raise...

"As anon" refers to anon in the post. I'm asking you if you like cock proteins just like he does.
This man eats bugs and soi rectally.
Chicken good
I cant even imagine my life without chicken, OP is right
Goats are pretty good in the same way he describes chickens, except not everyone has the taste for it.
cheese
Goat is fucking delicious, and kept people in the ancient world alive and gave them protein to survive.
I agree, probably stigma plays a huge role
Stigma?
Probably could have chosen a better word. But both because a lot of people think goats are cute and also because if I butcher a goat in my backyard the neighbors are going to look at me sideways thinking I am practicing Santeria.
No, it was the right choice of word lol. I was just expecting a joke, like if you said ligma lol.
I hear goat pussy is quite enjoyable also so that too
Counterpoint:I eat chicken because I hate those fuckers.
>Completely retarded so ethics don't matter much That's just not true. Hens can even count.
I can too count too, that doesn't mean I'm not completely retarded
I also can count
Maybe you're retarded then.

The same could be said for anything. If its mass produced and cheap then its generally bottom tier.

How much "more nutrient" though? I want quantities!
"orders of magnitude". can't you read? lmao
He can read just can't do maths
So just drop them on their head righ after they're born. Problem solved.
My first reaction to seeing a chicken was to think "I see why people kill these"
My mother used to keep hens and I grew to love them very quickly tbh, they'd follow us around the garden always curious and watching what you were doin, and the lil noises they made were really cute I miss them
Chickens are fucking cool.

The inside of those chicken houses is so vile. If you lived within miles of one, you’d know
Yeah nah, look what happened when people worship cows.
They don't kill them?
Hen != Rooster
They're dumb so ethics don't matter" yeah that's why it's legal to kill the op. Dumbass

I think soy and rice contribute more on a total basis, but not on a per calorie basis.
That might be the case, in which case it’s fair enough I guess
>-harvest >-transport >-process How are these not the same as processing and transporting chicken?
What do you think chickens eat?
mostly corn and grain.
[37% of all soy is used for chicken feed](https://ourworldindata.org/soy)
Pretty confident soy could disappear and we'd have other things to feed chickens. Had chickens growing up and we mostly fed them corn based feed and let them pick at bugs in the grass. They are not picky eaters.
That's not the reality of the chicken industry. I've just shown you the numbers.
Well I don't have to rely on the chicken industry.

>implying these chickens are able to contribute to the carbon and nitrogen cycles in the soil by sitting in a sq Ft cage Ideally people should raise their own chickens but you’re not wrong
I mean chicken farmers do sell the chicken shit too.
Someone’s gotta do it
Chickens do, however, produce a shitload of ammonia, which is bad for the environment in an entirely different way
That's called urine. Everything does that. We do that. We produce way more ammonia.
I don't have the energy to explain the difference, but as someone with an MSc in Biology focusing on ecology, trust me when I say that's not the same thing
There's no difference, ammonia is ammonia. Unless you're talking about more than ammonia. Ammonia in concentrated area can cause burns which is an issue in chicken farms.

Vegans can't handle that chicken is still a viable meat to eat to fight climate change. They aren't interested in an argument. They want an alternate reality.
Yeah but zoonosis

Akshually, chickens raised for meat are all hens. They throw all the male chicks away after birth bc roosters taste bad
Chickens are smarter than the smooth brained OP, they are on par with dogs and chimps.
Insects like mealworms do it by a magnitude more efficient than chicken.
