Feeding chicken feces to cattle may be behind bird flu outbreak in US
Feeding chicken feces to cattle may be behind bird flu outbreak in US
Experts warn that lax regulations could also see the virus spread to US pig farms, with serious consequences for human health
They've been doing it for DECADES
AMERICAN COWS ARE MUNCHING AWAY AT BUCKETS OF CHICKEN SHIT RIGHT NOW
AND IT MADE THE NEW PLAGUE
WE FED THE COWS THE BIRD DOODOO
Here’s pigs being fed plastic
“Scientifically there's no issue,” he said. “In nature (pigs) are not very discriminating. They'll eat whatever they can.”
PiGs HAvE beEN EaTiNg wIlD PLasTIC fOR MiLLeNiA!!
Remember all those dinosaurs that subsisted off of microplastics
it's just natural to find plastics laying about
Dinosaurs became oil, oil becomes plastic, so dinosaurs are just plastic
The scary thing is, you just know they're feeding this same H5N1 infected bird shit to pigs as well.
this is an amazing opportunity for everyone to simply stop eating meat
every little thing we can do to limit the harm we do to our world is worth the toil, but realize cows are abused for more than just meat
Jesus christ. Why not just feed cows, y'know, food?
Because then Porky would make $0.0001 less per pound of beef sold
If US factory farming wasn't subsidized by taxpayers' money the industry wold operate at a loss. The last guy I talked about this said that as it stands, they only make approximately $50 per cow after the cost of feeding and killing them.
I can't find the article but I read one once that stated that farmers need to feed beef cattles something like 11 times the amount of calories than what they produce. That's land being used just to feed cows instead of like cutting back on say, 80% of that land and being able to grow enough plants to feed the entire country
It's not that far fetched to say that if we stopped subsidizing the factory farming industry and instead subsidized plant-base ag, we could potentially feed the country for free. I know realistically that wouldn't even happen because the US government let's manufacturers and retail make up whatever prices they want.
get ready for the dark money campaign to reclassify bird shit as a vegetable in school cafeterias
Because the US grows actual cow food for Saudi farmers
Sometimes I wonder how many deadly epidemics would have been prevented if society had just gone vegan.
Basically all of them afaik. Most of the big epidemics spread to humans from 1. domesticated animals 2. kept in very close/tight quarters
And carnists will still talk shit about processed plant protein like beyond meat as some kind of horrid franken-product
if you are still not vegan you’re doing some amazing mental gymnastics to live with yourself This world is going to hell if we don’t realize we share it with equals
Destroying the Amazon to grow grain for cow feed isn't enough, huh? We have to feed them literal birdshit as well? Hey remember when that one viral tiktok came out of a dude showing all of the ground up plastic being included in pig food? It's not enough that we obliterate entire ecosystems to keep burger prices down. That doesn't make it cheap enough. There is no amount of barbarity and callous indifference to our world's health that these motherfuckers won't engage in. I hate them all
"Bah, they'll be fine...We'll just pump 'em full of more antibiotics! And yes, I'm well aware that the Flu is a virus and won't be affected by antibiotics. But it will bulk them up fast enough to turn a profit, even with half of them dropping dead. And if things get really bad, we can just feed the dead cows back to the living. Not one thing wrong with that scheme!"And vegetarians will say that milk isn't meat
Funny about that. They force semen into a cow by fist fucking her. They do this so the cow can calf and produce milk. When the calf is born it's immediately taken from its mom. If it's a boy it's usually just killed. If it's a girl it's sent to a nursery where they feed it fake milk until she can eat normal food.
They do this 4 times before killing the dairy cow and turning it into hamburgers.
While the cow is alive, not only do they feed her stuff like bird shit, they also add stuff like bone tallow to the feed. They get the tallow from beef cows. So even vegetarians are supporting the meat industry.
I'm glad I don't work in that industry anymore.
Also I found out you aren't supposed to film inside of dairy parlors because they don't want you showing how abused the cows are. They constantly suffer from mastitis and when they milk them, some parlor workers use a blow torch to burn off the nipple hair so they can attach the sucker things.
You aren't supposed to film inside because of all the illegal immigrants too but that's a story for another day.
I isn't meat. It can be horrifying for completely other reasons.
well yeah lol I wasn't speaking literally
every little thing we can do to limit the harm we do to our world is worth the toil, but realize cows are abused for more than just meat
I literally called this the day the dude caught bird flu. Holy shit this whole country needs nuked, but the carbon output and radiation poisoning wouldn’t be fair to the global south.
Animal cruelty? Causing disease? And general horrors? Another thing marx talked about (quote from Saito Karl Marx's Ecosocialism):
...Responding to...enthusiastic reports about the 'system of selection developed by English breeder Robert Bakewell, [in 1864] Marx wrote in his notebook: 'Characterized by precocity, in entirety sickliness, want of bones, a lot of development of fat and flesh etc. All these are artificial produces. Disgusting!'
should we feed the cows the millions of potatoes farmers literally bury in pits every year
no, let us feed them chicken shit.
Ah sweet, man made horrors beyond my comprehension
Thank god it's not bugs.
Every day my disgust for carnists grows
Jesus fucking Christ
Hey, you. If you're disgusted by this but still eating animal products this free documentary might help you make the final push.
Me personally, I'm autistic with a binge eating disorder and I used to think I could never become vegetarian, much less vegan. Pretty much all my favorite cope foods used to have meat in them and some of them were just meat. This spring marks my 3 year vegan anniversary in large part because I watched Dominion and confronted the truth with genuine curiosity. I'm not going to lie to you and say it'll be easy. It's a big life change. Enough of a change that people will treat you differently once they know, for better and for worse. But it is easier than it used to be even just a couple years ago and as more people become vegan there are more resources available. I would personally be willing to help you if you need any advice, and I'm sure plenty of other vegans on here would answer questions as well.
(A general abuse/mass death NSFL CW for Dominion, you will not be able to unsee the footage or watch the behind the scenes footage of actors covered in fake gore making jokes like you would with a scary movie. It's all real.)
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
how do vegans get enough protein (for me, 3 servings per day of at least 20g each) without getting tired of constantly eating beans? it seems boring to the point of being depressing
this sounds like a joke but it's unironically probably my biggest barrier to going vegan right now
Death to America
Seitan makes a really good vegan protein as long as you don't have a gluten sensitivity
getting tired of constantly eating beans
skill issue tbh
practice cooking more and with a greater variety of flavor profiles. Pick a culture whose food you like and learn a few bean based recipes from that culture. If you like indian food, try a few different daals or curries with tofu, broccoli, cauliflower.
also, nuts exist.
edit correction:
broccoli has
about as muchmore than half the protein per calorie of tofucauliflor and brussels sprouts have similar ratios
mushrooms have
tonsalmost as much protein per calorie as tofu
Nah, probably just another coincidence.
Americans: "Asians are disgusting animal abusers based on this one video I saw on YouTube!"
Also Americans: "Hey cow... You want some food?"
Capitalism doing the don’t be abhorrent for like 5 minutes challenge, difficulty level: impossible.
Great, the Thatcher mad-cow scandal round 2!
Biden’s gonna have a John Gummer moment
yet another w for mckenzie and co
Why the fuck are we doing this
.001% increase in profit
What idiot thought feeding cows bird waste was a bright idea?
Capital
most efficient economic system btw
Death to America
Pretty sure we feed them plastic and defective candy too.
