This is not an isolated issue. This is how we treat animals and other humans (regarding the harpooning, we only do it figuratively to other humans, not literally).

Go vegan.

People's morality about slaughtering meat is going to flip so hard once we get affordable lab grown meat, future generations will think of us as utter savages. But until then I don't think it's going to happen at scale

I doubt, it's going to make any sudden jumps. We have various vegan meat alternatives already, which are good, and you still have plenty people that feel personally attacked by the existence of morals, because they base their personality on eating dead animals.

What does veganism have to do with opposing whale hunting?

[-] falcunculus@jlai.lu 7 points 1 week ago

It's not just whales, one could draw the same comic about other animals being hunted or factory farmed, it would be very traumatic to live through. In fact Disney made an animated one about deer.

[-] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Factory farming is indeed very bad. But the way to fix it isn't to go vegan. The way to fix it is to campaign legislators to change the laws to stop factory farming. And being vegan, you've basically deleted yourself from that particular equation. Because now no one has any reason to listen to you on the subject.

Your point makes no sense.

[-] kapulsa@feddit.org 4 points 1 week ago

I thought I provided that connection by mentioning the harm we're doing to almost all animals.

About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.
