  • Humanity is doomed. We evolved the ability and the motivation to cooperate, but with only a very narrow scope of “our people”. We found that the best way to succeed was to manipulate, abuse, and kill anyone or any creature or any landscape outside of “our people” when the situation calls for it. The social order has not changed since 100,000 years ago, we just give the classes and the tribes new names. People are not evolved to understand a worldwide scale of society. So of course the first and best option when things get tough is to gather the spears, or these days, gather the guns and the bombs. It’s remarkable we still have a world now that nuclear arms are available to any nation with the capital for it. But on the astronomical time scale we are still in the first moments following their development. I don’t see how humanity makes it to “3,000 years after Christ” unless there is a tremendous worldwide shift in thinking.













  • For many people, especially the Lemmy crowd, the topic is reprehensible. The vegan communities have 100 times as many members as this carnivore one. It’s good to have diversity of opinions on the internet but I think this is a case where the evidence is overwhelming against carnivores and it shouldn’t have its own community. These discussions should go in existing communities.

    The meat industry is well known to be bad for the environment simply due to its scale.

    I don’t care about this section but it has to be said. The industry is well known to be cruel to animals throughout their lives. And they are kept purely for the purpose of killing them. For a lot of people this is reason enough to block this community.

    Additionally most people are more healthy when they eat a majority or fully vegetarian diet. Assuming they don’t just eat carbs all day. Carnivore diets have been studied and shown to increase the risk of several diseases.
