Most fun things are unethical
Octopus is delicious. Octopi are on average smarter than your crotch spawn. Your crotch spawn smell bad and probably won’t be tasty but if they were it would be more ethical to kill and eat them than octopi

t. anti natalist

How is it any different than eating other animals?
Eating fish is technically more ethical because they don't feel pain compared to other animals, but also who gives a shit it's all delicious.

I think it's delicious but won't eat it unless it's presented to me. You vote with your dollar so I would never buy it, but someone else already bought it and wants to share? At that point it'd be disrespectful and wasteful not to.

Is eating anything ethical? No matter what you consume, you are inevitably killing a shitload of living creatures in the process.

So a better question is: Is it ethical to live?

>> No.19044071

eating ANYTHING isnt ethical. ALL LIFE IS SACRED. STOP EATING. YOU'RE KILLING OTHER THINGS JUST SO YOU CAN LIVE, HOW CAN YOU BE SUCH MONSTERS

Oh great, the vegan squad is here to inevitably tell us we should all just die and never have kids so some cows can get the zoomies.

I don't think this guy is a vegan. He said eating anything, that'd include plants.

>>19044067
I think the closest thing you can get to living without harming anything is what the Jains do. They don't eat plants you can't harvest without killing them. So no root plants.

I respect the dedication but that shits not for me, I'm going to keep eating animals. I can live with the ethical consequences.

>> No.19044107

>>19044079
Pigs are far smarter than octopi or dogs. They're far more emotionally capable as well.
>>19043021
It's perfectly ethical. It's not moral ("according to contemporary customs") at all though.

>> No.19044141

>>19043021
good question
will refrain commenting
but have to admit I do enjoy eating the tentacles; reminds me of chewing o-rings
very pleasurable
yes, I would be ok with octopus flavored o-rings as a substitute

No different then eating any other animal. ANY animal. ANY.

>> No.19044186

>>19044079
The Japanese eat Dolphins, they are smarter.

Bottom line is, you cannot avoid killing if you are to survive.

>>19044080
No, you absolute clusterfuck of a man. I am literally saying you will be killing living creatures no matter what you do, so stop worrying and eat anything that you daam well please so lkng as it is not human.

Now shut up and fry some bacon!

It does not matter, simply because by performing agriculture you are killing a shitload of animals in the process.

Just look at avocados, to grow an acre of it you have to kill like 100k animals in the process!

>> No.19044208

If you want to do some wide spectrum where do you draw the line shit the Octopi fall slightly below the tool wielding level as far as ethics go and if you'd eat a sea otter then you should have no problem eating an octopus.

>> No.19044231

>>19044208
This is a weird example who the fuck out there is eating sea otters? It's also wrong, octopus are tool users. Delicious tool users, but tool users nonetheless.

Delicious? Very, yes.

It is ethical to eat anything other than your own species (for humans. Animals can cannibalise all they want) and related species, such as other primates due to the greater risk of getting diseases from whatever you're eating. That's apparently how we got AIDS. And no, Africans didn't fuck monkeys, they ate rare monkey meat

>> No.19044708

>>19044678
you can eat anything that agrees to be eaten, just ask the animal if it wants to be eaten. unless it says no, then you can eat it.
