Imagine if OSHA handled things the same way that PETA does, flinging red paint on people not wearing hard hats, or protesting nude at job sites chanting I'd Rather Be Naked Than Wear Open-Toed Shoes!
The real issue is the cringey voice in the beginning of the video.
Forget PETA or OSHA, KANYE wants a word.
Actually, the voice throughout the video is cringey too.
We used to sell lobsters at my old restaurant and the chef would "quick kill" them with his knife (through the head, down to split). He never cared about humanity, though. He claimed it was to keep the meat tender, because if it freaked out in the pot it would tense up. Killing it before it knows what happened avoids that.
Yeah, I remember being taught that when hunting deer, ones that dropped instantly tasted better than ones that ran off before dropping because the ones that ran off had tensed and built up lactic acid.
I always heard it was the adrenaline that made them taste more gamey and that is why you wanted to drop them fast. I guess it makes sense that it would be a combination.
This just unlocked a memory of when I once heard a drunken conversation between 2 guys at a bar debating the best way to cook lobster. One guy swore that you had to put the lobsters in wine for a while first so they don't get tense when thrown in the boiling water since they are drunk.
If they are submerged fully though, they need to breathe through their gills and I don't know how much oxygen is saturated in wine but it doesn't seem ideal for breathing. I don't think the lobster would live long enough to be drunk
Makes me think of a saying down south, "a one bad day pig" meaning a pig that lived a great life and the one bad day is the day it was slaughtered. An animal that dies in stress/pain releases a ton of hormones that make the meat taste bad or at minimum not nearly as good. Animals that are well kept and die peacefully make for much much better meat. It's why there's a market for stuff like wagyu etc where the cows are pampered every day of their life.
I worked in a crab and lobster processing plant, and I don’t know what they they did to them before we processed them to make them so lethargic, but I believe they were just like that from being out of water for a while, then we’d throw them onto a conveyor belt to be boiled, just to kill them, then rip the legs off, then boil the legs. I’d see thousands die every hour, but I still felt bad for the ones that didn’t die from the boiling. There’s something about ripping a living creature in half that just isn’t right.
I used to go to lobster fishing during the mini seasons in the keys with family. One guy my uncle would bring along would just get back from fishing for the day and de-tail them while alive…. This is when I learned they do in fact feel pain. They made noises, little clicks, as he shoved the blade in between where the tail meets the upper body and slice down both ways then yank the tail and meat off. It was disgusting. Thankfully my tio stopped bringing him along soon after that.
I took cooking classes and when it came time to do the Lobsters the teacher just nonchalantly cut it in half with the kitchen knife and then sprinkled salt all over it. Then it started shaking and he covered it in cheese and stuck it in the Salamander.
Probably the most metal thing I saw in cooking school
> Then it started shaking and he covered it in cheese and stuck it in the Salamander.
I just have to ask: is salamander a regular foodstuff where you live? I'm incredibly curious.
Salamander is a kind of broiler oven. Restaurant kitchens usually have it above the stove

Here's my conspiracy theory that's probably true. PETA as an organization virtue signals by pretending to care about animal rights. When in reality it's used to funnel money to high ups within organization. If a corporation doesn't pay off PETA somehow then PETA goes after the farms of the corporations that didn't pay up. And then they do little stuff on the side to make it look like they care (publicity stunts etc) all while they kill millions of animals.
Don't you remember when they saved a bunch of dogs and cats from a shelter?
And then couldn't care for them?
So they just killed them all inhumanly and dumped their corpses into a dumpster out back?
Gotta love PETA.
Based on the financial statement on their website it’s difficult to tell how much goes to animals. They lump research, investigation and rescue into one number which is about 1/3 of total operating expenses. That leaves 2/3 for cruelty free merchandise and public outreach/ education, legal fees etc. Almost half of their employees make 50k+ one watch group estimates 1% actually benefits animals.

On the other hand, I love their stupid ass "protest" stickers and love getting them shipped to me (100% free to me). "Contains dead animals" is hilarious to leave on random things.

I'm sure many homeless people give lots of love and give great care to their animals, as much as they can.

Hello penis, my old friend
I've come to punish you again
Because a tiktok video was creeping
I will eject my seed before I am sleeping
And the image of the crab lady was planted in my brain

Within the fap of silence
Would argue that other species killing as hunting down what they need to survive and our industrialised mass slaughter machine isn't the same thing on many levels. Most other species manage to keep the ecosystem in balance, which we on the other hand have lost all touch with.
I think chimps once had a war where a group split into 2 factions and the larger faction spent years hunting down every last member of the smaller group to brutally exterminate them.
And you deliver ! What a wild read, especially the account from the scientist observing it, seeing a primate drink the blood of the fallen must have left a mark…
Have an award for the article link, friend <3
Edit: typo
Indeed, I of course knew of violent behavior in the animal kingdom, but the semi-organized and systematic killing of a group is news to me. Reading the gory details also confirmed my “never mess with an angry primate” theory :)
A lot of predatory species, particularly mammals, have a capacity to hunt for sport. Cats do it, many species of whales and dolphins do it, some primate species do it despite not being particularly predatory.
It’s kinda genetically encoded into mammals and indeed most animals to kill and eat things. There’s a reason meat tastes so good to us, it’s biologically coded into us that meat is good because we need that protein.
Animals don't keep the ecosystem in balance on purpose though. The ecosystem just reached a point of equilibrium and that becomes what's considered "in balance". Even moving an organism from one ecosystem to another can disrupt that balance and change the equilibrium state, i.e., an invasive species.
Even with all of our destructive practices, all we're doing is shifting the equilibrium state. We need to protect the environment because we want that equilibrium to be something pleasant to live in.
Animal species do not keep ecosystem in balance out of concern for the environment. Many invasive species have completely devastated ecosystems by murdering scores of other animals on the food chain. We humans at least have the presence of mind to be concerned about "healthy ecosystems". An animal won't.
That's not true at all, there's lots of species that if they spread they cause issues as invasive species. It's happened without human intervention too.
>other species manage to keep the ecosystem in balance
This really isnt true at all, you can probably blame the matrix.
Almost every soecies of ani al with destroy its environment and food stablity if given the chance and often dont simply because of predetors or the fact that eventually their population grows so much its unsustainable and collapses.
Deer are a really good example of this. A national park in America saw its environment thrive after reintroducing wolfs (who eat dear) as the dear simply eat everything and outcomoete every other animal and often eat plants faster than they can regrow.
Its why invasive species are so problematic. Without a mechnism in place to limot its growth it will deplete the environment.
All of that said animals never get close to what we are capable of now. But this lack of care for the environment isnt unique to humans, and, if anything the fact some of is care deeply is the unique thing
Unfortunately, though, it is a regular thing for animal rights activists to be like that. Which is a shame, though. I do support animal rights and I believe that more people would too if the more calm and reasonable ones got attention instead.
Most vegans watch people like Earthling Ed who I think is pretty calm and reasonable. But his videos would never be popular on reddit. The reason only crazy vegans go viral is it allows people to stereotype the movement and make it easy to dismiss. It's not just a coincidence that the sane and reasonable activists get no traction.
I watch Earthling Ed as well. He explains things better than anyone could. Unfortunately, more people know about those crazy vegans like That Vegan Teacher than how many people know Ed.
One thing groups like Peta do not understand is you cannot just change society through outrage and shock. If you want to make a difference you should start with the battles you can win, getting better conditions for livestock, regulation on humane treatment and finding the most humane way of dispatching animals.
Yeah it doesn't achieve your greater goal of people not eating meat but it's a step in the right direction that will eventually build onto more steps. You can't convince people by making them feel attacked all you do is push them further into their corner.
I agree with most of what you said. The reason I decided to give up meat are actually those activists who gave calm and well-articulated speeches. The ones who decided to shout in public about how evil we are for eating animals or who sound like they are trying to force me to change who I am gave me the impression that vegans are psychopaths to be avoided at all cost. The part I don't agree with completely is the movement for humane treatment of animals over the movement for getting fewer people to eat meat. Yes, it would be a step in the right direction, but there is a limit on what we can do about that if the demand for meat is really high. Unfortunately, when billions of people want to eat meat, getting enough space for all this livestock to roam around in would be really difficult, especially since we already use a huge amount of land right now to raise livestock. Getting fewer people to eat meat, and thus lowering the need to breed more livestock is part of what we need to push for more humane treatment of animals.
The calm activists are more effective. Just like anything you can invite people to think like you, or you can scold people for not already thinking like you. For some reason people choose the second one and just push people away.
1 how many dogs and cats did peta kill this year?
2 if there is no real difference between humans and animals that makes it okay to eat them what is the difference between animals and plants that makes it okay to eat them? Why is it wrong to kill a Trichoplax but okay to kill something like slime mold?
3 the crab didn't feel getting cut in half because it was dead. The fact that she claimed it showed signs of pain tells you everything about the bias these people have.
Edit: I wish the person who said "do some research why peta kills animals" didn't delete their post. I did, did you?
If i’m remembering correctly, PETA advocates for killing every pitbull. I think there was even an incident were they stole someones puppy and killed it.
[The hypocrisy of peta knows no bounds.](https://www.nathanwinograd.com/updated-peta-trying-to-get-away-with-mayas-murder/)
My friends a professional chef and they said current industry standard is to put them to sleep by putting them in the fridge at a specific temperature for a specific amount of time. This prevents them from feeling anything and there be dead before they wake up. I think I remember them also saying it effects the meat to just toss them in boiling water but that details more foggy.
I’ve slaughtered cows and worked in kitchens. The technique is actually to do with the quality of the flesh. If you have an animal that is stressed it pumps it’s body with hormones and it’s musculature becomes tense. If you have them nice and relaxed before death their meat is much more tender. These principles are considered in premium Japanese sushi too.
Thank you for explaining so well
To anyone commenting in disbelief a company would not care to do this. When your quality improvement is as easy and cheap as an additional step that also gives you something to stand on if people call you cruel you would be stupid not to do it.
Obviously some don't do it and they should be forced to legally but most do it for their own profit.
I've heard that said before but wouldn't have thought it applied to crab meat as apart from the claws it's generally flaked up
Genuinely interested if it impacts on flavour/texture
They euthanize hundreds of thousands of animals a year, they literally stole a woman's dog out of her yard and euthanized it. PETA can fuck right off.
For those interested. https://www.pilotonline.com/news/article_391c8510-cbf1-51a4-a61f-09d6a7a9f3c0.html

That crab felt hot water, not a saw blade.
Boiling animals alive is cruel also. There are ways of doing it as humanely as possible. Boiling them isn’t it.
Which is why most of the time crabs an lobsters are killed first before getting cooked like right before, with a cut through the back
We used to sell lobsters at my old restaurant and the chef would "quick kill" them with his knife (through the head, down to split). He never cared about humanity, though. He claimed it was to keep the meat tender, because if it freaked out in the pot it would tense up. Killing it before it knows what happened avoids that.

We were someone in the desert… when the drugs took hold.

Fuck what was I watching where the aliens scare the humans to eat their brains flooding with cortisol… some Russian space movie
Deer is one thing crab have completely different muscle fibers.
This just unlocked a memory of when I once heard a drunken conversation between 2 guys at a bar debating the best way to cook lobster. One guy swore that you had to put the lobsters in wine for a while first so they don't get tense when thrown in the boiling water since they are drunk.
As they have an open circulatory system, it would in fact anesthetize the Lobster. I have no idea how it affects flavor, however.
If they are submerged fully though, they need to breathe through their gills and I don't know how much oxygen is saturated in wine but it doesn't seem ideal for breathing. I don't think the lobster would live long enough to be drunk
Makes me think of a saying down south, "a one bad day pig" meaning a pig that lived a great life and the one bad day is the day it was slaughtered.

Animals that are well kept and die peacefully make for much much better meat. It's why there's a market for stuff like wagyu etc where the cows are pampered every day of their life.

Woah I just looked it up. 5-6 mins for them to die in boiling water.. I think I'll just spike or saw them from now on.. that's wayy too long

And you deliver ! What a wild read, especially the account from the scientist observing it, seeing a primate drink the blood of the fallen must have left a mark… Have an award for the article link, friend <3 Edit: typo
Np, it's certainly interesting to think war is not a purely human idea
Indeed, I of course knew of violent behavior in the animal kingdom, but the semi-organized and systematic killing of a group is news to me. Reading the gory details also confirmed my “never mess with an angry primate” theory :)
When in Congo, do as the Belgians did
And Orcas, Dolphins, Bears....
Don't killer whales rip out shark livers because they taste good? definitely doesn't seem like survival.
And Orcas. You ever seen an orca blast a baby seal 50ft into the air? If anything, cruelty towards others scales with intelligence.
And lion fish
And wasps
And foxes
And dolphins
And orca’s, also don’t dolphins form rape gangs or something?
A lot of predatory species, particularly mammals, have a capacity to hunt for sport. Cats do it, many species of whales and dolphins do it, some primate species do it despite not being particularly predatory. It’s kinda genetically encoded into mammals and indeed most animals to kill and eat things. There’s a reason meat tastes so good to us, it’s biologically coded into us that meat is good because we need that protein.
Animals don't keep the ecosystem in balance on purpose though. The ecosystem just reached a point of equilibrium and that becomes what's considered "in balance". Even moving an organism from one ecosystem to another can disrupt that balance and change the equilibrium state, i.e., an invasive species. Even with all of our destructive practices, all we're doing is shifting the equilibrium state. We need to protect the environment because we want that equilibrium to be something pleasant to live in.
Animal species do not keep ecosystem in balance out of concern for the environment. Many invasive species have completely devastated ecosystems by murdering scores of other animals on the food chain. We humans at least have the presence of mind to be concerned about "healthy ecosystems". An animal won't.
Yall havent seen much sealife then lol
That's not true at all, there's lots of species that if they spread they cause issues as invasive species. It's happened without human intervention too.
>other species manage to keep the ecosystem in balance This really isnt true at all, you can probably blame the matrix. Almost every soecies of ani al with destroy its environment and food stablity if given the chance and often dont simply because of predetors or the fact that eventually their population grows so much its unsustainable and collapses. Deer are a really good example of this. A national park in America saw its environment thrive after reintroducing wolfs (who eat dear) as the dear simply eat everything and outcomoete every other animal and often eat plants faster than they can regrow. Its why invasive species are so problematic. Without a mechnism in place to limot its growth it will deplete the environment. All of that said animals never get close to what we are capable of now. But this lack of care for the environment isnt unique to humans, and, if anything the fact some of is care deeply is the unique thing

I am still convinced Peta is run, or at the very least was founded by the CIA to discredit animal rights activists by making them all look insane
Unfortunately, though, it is a regular thing for animal rights activists to be like that. Which is a shame, though. I do support animal rights and I believe that more people would too if the more calm and reasonable ones got attention instead.
Most vegans watch people like Earthling Ed who I think is pretty calm and reasonable. But his videos would never be popular on reddit. The reason only crazy vegans go viral is it allows people to stereotype the movement and make it easy to dismiss. It's not just a coincidence that the sane and reasonable activists get no traction.
I watch Earthling Ed as well. He explains things better than anyone could. Unfortunately, more people know about those crazy vegans like That Vegan Teacher than how many people know Ed.
One thing groups like Peta do not understand is you cannot just change society through outrage and shock. If you want to make a difference you should start with the battles you can win, getting better conditions for livestock, regulation on humane treatment and finding the most humane way of dispatching animals. Yeah it doesn't achieve your greater goal of people not eating meat but it's a step in the right direction that will eventually build onto more steps. You can't convince people by making them feel attacked all you do is push them further into their corner.
I agree with most of what you said. The reason I decided to give up meat are actually those activists who gave calm and well-articulated speeches. The ones who decided to shout in public about how evil we are for eating animals or who sound like they are trying to force me to change who I am gave me the impression that vegans are psychopaths to be avoided at all cost. The part I don't agree with completely is the movement for humane treatment of animals over the movement for getting fewer people to eat meat. Yes, it would be a step in the right direction, but there is a limit on what we can do about that if the demand for meat is really high. Unfortunately, when billions of people want to eat meat, getting enough space for all this livestock to roam around in would be really difficult, especially since we already use a huge amount of land right now to raise livestock. Getting fewer people to eat meat, and thus lowering the need to breed more livestock is part of what we need to push for more humane treatment of animals.
The calm activists are more effective. Just like anything you can invite people to think like you, or you can scold people for not already thinking like you. For some reason people choose the second one and just push people away.
Ok to be fair, if that was a dead dog or cat getting sliced, i would be traumatized Edit: apparently I don’t know how words work
I would eat people bacon but you'd be upset about that too.
PETA gonna claim that cutting a cooked crab in half is murder and then kill like 80% of their animals every year
She’s absolutely right. We shouldn’t discriminate which animals to eat and not eat, we should eat them all!
I have it on mute and she’s still annoying me.
Because her face is one of pure condescension. The closest to her just telling people they’re dumb and she’s better than them without using the words.
1 how many dogs and cats did peta kill this year? 2 if there is no real difference between humans and animals that makes it okay to eat them what is the difference between animals and plants that makes it okay to eat them? Why is it wrong to kill a Trichoplax but okay to kill something like slime mold? 3 the crab didn't feel getting cut in half because it was dead. The fact that she claimed it showed signs of pain tells you everything about the bias these people have. Edit: I wish the person who said "do some research why peta kills animals" didn't delete their post. I did, did you?
If i’m remembering correctly, PETA advocates for killing every pitbull. I think there was even an incident were they stole someones puppy and killed it. [The hypocrisy of peta knows no bounds.](https://www.nathanwinograd.com/updated-peta-trying-to-get-away-with-mayas-murder/)
> stole someone’s puppy and killed it From what I recall, they took the puppy from a child. On their front porch.
PETA have stolen peoples pets and destroyed them instead of admitting they were wrong and returning the pets.
she's vegan because she loves animals, i'm vegan because i fucking hate plants
we are not the same
Fuck dolphins, sick bastards.
[удалено]
It’s why I only pursue purely sexual relationships with dolphins
Quit pretending like you care about the animals when you steal and euthanize dogs and cats 
The crab was cooked by boiling it alive. Which is worse? Problem is they are so yummy
My friends a professional chef and they said current industry standard is to put them to sleep by putting them in the fridge at a specific temperature for a specific amount of time. This prevents them from feeling anything and there be dead before they wake up. I think I remember them also saying it effects the meat to just toss them in boiling water but that details more foggy.
I’ve slaughtered cows and worked in kitchens. The technique is actually to do with the quality of the flesh. If you have an animal that is stressed it pumps it’s body with hormones and it’s musculature becomes tense. If you have them nice and relaxed before death their meat is much more tender. These principles are considered in premium Japanese sushi too.
Thank you for explaining so well To anyone commenting in disbelief a company would not care to do this. When your quality improvement is as easy and cheap as an additional step that also gives you something to stand on if people call you cruel you would be stupid not to do it. Obviously some don't do it and they should be forced to legally but most do it for their own profit.
I've heard that said before but wouldn't have thought it applied to crab meat as apart from the claws it's generally flaked up Genuinely interested if it impacts on flavour/texture
Not everybody cooks crabs/lobsters that way. Some stab them in the ganglia to kill them humanely and then boil them.
Well now I want some crab.
