I’m against legalizing bestiality because the animal consent problem hasn’t been solved, but probably actually will be quite soon thanks to Al (at least for the higher animals with complex languages). So why not wait a few more years. I don’t see disgust as a good reason. It was an evolutionary adaptation of the agricultural era against the spread of zoonotic illnesses, but technology will soon make that entirely irrelevant as well.
of all the hills to die on, why would anyone pick this one lmao
Because they want to fuck animals?
There’s no animal I’m aware of that has a mental capacity beyond that of a child. We don’t think children are capable of giving consent - are we clearing the way to legalise paedophilia too, or are there animals with the mental capacity to provide informed consent that only lack the ability to communicate that consent?
Spoiler: It’s not a communication issue. If this technocratic psycho was more concerned with actually contemplating the morality of the question, and less focused on rearranging the insides of a parrot, his takes might be a little less monstrous.
i like how he sees the “consent problem” as just a communication thing. “if they could speak, they would be saying yes”
I don’t think anyone else has said this, so I shall.
What in the actual fuck.
This is so hard because every one of his arguments is wrong, but the worst thing is that he’s arguing this at all.
Gotta wonder if that’s in any way related to how so many of those assholes have a hate-on for furries
holy mental gymnastics to make furries sound normal
