The real problem with people who eat meat is that they haven't completely inured themselves to the screams of the dying.
More Americans should do the FFA thing, where you raise a baby piglet to slaughter weight and then personally tear the adorable creature's heart out with a knife. That's definitely going to produce a bunch of vegetarians and not a generation of hollow-eyed psychopaths. Can't wait till we have more guys like Ron DeSantis, staring blankly into empty space for hours on end, then giggling softly any time they hear the sounds of pain.
I love pain. Sometimes it bothers me because i really do care when others are in pain, and try to help them. I just feel really happy when im around suffering and i cant control it. I cant go to funerals because the crying makes me feel so joyous i laugh.
As an activist this helped me to be totally unfazed being around homeless addicts in miserable conditions. I gave them narcan, helped them to cook eachother meals on a scale of dozens of people, and antagonized the city council and even the state government until many of them were given appartments or just shelter with the broken promise of an appartment.
I cant lie though. I enjoyed every minute of their suffering. They talked to me about their lives and it made me a good listener. I remembered their names, and never forgot anything. I was never dismissive.
I had such a nagging guilt about it. I actually lived with them 3 - 4 days a week for 4-6 months. In those days i really felt horrible about it, but now ive just come to the underdtanding that being a sadist doesnt make me a sociopath, and that its ok to find joy in the suffering of others. Its just not okay to think that suffering should stsy just because it makes me happy. Explosions also make me happy but i dont want a nuclear war.
The problem with Ron DeSantis isnt that he is a sadist. Its that he is a hedonist. People without convictions should read Lenin and stoic philosophy.
