I like how she even brings up that they have to use a special spice/herb mixture to cook the dog meat so it doesnt have an unpleasant taste and smell.

So its literally not even good to eat unless you spice the shit out of it. GG China.

Im surprised indians dont eat all kinds of animals and insects. Strange how they are mostly vegetarians.

wait, they cooked them with the guts inside?

is there a particular reason the chinese are trying to do everything as inhumane, unsanitary, and needlessly cruel as possible when it comes to cooking the dogs? or is that just how they treat everything they eat?

is there a vid i'm missing where they kill the dog quick and painless, skin it, gut it, clean it, and cook it in a way that sanitary and delicious?

like there's not even the slightest hint at an attempt to do it legit

They're just cruel people, it's cultural. Some don't even bother slaughtering them, they just chuck them in the pot.

Most dogs eaten in china are boiled alive.

Pigs are smarter than dogs. Explain how eating a pig is ok but eating a dog isn't, other than the fact white people in Europe didn't do it.

do they regard their actions as cruel? as in, does the cruelty add to the pleasure of the meal/cooking process, or are they simply blind to the fact?

and man, i sure do love boiled dog where the full bowels ruptured inside the body cavity after they steamed up during the cooking process. and then they chop them up on the tarmac, covered in the blood and boiled fecal matter of the other dogs. and then they keep it outside, unrefrigerated and uncovered on the street corner, waiting for a buyer

I didn't say eating dogs wasn't okay, they're fair game as much as any animal, but boiling them alive is not.

They believe it makes the meat taste better.

maybe you're not a native english speaker, but it's explicitly clear that the issue in question is not whether it's morally right to eat dogs, but whether they need to be cooked in the cruelest and most unsanitary conditions possible

if my bacon was made by boiling dirty pigs alive, and then cleaning them outside on a street corner, i'd sure have something to say about it

No. If you have never loved a dog and think it is even in the realm of possibility to eat one then you are a subhuman. These chinks should be wiped off the planet

not really a pet person so no love for dogs. they probably taste fine when cooked right.

>These chinks should be wiped off the planet
amen

>it's cultural

Oh fuck off. About 15 million dogs are eaten in Asia annually, even if you only count China that's one backwards prick out of a hundred eating one dog a year. If 1% is your standard for writing off a whole culture, then you're gonna have a hard time finding a country you're willing to live in.

Eating dogs is cultural though. So is boiling them alive. It's really not done outside of Asia. It might not be super common, but it is cultural, and those who do it are cruel.

Stay buttmad, stinky chinky.

So it's okay to describe an entire people by what 1% of them do?

Considering the stakes, yes.

If they don't like it, they should crack down.

mmmm...stakes

Dear Trump and Mattis, pls unleash total war on asia and spare no one

agreed, if most of the population doesn't agree with what a minority does, they should crack down on it so as not to create any misunderstanding about the perspectives on the culture, thus maintaining a more positive view of it on the global stage

They don't care though, it's stupid to get so exercised about this one particular species. Most other industrial countries visit ten times as much cruelty on pigs just in terms of raw numbers, and it would be equally stupid to condemn them as "cruel people" because the average citizen doesn't give a shit.

The stakes of what

It's pretty simple my dude.

Pigs have been selectively bred as a food sources for thousands of years.

Dogs have been bred as a companion and service animals for thousands of years.

The dogs used for meat have been bread as a food source. The don't just pop down PetCo.

>Most other industrial countries visit ten times as much cruelty on pigs just in terms of raw numbers
They don't boil them alive.

>They don't care though
And in this, they show how cruel they really are.

Torturing animals en masse.

Except for the hundreds of thousands every year that are stolen pets.

I acknowledge that. I was just trying to give insight into why those unaccustomed to the consumption of dog might get rustled.

>And in this, they show how cruel they really are.
"They" still being a tiny minority.
What are you doing about animal cruelty besides being outraged?

Also its probably worth mentioning that the dogs they breed for slaughter still exhibit the traits of a companion animals, and not that of livestock.

Just because you've loved A dog does not mean you need to love ALL dogs.Energy wasted on caring about things beyond my sphere of influence only costs the things within my sphere of influence.

>I-it's only 1%
>you'd fly to china and stop them if you really cared
Sure smells like rice in here

Aaand you've run out of arguments.

I dunno man, if you've ever been around livestock for a while they're not exactly dumb. Cows have personalities.

>"They" still being a tiny minority.
Reading comprehension. You're saying "they" (people who don't care about the torturous killing of cats and dogs) are a tiny minority.

They are a significant portion of the population. Without them, there are two groups: people who are opposed to the act, and those who are for the act. I count the indifferents and the people who are pro-killing to be bad people, and if it is as you suggest, that both parties constitute

>I count the indifferents and the people who are pro-killing to be bad people
In that case, you count most people as bad people with regards to nearly every issue. The vast majority of people are indifferent or unaware of problems in their society. Do it if it makes you feel good, but don't believe it makes you superior.

Having a job that pays more than minimum wage makes you superior to most people...

If you're indifferent to a bad thing, you are almost as bad as someone who is pro-bad thing.

It's not about feeling superior, it's about not sitting idly by when hundreds of thousands of cats and dogs, quite a lot of which are stolen family pets, are starved for days and then beaten over the head with a stick to stun them and chucked into a pot of boiling water to die.

>bring to a boil
>add salt to taste

so? same shit's happening to humans/other anmals all over the world - why the preference for dogs/cats?

>humans/other animals all over the world get boiled alive by the millions
No they don't, you're retarded.

quite a jump from hundreds of thousands to millions

Hundreds of thousands of them are pets, there are millions total. This isn't some unknown issue you know, you can do your own research.

Why is that relevant?

different guy here:
it tastes like dog. different from beef or lamb or anything else.

yes it tasted so good that when i came home i killed fluffy and ate him didnt taste as good :^)

not that user but I've heard it tastes like shit and they only ate it cause of famine and they only eat it now cause of cultural history.

So what are you doing about all the children that are being forced to sew clothes all day?

What about the women being trafficked as sex slaves after being kidnapped?

What are you doing to stop child pornography?

What are you doing to stop the abuse and neglect of the elderly in nursing homes?

How about testing things on animals,what are you doing about that?

What are you doing to stop shark finning?

How are you helping to stop puppy mills?

If you aren't actively doing something to stop these things and many others far worse,then by your logic, you are a bad person.

Conversely,if you spent all available time being outraged and filling out petitions, you would never have time to earn a living, to say nothing of the negative health effects from being enraged constantly.

What an idiot.

This is why the land of the free(dumb) will collapse.

No you fucking wouldn't.

...

you are the one presenting a fact that 'hundreds of thousands of them are pets'. you should be the one to present the evidence. a missing pet does not mean it was stolen and eaten for fucks sake. that's like counting every missing person as a murder. even arguing that a percent of all animals might be pets, you have no objective proof to even say if it's 1% or 50%

are you saying that mankind should not allowed to adapt tools to suit their needs if circumstances change?

because if you are, that is pretty retarded.

No, I don't eat dog or pig sorry!

You're an idiot

>They estimate 70 per cent of the dogs eaten in Asia are pets stolen from communities or homes.
Happy?

Reading comprehension isn't too good is it? This doesn't mean that missing pets are all getting eaten. This is like saying 70% of people murdered were kidnapped. This doesn't imply that 70% of animals that go missing are eaten.

How's your reading comprehension? It says "70% of dogs eaten", not "70% of dogs missing". Retard.

it is now ahmed

>Reading comprehension
>This doesn't imply that 70% of animals that go missing are eaten.

that's exactly what it implies

yeah i think ill pass on the boiled fido.

I think you're all not considering the fact that it's not accepted by many people in China. Every year there are many people (and Chinese celebrities) protesting these festivals chinasmack.com/yulin-dog-meat-festival-controversy-and-conflict-escalates

not him but currently yes
