          Cows produce more milk if they’re forcibly impregnated every year. Supporting cow milk is supporting rape, this is a fact.

                So putting semen up a vagina without consent isn’t rape?

                The concept of consent does not apply for livestock in this context. And yes, in the context of artificially inseminating livestock, that is correct.

                I am sure laws vary by country, but going with laws here…

                One is done with a glorified Turkey baster to livestock. The other with your penis to a woman.

                Are we seriously comparing women to livestock here? But even AI to a human woman would be sexual assault, not rape.

                  One is done with a glorified Turkey baster to livestock. The other with your penis to a woman.

                  Both are non-consensual penetrations of animal vaginas. The actors involved need not be the same species, as in bestiality, and the thing used to penetrate need not be a body part. How would you like it if the women loved ones in your life were vaginally penetrated with Turkey basters instead of penises? Makes no difference because the deed is the same: concent is violated and in a sexual (read: vaginal body parts = sexual body parts) manner.

                  I’m not comparing women to livestock in the slightest, you’re putting words in my mouth. I’m saying that actions of rape DONE TO BOTH women and animals bear exact similarity. There is no difference between artificial insemination without consent of women as for animals, and there is no difference between vaginal intercourse without consent of animals as for women. Both of these instances constitute rape.

                  And artificial insemination without consent to a women is absolutely rape. It consists of vaginal penetration without consent. That is literally the definition.

            Look, I don’t disagree with your point necessarily, but you’re not winning over literally anyone in this thread. It’s just not happening.

            Nobody ever has been convinced that dairy is rape and meat is murder by some Lemmy user saying “dairy is rape” and following up with “because it is”.

            Most obviously, your primary argument is consequentialism, which many people just don’t see as a valid form of ethics. Many people subscribe to deontology instead, and so they don’t see it as rape because they are not obtaining sexual gratification from artificial insemination or drinking milk.

              You’re telling me motive makes a bad thing okay to do under deontology? In other words, it’s okay for a deontologist to murder someone if they have a cool motive?

              I dunno I thought Kant said you should never do bad things even if you have a good reason.

                Imo, Kant’s principles don’t really apply in this scenario, the Categorical Imperative applies to human-to-human treatment. Kant’s primary principle is act as such it would become universal law. Animal consumption is already a universal law.

                Murder (of a human) is wrong because when applied universally, then society collapses. Theft is wrong because when applied universally, the right of property, and therefore society, collapses.

                Animal consumption doesn’t cause societal collapse.

                Thoughts?

                  Animal consumption causes factory farming, and farming causes chickens to develop stress-induced autophagia. I don’t like it when the chickens are so unhappy they eat themselves and need to be debeaked. We should all stop doing things that cause that.

          Do you think they’re always producing milk? Or that the industry switched cows out 1 by 1 as each and every one stops making milk?

            I’ve never claimed that rape is only a “human phenomenon”. Artificial insemination of livestock is not raping them though.

            I just have common sense and understand that nuance exists.

              Artificial insemination is rape. It involves non-consensual penetration of another animal. It can happen by a bull, by a human, or by any other animal (or alien for that matter). Makes no difference for the animal that is on the receiving end.

              Your idea of nuance quite conveniently means that the moral caution you afford to humans isn’t afforded to animals, which is anthropocentrist and egocentric. If ever in the future you call yourself empathetic, know that you absolutely aren’t.

                Factually incorrect

                Your idea of nuance quite conveniently means that the moral caution you afford to humans isn’t afforded to animals

                Yes, absolutely, things are different in different situations and contexts. That’s literally how nuance works. Absolutism and reducing morality down to black-and-white is incorrect.

                If ever in the future you call yourself empathetic, know that you absolutely aren’t.

                🙄 yeah, using actual rape victims’ suffering to push your personal agenda makes you super empathetic and the good guy… oh brother

                  Factually incorrect

                  Nope, I’m right. Rape is the non-consensual penetration of another animal’s vaginal, anal, or oral orifices. Applies to humans, cows, or any other animal.

                  things are different in different situations and contexts.

                  But humans and animals are the same in their capacity to experience pain and pleasure (i.e. to be sentient). That capacity may vary according to species, but your lack of recognition for that once again proves to me how egocentric you are. How fucking dull.

                  actual rape victims

                  You mean cows right? And women? And any other member of a species that experiences rape? You cannot gatekeep this to just humans. Seems to me that you’re the one disrespecting rape victims here by denying how other species can experience the same.

              There’s quite literally no other way to put it.

              Imagine if we sugar coated women that undergo sexual abuse and rape. We’d be 100% in support of the women, no questions asked (well, hopefully, but more and more beta incel cucks are making their voices heard online).

              People will ignore this issue just like they ignore climate change. We as activists have a role in making it so they can’t ignore these things

                  I was saying that HUMANS will ignore the reality in front of them if it means they can uphold their materialistic desires and wants. HUMANS will ignore climate change, genocide, animal abuse and slaughter, homelessness, whatever you want to put here. Many Western countries into today’s age are individualistic and selfish.

                  I’m with this guy.

                  Also I think even if they want to make the most forfecul point possible, I don’t think talking about consent is the greatest thing.

                  Should really impress the fact that they’re won’t produce milk unless they’ve been pregnant. So dairy cows are kept pregnant as much as possible. They live like five years then collapse of exhaustion and get carted to the slaughterhouse.

                  The cows my late grandma tended to in her youth lived like 20 years.

                  Industrial intensive farming is immoral as fuck but I can’t really pretend like the cow understands sexual assault.

    armchair engineers: do you know how much heat you’re wasting?!

      Honestly I wasn’t going to post this, because it’s an AI meme. I just thought the whole juxtaposition of the obvious AI image and the idea itself was so stupidly funny

      Perfect. At least some of the people are not asleep at the wheel and can still keep the place they like garbage-free.

      I like that people can and do express that LLM slop is not welcome here.

    Beer pipeline are a thing. At the Hellfest festival all the bars are connected to a beer pipeline fed by tankers trucks of beer.

      Exactly. Almost as great of an idea as running a 1/2” hot/cold line 100+ ft to a house from… nvm, I give up, this is too stupid to even make a joke.

        Just keep running the hot water, it’ll get the cooled water from the pipes out of the system at some point!

    Such painfully obvious AI. Hot water lines from your municipality… yikes. The amount of heat and energy loss for piping hot water, not to mention the excess heat abnormally warming soil temps… wtf.

      Iceland does the municipal hot water, at least in large parts of Reykjavik. Although many hotels heat their own, because the sulphur smell from it is somewhat an acquired taste.

      Not the milk though, instead they pump fresh cold Skyr.

        Most bigger municipalities in Sweden also does hot water for central heating - some and have just recently begun adding central cooling via cold water too

      You spent too long engaging the joke then. Corporate theft issues aside this is the perfect use of AI. It’s 5 seconds and move on…

      If you run the hot water lines under the streets it can double as snow removal in the winter to help reduce road salt consumption!

      …We’ll just pretend we don’t have to worry about making urban heat islands worse in the summer

    Why is the milk pipeline so huge? Planning on using 10x milk compared to water? :)

      A family of five will use up to 50 gallons of milk a day performing their regular colon cleansing enema. A larger pipeline is not only important for the volume needed to complete the enemas, but also reduces the pressure. this increases the safety of the public and allows them to calm their bowels through milk-meditative-medicine, sponsored by 3M.
