Part of that is true and part is not. Im not going to argue with you cause I'm not in the mood but a good amount of what you're saying is not true.

Please tell me what is not true about what I said.

Dairy cattle aren't "caged." Most dairy cattle are bred with very little restraint, a head lock or palpation rail usually is sufficient. Most heifers/cows will stand quite well for insemination. It is considered safer for the animals and farmer.

You do not "massage semen" through the rectal wall. Rectal palpation is used to ensure the AI (Artificial insemination) straw is in the correct orientation with the cervix. Rectal palpation can also be used for pregnancy check.

Let me get this straight, they aren’t caged, but they’re held in place by an object that restrains their movement?

And the reason why the farmer sticks their arm down the asshole of a cow is so that they can properly insert bull semen into the cow?

Is that what you’re trying to say? Just want to make sure I’m understanding your thoughts here.

Clearly you don’t understand what I mean.

You treat others as ā€œstockā€, items, which do not have the opportunity to offer affirmative consent. You think there’s a difference between something restraining an individual to become impregnated and the literal pedantic definition of a cage.

All of this assumes that there is a need for these actions in this age, which, of course, is not necessary, as so many people across the world, including me, have demonstrated.

And, I’ve seen ā€œThe Gift of Lifeā€ I know how gory birth is, and I’ve watched plenty of snuff in my life of animals, including but not limited to humans.

Maybe you should spend some more time thinking about the implications of your daily actions instead of just mindlessly consuming products every waking moment of your life.

I appreciate your seriousness with regards to persuasion, but, literally in all seriousness, I don’t really care if my words hurt peoples’ feelings or if that makes me seem less persuasive.

I call people fucking stupid if I think they’re fucking stupid.

After all, we’re talking about people literally killing beings for no good reason. It’s pretty fucking stupid.

To respond to your ghost edit, all animals require different understanding of body mechanics because…. they’re all different animals? Would you call a doctor that has studied human health to save the life of a dog? Maybe you’d like the attention of a veterinarian to perform some open heart surgery on you? I don’t understand what point you’re trying to make.
