Meat in 2100

Alysa 2022-10-26 08:21:17

Aside from vegetarians, many people eat meat with ambivalence, including me of course. On the one hand, meat is really delicious, and at the same time, it can quickly replenish nutrients; on the other hand, when you understand the source of these meats - all kinds of animals, and their tragic experiences, it is indeed a bit unbearable. Perhaps this situation can be completely resolved in the future. When will this happen? Let's assume for a moment the year 2100!

By 2100, the food industry has been highly developed. All meat can be grown artificially, just like artificial organs. Even if its internal structure is somewhat different from that of animals, it is absolutely guaranteed to taste the same and even more delicious.

At that time, the love of human beings has been highly flooded. The law stipulates that slaughtering animals at will is a violation of criminal law, and killing for meat is not allowed. Of course, if a mosquito bites you, you can kill it.

On January 1, 2100, a great day will be born, and it will be Animal Liberation Day.

Earthlings quotes

  • [first lines]

    title card: earth-ling n. - One who inhabits the earth.

    Narrator: Since we all inhabit the earth, we are all considered earthlings. There is no sexism, racism, or speciesism in the term 'earthling'. It encompasses each and every one of us: warm- or cold-blooded, mammal, vertebrate or invertebrate, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish and human alike.

  • Narrator: It is the human earthling who tends to dominate the earth, oftentimes treating other fellow earthlings and living beings as mere objects. This is what is meant by 'speciesism'. By analogy with racism and sexism, speciesism is a prejudice or attitude or bias in favor of the interests of the members of one's own species and against those of members of other species.
