Via EvolutionNews, a “philosophy” prof is worrying about the ethics of bug farming.
If we’re going to farm animals that are candidates for sentience, then there should be welfare standards, says [philosophy processor Jonathan] Birch. Right now there are no widely recognized welfare guidelines for farmed insects, and few laws that specifically require insect farmers to meet certain welfare standards.
“If there are welfare concerns, you’ve got to intervene at the planning stages, when those facilities are being designed and constructed,” says Bob Fischer, a professor at Texas State University who works on insect welfare. There are many factors that farm designers need to take into account, including temperature, moisture levels, lighting, how crowded the insects are, and what they eat. For insect farmers, these are all engineering problems — they want to make sure as many bugs survive as possible and that the farms are cheap to run — but they’re also intricately tied to animal welfare.
What you mean WE, demon man? WE humans are not farming bugs. Your WEF demon accomplices are farming bugs, in order to implement Room 101 in literal form.
Of course philosophy is just a fancy name for JUSTIFYING NAZI TORTURE AND GENOCIDE. Bioethics is a step above philosophy. Bioethics REQUIRES NAZI TORTURE AND GENOCIDE.
Will this “concern” for “bioethics” slow down the demons? No. Regulating any activity gives it LEGITIMACY. With regulated farms and killing, the demons will be able to claim a perverse form of kosher or halal, even though Jewish and Muslim diet standards precisely prohibit eating arthropods.
