It’s cultural genocide towards indigenous communities to be anti fur.
It’s also more respectful to the animal as youre not wasting parts of it.
It’s an important thing to support

Yo p slap that nigga

Well in the case with seals for example, the fur trade is important because their population is so large it’s impacting fish populations. A lot of their natural predators are endangered.
With cows and leather, this a byproduct that would rot anyway.
Why not use the whole animal?

Then once you get into how important it is to preserve indigenous culture in North America, that’s a whole other issue. And the most important one.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Please stfu

Quite the opposite i know exactly what im talking about

I think the biggest thing people take issue with are like fur farms

Usually that's what I see people speak out against in relation to fur.

You have proven you do not. It is perfectly okay to be an animal activist without supporting “cultural genocide towards indetenous communities”. You are playing make believe on ktt2.

Having like huge large scale factory farms of any type that’s harmful to animals is not good. And you can be against mistreating the animals, while pro still creating the products. Which i already said
Usually the brunt of the anti fur movement, has fallen on indigenous communities. And a lot of fur farms are small and familly owned.

Not if you’re anti fur
You can support the proper treatment of animals in factory farms and stuff that is different. But being blanket anti meat or anti fur is for sure that.

You can feel a way but that does not make it true.

lol

There is no treating animals well when you’re raising them specifically for the fur. It’s not an ethical business imo.

Food you can defend because at the end of the day people eat meat. But there’s no reason s*** like Mink farms should exist

Glad I could brighten up your day full of ignorance with a laugh

You should read my link that mentions this

Good point overall but maybe work on phrasing your defense of indigenous people. Brown folks doing something for thousands of years doesn't make that act good. In this specific context that could be interpreted as perpetuating the stereotype that these people lived in harmony with nature, kind of a modern version of noble savage. Sorry just throwing thoughts at you

No they should not. It does not even remotely refute their stance.

I’m just speaking for my friends who literally do this. You can call it what you want but this is a very real issue and people really do this. It is ethical for a lot of reasons. It’s strange people fixate on this while buying meat in the store, you’re using the whole animal instead of discarding large pieces in most circumstances. Plus these animals are a sustainable source and using them in some cases actually helps the environment/

You really just gon piggyback off the other user lmfao

bro linked a fur propaganda site

That was signed by multiple chiefs lol

One can 1) not support factory fur farming, 2) not buy or consume meat (or other animal products), and 3) support indigenous land rights and sustainable practices. All three of these things can be true. It is not a stretch at all either.

Just read it. I can understand where they are coming from but overall I disagree. I can’t say that ending Mink Farms and other types of fur farms is an attack on them. Even the article says mink farming isn’t a tradition in their culture.

Fur farming is different than hunting animals for food and harvesting the pelt for clothes. I’m fine with the sale of fur in that sense but dedicated farms specifically for fur is something I can’t really agree with

And in doing number 2 and 3, you have to support fur and eating meat. I already made my stance on large scale factory farming for any motif very clear lol
