The “personal ownership” is already commodifying the animal, and the “well cared for” part is bullshit, chickens kept for laying can not be well cared for by definition, as the modern breeds are literally slowly killing themselves through nutrient depletion. Such chickens can only thrive if they for example are stopped from laying (e.g. with hormonal implants), which negates the very reason a person like that would keep them. Then, the very motive for keeping the animals in the first place will eventually drive a small scale farmer to compromise on the conditions, because keeping animals alive is not cheap in on itself.
And don’t give me this shit about “not caring about animals” and “lashing out”, you literally wrote the most stereotypical anti-vegan slop just because I said people should eat beans rather than commodify animals
I wouldn’t call what they did “migration” since they weren’t even banned from or anything, it was more like they were invited in and broke a longstanding peace by engaging in a harassment campaign against long time users (some of whom left because of this and never came back) over a weekend that all the mods decided to either collectively or those that were there decided to look the other way
What are you even talking about, “long standing peace” and “harassment campaigns”? They started posting eating memes about dogs and local scratched anti-vegans tried to turn it into an anti-asian hate thing when there was no such element there at all. That was the “campaign”. It’s like calling out people who post cracker memes for doing “harassment campaigns”
No they did way more than that by frequently posting about r*pe with no content warnings among a host of other issues. Some of them were cool and have stuck around and are on the mod team but don’t act like that conflict was in any way one sided.
