Ask A Philosopher – Open Q&A on Sentientism

Video of an open Q&A session about Sentientism and whether morality should be grounded or emerge from negotiated consensus (or both)

Help us build our FAQ!

We’ve started a FAQ for Sentientism using some initial question suggested by members of our FaceBook group.

I’d love any feedback – whether new questions, better answers or both.

Today the Scrap Factory Farming Campaign (@ScrapFactFarm) headed by Michael Mansfield Q.C is applying for judicial review of DEFRA’s support for factory farming before the High Court. https://youtu.be/jVQVXGUeFsE

First they ignore you.

Then they laugh at you.

Then they fight you.

Then they publish essays that defend eating meat while noting that the defense applies only to non-factory farmed meat, thus excluding 95% of meat and implying the need for a plant-based future.

Then you win.

One of the things I like about #sciencefiction is how naturally and easily and obviously it grants serious moral consideration to non-human sentient beings.

If only we could do the same for “farmed” and “wild” sentient animals.

Powerful @aeonmag logic!

If you care about dogs, it’s your moral duty to eat them.

Whether or not we see it, animals experience a great deal of suffering in the wild. This video series from @animalethics introduces the basics of wild animal suffering, as well as what can be done to solve the problem. https://www.animal-ethics.org/wild-animal-suffering-video-course/

@RichardSsuna @CosmicBrace He's probably already gone mad from stress, boredom, loneliness and grief over separation from his family. Death would frankly be kinder. Solitary confinement is recognised as torture when it's inflicted on humans.

If you're an #introvert, #gay/#LGBTQ+, #atheist, #vegan and/or #sentientist (or tweet about related topics), then F4F 🤓 I will also be discussing the above topics & typically only follow accounts in these niches. Please message me if I didn't follow you back.

Who would you most like to publicly become a #Sentientist?

Committed to “evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings.”
