"Live Meat Bars"? I can't even believe
this shit exists! I just assumed there was some sort of anti-animal
cruelty legislation or something that would prevent something like this
from existing; but apparently not! Out of the six people I mentioned
this to at work, two of them had heard of it. (Or hadn't heard of it and
were just lying to sound cultured or whatever.)
Anyway, before I go off the rails, let me explain what the
fuck this Live Meat Bar malarkey is. Okay, so a "Live Meat Bar" is a
place where an "artist" slowly carves and serves up pieces of an animal,
usually a cow, that was "rescued" from a slaughter house in the name of
"art" or some wacky bullshit. I'm not fucking with you at all. I know,
look it up, it sounds like kooky bullshit, but it indeed exists. These
"artists" proclaim that they're "rescuing" the animal. Something like
Live Meat Bars rescue the animal from an undignified death, another
number, cold and industrial kind of death. Wow. You can spin anything
anyway you want apparently.
Supporters of the Live Meat Bar scene say that the animal
would otherwise be dying in a factory-style slaughter house, and they
turn the cow into a live art piece to "inspire creativity and promote
the freedom of expression" or some dumb dogshit. Live Meat Bar "artists"
cut pieces off a tied up, bucking cow who is crying out in agonizing
pain while onlookers applaud and eat the cooked pieces of meat. How in
the fuck do these people think this is any more of a dignified death for
the cow? Isn't it a tortuous, horrible, painful, humiliating way to
die? If you tortured a human being who was on death's door, I believe
they would attempt to end their own life prematurely. So if a Live Meat
Bar can torture a farm animal and say it was a dignified death because
it was going to die anyway, can someone torture a terminally ill person,
as long as it's referred to as art?
Live Meat Bars, ridiculous and insane. Terrible. I need to
do more research to find out how these end. What happens to the cow at
the end? The people who attend and perpetuate the Live Meat Bar scene
are absolutely insane and should be locked up and have the shit kicked
out of them. And I'm not even a vegan!
