vegans make peace with honey

no shut up do it

vegans will pretend not to hear when natives tell them their agave products are unsustainable because they have whimsical feelings about, and i cannot stress this enough, the freedom of hive insects

Honey is literally murder but go off

Prove it.

They literally puke their guts up to make your honey

I have not seen any evidence tonsugges they are harmed or die in the process of production. They do regurgitate the nectar as part of the process to concentrate it into honey (an interesting process) but they do not suffer any injury during this process. If they did, the cost to produce honey, which is done naturally as a measure to survive over winter and through times of lower availability, would outweigh the benefits. If you kill several bees to produce enough honey to make one more bee, It makes no sense. Any animal that did that would die, even with human intervention.

Do you have any sources which suggest otherwise? I’d be interested to hear of this (relatively publicly available) information was false or misunderstood.

Bee farmers use whats called a honey maker. It’s a crude devices. It similar to a meat grinder. They force the bees in and grind them up. What comes out is a paste. That paste is later filtered into what we know as honey

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read

@zoologicallyobsessed please show us pics of your bee grinder

they might be falsely thinking about a honey extractor machine. but all these do is you place the beehive frames inside and a motor rotates it at a speed that removes the honey, which is then tapped through a tap at the bottom.

…do they think they put bees in that and spin them around until they vomit…?

Vegans coming after beekeepers is one of my major teeth grinding annoyances. For many reasons, because there’s so many lies. And to go one step further because it’s such a waste. You see, the strongest vegan argument is that they don’t want to exploit animals or take from them without their consent.

… but… Bees consent. NO. I’M NOT KIDDING.

How? Bee hives aren’t kept on leashes. They’re outside, the bees can travel miles every day. They follow their queen. Who is also outside, not on a leash, and can travel miles every day. If she doesn’t like the hive for any reason - for example: it got too hot, too cold, too messy, too filled with sugary stuff and they need more space… then the queen leaves. And with her the hive.

The queen stays in the hive because the hive is the best place to live. Period. Done. End of. If the hive is staying with the beekeeper it’s because the keeper is doing their job correctly and keeping them happy because the bees can, and do, leave bad beekeepers.

Of all the animals we have domesticated as livestock, bees are the ones you can most easily argue are consenting participants in their keeping.

bees will straight up leave if the conditions with the beekeeper are worse than conditions in the wild

So, not to make fun of the person who is SO INCREDIBLY WRONG about honey production,

There’s this thing that many vegans do where they just say wrong things about various animal products. Like my sister is very into fiber arts, at one point she could identify some sheep breeds at a glance, it’s a special interest for her.

One day this woman comes into her work and INSISTS that sheep are killed for their wool, that to harvest wool you literally just murder the sheep … (actually multiple people have done that since then, but this was the first time). My sister kept trying to tell her that it was more like getting a haircut, but the lady wouldn’t have it so my sister just gave up like any customer service rep would.

I have no doubt that this woman believed this. Just as I have no doubt that the bee person up there believed the weird honey lies. But what I think is interesting is that someone had to make up these lies first. And that then they get propagated.

I find it so interesting because there’s plenty of actually abhorrent things that are done in industrial farming, but in order to get people and keep people in the evangelical vegan mindset, they have to fabricate things, I assume, to keep people on the edge of being traumatized so that they’ll spread the pain they’re feeling

There's just something about watching a woman defeat scores of men who believe they are amazing at chess, and the look of dawning horror on their faces.

All right, Shizuku, go ahead and do what your heart tells you. But it’s never easy when you do things differently from everyone else. If things don’t go well, you’ll only have yourself to blame.
