Joe Rogan Explains Hunting to Russell Brand

What about murder or rape tho? There are plenty of things people feel strongly about and can’t just be like “well u just feel differently, I don’t know everything”. And I’m not saying that invalidates the idea or what he’s saying, cause I agree with him, but it only applies to things that aren’t serious enough to matter like that.

If things cant be hunted(wether or not it has the numbers to make hunting it sustainable) then those animals have to depend on other people.

I told her my life had gotten extremely busy right after the last hunt and that my father(my hunting buddy) had a stroke shortly after and we'd both taken a deer that year and that a lot of the meat had went to waste because I was gone working a lot and my father while he was recovering from his stroke had forgotten to give it away like we had decided and that I loved deer meat but I wasn't going to kill one if was going to end up freezer burnt. I asked her why she was vegan? She told me that she was extremely sensitive but was outgrowing it some and was thinking about becoming a vegetarian and then we went back to our other conversations.

Not only that, hunting is used to provide food for people while dog fighting is literally for the dopamine release of watching gore and blood pour out of animals.

It's evil. Money sent from murder is irrelevant. It's about the other animals, not some fucking money. You're still murdering a living thing. The ends don't justify the means. It's evil. Joe Rogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Shawn Michaels, Brock Lesnar, Goldust, and Ted DiBiase Jr. are murderers. Fishing and other hunting is murder. Other animals' lives aren't your playthings. Leave other animals alone. Other animals aren't toys to dress up and pose for your amusement, or tools for you to use as you please. Leave other animals alone. Humans have a serious lack of empathy when it comes to other animals. They're not mindless machines. Their emotions aren't muted. Human ego is disgusting. Only animals of human-level intelligence are capable of evil. Humans aren't more special or important than other animals. You're not better by definition. Fuck you. There are far too many animals in orphanages, many kill orphanages, some gas chamber orphanages, to justify breeding/buying from breeders. They're #NotProperty to be bought/sold. Adopt. They'll show you how full of love life is. Save their life, and they'll save yours. It's not euthanasia. It's not done for their benefit. It's murder. Imagine the outrage if humans who weren't being adopted were killed. It's no different for other animals. Other animals don't have "vets". They have doctors, and health and medical care. Just like humans. There's no distinction. There'd be outrage if different humans had different doctors and terms depending on their race. It's no different for other animals. That's speciesism. People spend money on war rather than helping other animals. Medical care should be socialised, like humans have. Caring for other animals isn't a chore, it's a duty and privilege. Other animals don't belong in the entertainment industry. Not only is it extremely stressful for them, and wild animals are abused until they submit to human will, but how dare you deprive them of their life. Elephants that do tricks and give rides aren't happy. They do it out of fear of what happens if they refuse. Swimming with dolphins isn't a good activity. It's extremely stressful for them, and leads to them catching diseases. They're viewed as tools for profit, nothing else. Other apes, monkeys, and horses used on cards smiling because they're happy. Other apes and monkeys do what's called a "fear grimace", while horses smile in submission. They're not happy, they're abused. Freedom is what matters in life. You wouldn't trade freedom for comfort and safety, and you have no right to force that on other animals. Experimenting on other animals is vile. How dare you cause such immense suffering and murder. You're birthing them to torture them. What a miserable existence. That constant, unending torture is unimaginable for most people. Fireworks and other explosions are horrible. Other animals, like cats, dogs, and birds, get absolutely terrified by fireworks. Causing such intense, unending fear is unjustifiable.

Balloons, Chinese lanterns, glitter, sequins, and microbeads don't decompose. They stay in the environment, and end up being swallowed by other animals. Having human-level intelligence doesn't somehow stop you being an animal. That makes no sense, whatsoever. It's specifically because you're an animal that you can have human-level intelligence. It is a trait of animals because an animal has it: humans. Everything we do is, by definition, animalistic, because we are animals. Everything humans do is by definition animalistic, because humans are animals. There's no distinction. Being an animal isn't an insult. It's awesome. It's what lets you be you. Intelligence doesn't make one animal more special than another. That's just a trait humans have. It's no better than running fast or jumping high. Evolution has no will. It's not trying to make other animals more human-like. A slug is as evolved as we are. A slug got it right. It doesn't make you inherently better at all, and saying that totally disregards how stupid and evil humans are. It's nonsensical. That's human ego. The second an alien race arrives that's more intelligent than we are, you people will move the goalposts for what it means to be more special. You say it not because it's true, but because it currently benefits you. You can't own another living thing. They're not consumer goods to be bought and sold. They're not property. They're above monetary value. They're not toys for your amusement, or tools for you to use as you please. There'd be outrage if humans were treated like property. It's no different for other animals. That's speciesism. We're not their owners, we're their parents. Pet isn't an insult. That's horrible. A pet is an animal of another species, in your family, that you care for. They're your children, and brothers, and sisters, and nieces, and nephews, and cousins, not some ornament to have around for novelty, that you only pay attention to when you're bored.

I’m not a fan of hunting but Rogans explanation makes sense. He’s right that if you’re really hunting older animals you could be saving them from an unpleasant end. Animals in the wild do not die peacefully in their sleep of old age.

R. Brand interviewed Jordan Peterson, it was an even better example of this.

That's not to say he will just tolerate people whose positions are indefensible, but generally he is extremely open to honest discussion.

[@nightreign2240]

The thing I wish joe would have whent into a little more detail with is how it's perfectly okay to have a huge amount empathy for what you are hunting, any hunter worth their salt never wants the animal to suffer. The best hunters and the best marksmen feel the most pride when dropping big game from over 150 yards away and hitting the sweet spot for instant death. No pain, is what every hunter should strive for. Now that being said, I have messed up badly before when I was 11 and I shot a deer in the wrong spot and it wasn't instant death, I had to finish it with a knife and I cried, but we had meat for the winter. From then on I've practiced with a larger and more accurate caliber rifle with a scope that from 150 yards away I can shoot a grouping pattern about the size of the palm of your hand . I plan on making the grouping smaller. So hopefully I won't ever miss the instakill spot again. I also believe that any animal that is dying a long painful death is flooding it's body with adrenaline and other chemicals that make the meat taste no where near as good as when it's instant. Kind of natures way of saying you suck at this, do better next time.

I loved watching it and I consider both Joe and Russell to be intelligent men and they both made great points and I respect them both(I also think that the older he gets, the more Russell Brand is starting to look like the comic book writer Alan Moore). l loved the point Joe made about hunting in an era prior to there being refrigeration as well as the kind of large-scale agriculture that we have now and how hard it was to get food. It's similar to how when the founding fathers of the American revolution wrote the U.S. Constitution, when they wrote it, if you didn't hunt, it meant you didn't EAT. I can respect both sides of the arguments that they were making. I have never gone hunting but I know people who do hunt so I think that one of these days, I might have to try it.

[@Scoring57]

Glen Lehane If you're going to cry about judgement and grandstanding aren't you contributing to the problem? Cause are opinions all the same and self expression. Why is "judging" where some people want to cut off their "free speech" fanaticism? Let me say whatever I want but don't judge me? If the "differing opinions" mean a worse life for you or an attack on your humanity as it so often is with the many hateful ideas in our society, it's not just some inconsequential opinion.

We hunt as a family and have not purchased beef in two years, relying on the elk we harvested. As a hunter I am excited when we harvest an animal but there is also a sense of sadness. That empathy Brandt feels is real and many hunters feel it as well but we cherish eating our elk for a year and thank the family member who harvested it. I cannot argue against a vegan who is against hunting, that logic is theirs and it is sound. I on the other hand will never have patience for someone who eats meat from the store and is against hunting. They must have never driven by a factory farm, where animals live covered in there own feces.

Sourced locally reduces corporate interest's hold on meat sales, and if we did this large scale we could change things back to the way they used to be, and make small ranches more profitable again!
