      That would be nice yes. People who eat meat are desensitized to the image. Others find it disturbing.

        Eating meat is a standard human experience, and while some have chosen not to eat meat, the fact others do shouldn’t require censorship.

        A reasonable human being can expect to see prepared food at restaurants, on people walking around while eating, on advertisements, at the grocery store, at street food vendors… And in this photo on the side of the road

        Pictures of prepared food are also work safe, because a reasonable person would encounter such sights at work lunches, catering, in the kitchen, etc.

        Therefore I don’t think it’s reasonable to ask Lemmy to censor pictures of prepared foods.

          Depends where you are from. If you are Hindu in India meat is not standard. Lots of vegetarians in that regian as well as Jain diet followers.

          Then you have South Korean dog farms, so if we were posting strung up dogs people would be freaking out of NSFW tags.

          Its all relative to desensitization.

          im not saying you have to or should be forced to NSFW tag those images, but it can be highly distruving for a large number of people.

          Like some friends love meat but if I shown them how you disembowel the rabbit or duck before cooking they’d be barfing

            Do you ever go with your friends to dinner? Do you expect them not to eat meat in front of you?

            We are here on Lemmy sharing human experiences, it’s not reasonable to ask people to censor those experiences when they’re in the range of normal acceptable experiences for most people.

      Yes, is it so bad that I don’t like seeing dead animals? I block all the non-vegan food communities for this exact reason. Lemmy probably would’ve freaked out over a picture of a skinned and fried dog, I don’t see a difference.

        Shops and general society don’t care about roast chickens on public display, it isn’t NSFW. So an NSFW tag would be inappropriate.
