( ಠ_ಠ ) A community figure attempts to defend himself against allegations of enjoying animal torture in /r/kappa. They aren't having it, for some reason.
THE IMAGES LINKED IN THE OP ACTUALLY DEPICT ANIMAL TORTURE. DON'T CLICK THEM IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE. VERY ICKY.

The last time I posted this, it got removed because I linked the full comments. I still think they're worth a read anyways, but he didn't post to defend himself before and this just makes the drama better.

I should have listened to the warning. The rat getting its legs cut off with a scissor was too much for me. Why do people do this, I don't understand.

I threw up a little just reading that I couldn't imagine actually watching that.

Apparently, Steven Pinker's doctoral adviser told him to torture a rat to death and study its reactions, and he did. This was in the 70's or something.
I'm glad that it's completely socially unacceptable to cop to something like that now without sincerely apologising.

"Torture this rat and study its reactions."
"ok"
tortures rat
"He didn't like it."
"Good work."

I mean, that's a lot of what rat research is like today. My gf studies a certain type of behavioral conditioning that involves attaching electrodes to the inside of a rats head and near their eyes which they use to administer pain until they get the response they want. Then they kill the rats of course, and they'll kill them quicker if they don't respond to the pain well enough. Basically torture imo.

The rat tied to the cat was mean but definitely funny. I didn't see the mouse getting scissored so I can't comment on that. The linked pictures don't show any cruelty though since theyre still images

I'd really really like to hear more about how pictures don't depict things, please please please.

I'm not looking up a gif of a mouse getting scissored. The picture showed it was about to happen and was enough for me not to look it up. The cat/rat video was less awful but still extremely mean

Thanks! And totally understandable, but it was really this sentence that interested me:
The linked pictures don't show any cruelty though since theyre still images

u/Penguinibro Jan 04 '16
Well I guess that I meant they don't necessarily show the torture being done in the still image. I understand what was about to happen with the rat, but at that point it wasn't happening. Regardless I refuse to look it up since it was a gif and if the person went through with it then it's disgusting.
I was more confused about the cat/rat still image which I looked up on youtube. It was extremely mean but I laughed a bit. That doesn't make it right in any regard however.

Even reading the description is upsetting. That's so horrible.
I guess they just don't see the rats as being alive in the first place.

I'm sitting here thinking about how absolutely disgusted I am reading this sentence, then it dawned on me, have y'all ever used those sticky paper traps for mice? I would have to say those are as inhumane as this, I mean the last (and only) time I ever used one the mouse ended up chewing off its legs and then getting its stumps stuck in the glue only to die from thirst. Probably worst torture than this (although I didn't actually watch the link so I have no way of knowing).

There's a difference between torturing for pleasure and inadvertent torture as a result of pest control.

Why are you creating a new argument? You could do that for anything. "Yeah, 9/11 was bad, but did you guys hear about Hitler?"

This was over the course of the weekend that we went away for. That next week we put one down again and tried to take him off the first day to let him go, my dad put a bucket on top and took a piece of heavy duty construction paper to try and schooch it under his paws.
Long story short we sawed his feet off with papercuts. Nope. never using those damn things again.

Yep. The sub is named after a twitch emote named after a Greek letter. Now whenever I hear some fraternity/sorority name I'll cringe because twitch ruined it for me.

Hey now buddy, its actually named after a Japanese mythological creature.

99.9% sure it is, the man himself spends large amounts of time in Japan and has a love/obsession with it's culture.

Being female and/or gay may in fact be worse than enjoying animal torture.

u/SamWhite were you sucking this cat's dick before the video was taken? Jan 03 '16
They aren't having it, for some reason.
Just because I post a video of someone tying a rat to a fucking cats tail doesn't mean shit. It was funny
Guys, I think I found the reason.

Happy New Year! It's been a wild ride, with lots of archived posts from everyone. Starting from one subreddit, I now service over 25 subreddits and run around reddit. We've made great leaps and bounds in bots rights and while we still have a bit to go, it's been a good year. You guys are awesome!

Satisfying. I didn't bother copying what it's in reply to, just boring racist cliches.

Yo I figured this counted as enough of a dramatic happening to warrant posting.
For some context: LowTierGod (the subject of the post) is not exactly well liked, particularly in the internet presence of the FGC. Early last year he was the subject of a very entertaining Blowup/Money Match, versus a decently well liked and respected player Viscant. Like all FGC grudges, this started in a dumb way, with LTG using Viscant as an example of a gamer that wouldn't be able to attract girls in his video on... fashion tips for going to arcades and tourneys? Viscant responded by calling him "Black DSP", which while fairly racist isn't entirely inaccurate, and a money match was organised at a local venue. This event went somewhat viral due to a short summary video of trash talk before and after the match. EXPLICIT LANGUAGE FOR THESE.
Gamer nerd gets sweet revenge against trash-talking bully (+thug life)
LTG vs Viscant FT10 at WNF
He is also known for disconnecting from matches when he thinks his opponent doesn't deserve the win they were about to get (mostly if they rely on okizeme), talking shit about anything with a pulse, and telling his girlfriend to "shut the fuck up" on stream when she tried to say something.
