    In 1988 & 1989, before the iconic Ghost in the Shell, Masamune Shirow released a manga & film called Dominion Tank Police!, a concept that at the time seemed so outrageous that it could only appear in anime but is now a reality that many find the idea of defunding to be too radical.

    I have not watched Dominion, but I am curious as to how they arrived at the conclusion that fish do not feel pain. 1. Ask them to clarify and give relevant sources for the claim. 2. Ask them what extent they are willing to extend their argument. Clearly, they make a distinction between humans and animals. That's fine, but then, is it moral to kill and consume a sufficiently mentally impaired human? 3. If we have reasons to believe that the being can feel pain, albeit with a lack of certainty,…

    The dairy industry regularly puts cows on what the factory farmers call "rape racks", because the cows have to regularly give birth in order to constantly produce milk (mammals produce milk after giving birth). These cows are "used up" so quickly on factory farms, that they live only about 20% as long as unfarmed cows.

    I love the old OVA adaptations of the late 80’s and early 90’s like Appleseed and Dominion, but taking the gags out of Ghost In The Shell and taking the material in a more serious direction made the film hit much harder and reflect the tech-obsessed future that film audiences were facing at the time
