    The answer is yes, the meat is available. But it depends on the region you're in. I know at least in Shandong, where my wife lives, it is available. And personally, I care very little. I would absolutely not turn down a plate of dog meat if my inlaws served it for dinner. I've always been of the opinion that it is hypocritical to place your dogs on a pedestal and casually look away at how livestock is treated when cows and pigs are also relatively intelligent animals that have to be suffering in the mass-production meat industry. Heck, I've owned chickens before and even they seemed decently aware of their surroundings. Enough to choose a nesting location and come to my back door every day to ask for food. And also call for help when a cat was sneaking into my yard. So if you're against eating dogs because you have some emotional attachment to them, take a look at the rest of the standard livestock first and consider being a vegetarian if you hate it. At least that way, your hate for eating animals is fair.

    It's not just Chinese thing, it's generally ASIAN. You can see dog meat sold in Korea and other Asian countries too. If someone wishes to buy it - they can, if they don't want - they won't. But generally, it's available. Not to mention other "exotic food" sold in special markets that are even worse than dog, in my opinion.

    • @lolturtle13
      @lolturtle13 Před rokem

      Poisoned with fertilizer? lmao. The thing that's made to feed crops? Maybe you meant pesticides? Because if that's the case, maybe. But heavy use of pesticides is a problem with food in the US as well. The real concern is crops grown with water that's been contaminated by the heavy industry in China. The farmers don't intentionally contaminate their crops. It's just the rivers and groundwater may have already been polluted. However, the extent of the problem varies and I would not be that concerned about being poisoned living in any tiered city in China.

  • @chengfeihuang8192
    @chengfeihuang8192 Před rokem +4

    The pollution situation in China depends on the city. Shanghai is now mainly focused on finance and technology industries and does not have many heavily polluting factories, so the air quality is relatively good. However, in the northern parts, especially in some heavy industrial cities, pollution is still severe. My friend in Beijing told me that the pollution in Beijing is very severe.

    A big logic mistake here Choquito: Eat dog is not sth wrong and bad, and we should fully respect their right to eat dogs just as we asked them to respect our right to love dogs.
    There is no difference between eating dogs and eating chickens, lamps, fishes, why should where be a difference? Just cuz dogs are more cute?
    They are all creatures in the nature world and the human beings are logically able to kill any other creatures in need and necessary(in human beings' perspective, which is u and me).
    There is no such a "equal" for the nowadays world, if anyone really want to talk about real equal for all creatures then we should travel back to ancient time where man and other animals "equally" eat each other, not like now that there will be a consequence for a lion or tiger just cuz they attacked a human in emergency(from their perspective) and no consequence for human if its the other way around .
    And further more I have not hear any news about Chinese gov are doing anything to opposite the dog-eating(which u mentioned in the video, and I would appreciate it if u can share the source, and they should NOT do that in anyway cuz its NOT sth wrong that need to be stopped.
    Dont let ys fall in that WEST white-left logic, its their logic, but not the WORLD logic.

    Thanks for clarifying some misconceptions for China.
    Most of points are true, but regarding eating dogs, I would like to say that WE CHINESE DO EAT DOGS. Given the dominaance of west culture and value influence, eating dog becomes a "Shame" for Chinese. But I can say loudly that we eat dogs. and we have been eating for more than 2000 years.
    Fan Kuai (242-189 BC) was a military general of the early Western Han dynasty. In his early days, he was a butcher and specialised in preparing dog meat.
    I grew up in Hubei Province, in my childhood, dog meats were normal food. because people were very poor at that time, very few chance to eat any meat, dog meat is a reasonable meat source.
    However, nowadays, eating dog meat is not that popular but still popular in some region, because most of Chinese have very diverse meat sources. Personally I haven't eaten dog meats in last 30years.
    From culture perspective, why should we feel shameful becasue of eating dogs? do westers feel shameful for eating beef because Indians think cows are holly animal?

There are many more Muslims living in China than Hindus. And they also have a long history. I literally just did a quick google search of mosques in Shanghai and immediately came up with 5 names. So I don't know what research this video maker has to do. He can just hop on the rail and go to any of the mosques. No one will kick him out.

I know. every culture is deferent from other and so is their food. Beside who eats what and why is nobody's business. If somebody don't like, don't eat, nobody is forcing anybody.

    When talking about the freedom in China, it means that China is not that free compared with those advanced and democratic contries. It refers to the degree of control exerted by state/government over society, and in this term China is obviously an authoritarian regime, so this means China is not that free. Also the freedom of speech is definitely a part of freedom, I have no idea why you say it's not necessarily. (BTW you do agree that China has no freedom of speech?).
    You might have experienced the lockdown in Shanghai last year. Did you feel free at that time? Do you think enforcing the strict zero-policy was resonable, regardless of people's rights and freedom?
    I used to live in Shanghai, and I agree with you that Shanghai is one of the best cities in China. You are lucky that you live in Shanghai, almost the most open, advanced, civilised city in China. But it's just Shanghai, and doesn't represent whole part of China.

    The Chinese do eat dog meat, but in modern society, dog meat is a very uneconomical source of protein, far inferior to pork and beef in the industrialized breeding industry, so even though it is very rare to eat dog meat in China today, it does not mean that it does not exist. Ancient China has always been an agricultural society, not as dependent on dogs as nomads. In ancient China, cattle were not allowed to be slaughtered. On the contrary, dog meat could be eaten.
