Nothing dickish about making your point, that’s what we’re here for.
I agree that we need effective measures, in terms of combatting climate change there are few things that are more efficient than eliminating animal agriculture. For there to even be a long term, at all, drastic measures are needed in the short term.
But at this point, it feels like LARPing to bother thinking about, climate change. Not a lot of room for the issue in the flooded zone.
Hehe yeah, I think tofu is sooo good though! :P
“We need to eat” rhymes poorly with climate wrecking animal farming, which not only speeds up harvest devastating warming and flooding – it also consumes a lot of food and uses enormous amounts of farmable land.
Poor people are not in any way immune to the apocalypse and will have to change their lifestyles one way or the other.
You’re championing dying with a belly full of cheeseburgers over tofu and a shot at long term survival. It’s not progressive.
Mr. Picture Perfect Elite White Male, that will surely show them anti-establishment folks that the big profane orange billionaire isn’t the only game in town
There should be a modern version of this. Imagine the president having his own platform where he could write messages to the world, just like your uncle doese on Facebook! It would be so good!
I think it bears considering that the farmers’ work was directly connected to their own survival and welfare. They didn’t have to sit through meetings on the Company’s new ”values” or do telemarketing for pump and dump AI or crypto scams, while the world burns.
They may have had it harder, but many of the most sadistic forms of existential anguish, and lack of meaning, had yet to be invented.
Yep, there is that, no way around it
