Ok oh enlightened laughing one

Isn’t hierba buena mint? Everything else must be hierba neutra then

👉👈

None of my business

“I have no principles because people take cruises and I believe nobody else should have principles either.”

I believe it’s all gonna collapse too. That doesn’t mean I cry in the drive thru line waiting for a bacon burger then go on Lemmy and build a facade that I’m enlightened just because I understand the extremely simple fact that humans fucked up the planet. And then “laugh” at people with principles as if having principles means they “don’t get it,” when the modern meat industry, for one, is an absolute horror show that causes so much present harm beyond emissions to not just the animals.

You’re hilariously inconsistent too for someone who “gets it.” In your other comment you’re telling people to focus energy where it matters, but here now you’re saying nothing matters and that “we lost.”

People who “get it” don’t go around telling people that they're laughing and that they get it.

Maybe resolve your inner conflicts first before you tell people what to do and what not do to, oh enlightened laughing one.

Lol this person is obsessed with bringing up this point.

“Shit, the meat industry is all types of fucked up. Maybe we should cut down.”

“Have you ever been on a plane though? If so, everything you just said cancels out. All your points are moot. All your effort is for nothing. I am very intelligent.”

Sorry, how? By encouraging people to not care and saying that eventually a hero politician in a small country will be the change they wish to see in the world?

Trust me, I get it more than you. I try to live with principles instead of just thinking whether “it’ll matter” and being a coward because billionaires ride jets and rich people take cruises.

You’re “just laughing” and thinking you’re above me, explaining to me your idiocy as if I don’t see how pathetic you actually are.

High IQ answer

Because eating meat 5x a day at artificially low prices is the wrong thing to do and is a reflection of a poor culture

God what an insufferable person and shit communicator

Your edit makes me wish I could downvote this again. Your flawed logic can be used to excuse a number of ridiculous and fucked up shit. “Folks just don’t get it.” Fuck off with that bullshit.

It’s not apathy it’s pragmatism? But then you rant about how nothing matters.

Better to spend time and energy elsewhere? So you spend time and energy convincing others to be as apathetic and weak as you. So weak you needed to desperately justify your apathy to yourself and to others by editing your comment.

Don’t wanna eat less meat? Go for it dawg. Eat it up. Don’t give a fuck about deforestation? The fucked up conditions animals are raised in? The pollution and everything that comes with it? Just because cruises are wasteful? You do you, big dawg.

But to tell everyone else to not give a fuck either is just some absurd fucked up apathetic shit. It’s not pragmatic. It’s so obvious you lie to yourself. The audacity to say “folks just don’t get it.”

Seriously. Some people here are so happy they’ve found the “perfect” justification for their apathy and inaction.

I didn’t realize flying was destroying ocean ecosystems by overfishing and deforesting the Amazon.

All of this can be bad. All of it can be called out. You don’t have to cancel one with the other. You don’t have to call people who point at the meat problem “shills.”

I honestly don’t know what your message is. Rich people shouldn’t fly but they can eat meat? Neither? Poor people should eat meat but not fly? Both? Neither? Middle class people?

Plenty of not poor people eat too much meat

It wouldn't be nothing and you know that. If you simplify the meat problem to just emissions, sure, it might look small in comparison to cruises, etc. But if you look at it as the multifaceted problem it really is, then reducing consumption will have several effects. Especially, as you exaggerated, if you forced everyone you know to do the same.

The last thing we need is people advocating for these "fuck it" attitudes. Should we really excuse better choices and better directions of behavior and culture just because there's a "small" effect? I feel like this line of logic can be used to excuse some pretty dark shit.

The real part of the test that determines whether or not you’re an idiot

I think it’s pretty clear you said individuals shouldn’t feel responsible for any of this

Whatever helps you sleep at night lol
