I don't like the fact that vegans are always pushed into forming echochambers. Everybody else needs to take a hard look and recognize that maybe not abusing animals isn't so radical after all.
How do you know an animal abuser is in the room? Don't worry, they either won't shut up about bacon, or they'll make the same bland anti-vegan jokes that were old 20+ years ago.
PGP/GPG. I would like to see the web of trust take off. Also I love the aesthetic for anything that's been signed, and would like to see blog posts everywhere be nested by long blocks of random symbols.
I've read that vegans average fewer nutrient deficiencies than omnivores. People should be worrying more about getting enough whole-food fiber than they are about protein.
Maybe y'all need to consider, isn't it strange to fantasize about bringing extinct (potentially) sentient beings back into existence for the sole purpose of killing them again and carving up their body parts for sensory pleasure?
Historically, different Christian denominations used to rally behind the two political parties against each other, back when everyone was Christian. If I recall, if you had Catholics on one side, you'd usually find Protestants on the other. Of course this was also back when Republicans were the progressives, and Democrats were conservative.
Things are different now, but there is definitely still a more liberal contingent of Christians who are more in line with 'separation of church and state', and the more fundamentalist side whose schools have literally taught their children that it's their Christian duty to vote for Trump.
That's insane. There's nothing natural about being slaughtered against your will. Growing less profitable is not a natural cause of death. I don't know anything more disturbingly capitalist than to perceive intelligent living beings as commodities.
Maybe there'd be less issues if you could argue with the substance of the arguments I make, and not project your own arrogance. Whole-food plant-based cuisine requires learning a lot of unique skills, and unlearning bad habits. If all you're used to is relying on the crutch of loading your meals full of sugar, salt, and fat, then you're naturally not going to have any knowledge or experience in how to make meals that taste good and increase people's lifespans.
Maybe instead of letting your ego get in the way, you can take this as an opportunity to learn how to expand your culinary skills so you can at least know how to prepare something that heals instead of harms. Here's a few books to get started:
Thank you for informing me about these things. Normally when I buy a phone I base my decision mainly on which ones are supported by degoogled variants of Android. In the future I will stick more to used devices, and less harmful brands like Fairphone.
There is no shortage of resources to help a person transition.
