  • but they are linking a lot of outside sources. That's what I mean by "backing their claims up", studies about covid, about the ukraine war, about Israel, it's not just someone making a claim and then everyone is nodding along.

    What I am saying is they were able to completely upend the way I see the world and you just can't do that by claiming thengs and linking to some other claims you make.

  • American foreign politics affects almost everyone on the globe. They have military bases everywhere and the dollar still is the currency used in a lot of international trade, although that's changing.

    If they didn't want to be scrutinized, chastised or made fun of then they shouldn't be in the empire building business.

  • The bourgeoisie make no difference between me and the cow, except for the commodity we produce. They will push to extract our laborforce at the exact cost it requires to sustain it. The cow is a comrade and fighting for their rights is fighting the system that looks to enslave us as well. If you can't see how the methods in husbandry are used against us then have a look at the holocaust.

  • Here is another one: That meat on your plate comes from an animal that could feel. It had a whole life full of feelings and dreams. It might've liked some food but disliked other, it probably had friends, it had a mom and a dad, it was loved. Then they killed it, shipped it, you cooked it and ate it.

  • My comment poking fun at the ridiculousness of double standard in tone policing got removed for trolling so let me be more explicit:

    There were already very rude jokes and comments about vegans in this thread. Rudeness against vegans is the norm and played for laughs, but god forbid a vegan returns the favor then suddenly everyone is crying for more civility.

    Also sincerely held beliefs should be communicated sincerely. No ones going to believe the dude that says "I think what you're taking part in is a horrific injustice carried out on an industrial scale but to each their own I guess. Lets agree to disagree."

  • I don't know you and if you're being sincere about your harm reduction then that's great. There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, the clothes I wear I made from human slavery, the produce from the exploitation of migrant workers. But people want to be blind to this so they can enjoy their treats in peace while there is a world of suffering around us, that's what gets me so riled up. The wilful ignorance.

  • If one believes that the mother losing her newborn cries about it for days and that this is happening on an industrial scale that person will be very indignant about such a horrific injustice. That's what convinced me, this is a real injustice and not being angry about it would be insincere
