Every yacht is a rich asshole yacht.

My Logitech mouse is around 15 years old now. Still works perfectly. Pretty sure it has no software.

Currently 40.2 TB, around 1800 movies, 430 TV shows and 4600 albums.

Lobbying.

The perceived position of power will always attract a certain type of people, so yeah, you'll see this here too.

But… The post is already encouraging people to eat meat.

I think you misunderstand the post then.

The post is pointing out the hypocracy that killing an animal for pleasure is generally regarded as wrong, except when it comes to the sense of taste.

It's very much a pro-vegan post.

I translated the name, try searching for "Verein Türkischer Dönerhersteller in Europa".

But really the name is self explanatory.

The dish "Döner Kebab" was invented in Germany by Turkish migrants and became very popular. Now a group from Turkey is trying to enforce their definitions and regulations of what a Döner Kebab should be on our dish.

This has nothing to do with German people or government denying power to German-Turks. This is German Turks fighting back against Turkish-Turks trying to interfere with their buisnes.

Like image some activists in Italy would demand that the US government ban the word pizza unless it's refering to italian-style pizza.

The opposition to the propsel is comming from the "Association of Turkish kebab makers in Europe" ...

I don't think anyone really get's offended over it. It's more like being pestered in by one of those clipboard carrying solicitors.

No we didn't. Scholz just said so yesterday.

What makes them so special nowadays?

I guess they are much emptier these days which might make them somewhat bearable.

It’s not an echo chamber.

Right, it's more like a reverberation chamber.

I'd say they are quite rare, I've only been to one once. I won't be going back. I'm not even sure if it was a bad restaurant or if I just don't like mexican food. But it was bad.

Well, I wouldn't say vegans are common anywhere (where I've lived). It's like 1-2% of the population.

And while my point indeed was totally anecdotal, it goes beyond just knowing people. There are other hints. I still often visit family in my childhood home area and even today you can notice a different in marketing. Restaurants there often don't even mark meals as vegan on the menu, while restaurants in big cities often have an entire section for vegan meals.

Also supermarkets specialising on bio food and such (our equivilant of like wholefoods) aren't present at all. You'd have to drive like 30km to get to one. Also in regular supermarkets meat replacement options are either not availible or poorly stocked.

So I'm not sure if it's a result or a cause, but I'd say it's much harder to be vegan in a rural area, just from a logistical standpoint. And you get a lot more local farmers markets, so you also have access to fresh and relativly cheap meat.

I've tried to search for some statistics about the distribution of vegans in urban and rural areas, but didn't find anything useful. I did find some quora and reddit threads with quite a few replies of people that have similar expirences to mine.

If you have any, please share.

Ok buddy.

Nope, the post doesn't say.

• Don't be on an instance where he's admin.
• Block his accounts

That should do it.

Which part of your brain made you think this post is a science meme?

If i can’t stop them biting me, the next best thing is to stop them biting me a second time.

But you can stop (most of) them!

My strategy is to deploy their natural enemies into my house. That includes a ground level strike team of two cats that will attack and kill anything that crawls and for support from above you want to corners between walls and ceiling covered with as many spiders as possible.

I've only been bitten once this year!
