@shauny I care too much for humans to want to take away their dietary choice and agency.There is a case to be made about slaughterhouses, to kill the animal in a more efficient and painless way, and overall improve the infrastructure so animals don't just breathe each other's sweat and shit so employees don't feel bad.I think the best recourse to reduce meat consumption is to teach people how to farm with animals (say a chicken run) and how to cull the animal properly. It would make people more conscious of the stakes that come with meat production and perhaps buy meat from places that respect their own livestock. The complete disconnection between the product in stores and what it took to make it sure enables awful treatment of livestock. And I doubt a simple government message on the label is enough. It takes seeing it.My mom loves animals, and I even mentioned to her what it takes to kill a whole chicken for meat and the difference of methods between a family owned coop and a meat industry. Because she never had to do the killing herself, she doesn't mind buying those from the store and would never take the knife to cull it the painless way. That's the disconnect.Another thing is, Veganism is not always the most ethical way, despite what I constantly hear. If you are Utilitarian and Anti-specieist then I guess the lives of the many outweigh the lives of the few, but it's a position not everyone adheres to.

@shauny @fartkart I'm not making a case about sustaining overpopulation, because the answer lies between genocide, eugenics and forcing people to live in pods to free agricultural land. Denmark is trying to force farmers out of their lands and pressure them with Climate goals to take their livestock away: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/jul/21/emotion-and-pain-as-dutch-farmers-fight-back-against-huge-cuts-to-livestockMost often, vegans pretend to have the moral high ground because they care about animals more than us. Either because they claim to reduce pain or death.

@thatguyoverthere @ehhh @shauny Conveniently doesn't mention supplements too.You could technically skip eating meat, vegetables and mushrooms by just getting the right amount of supplements for your daily needs.

@thatguyoverthere @LexiconDevil @shauny Vegetable oils have unsaturated fats that are highly unstable and can cause tissue inflammation. The cause of it is a acid that forms following the exposure of the oil to high temperature. That's why you always change frying oil after use.

@shebang @cee Take your time, I'm sure it's just transitory. Unlike inflation.

@shebang I was today years old when I learned you had a Youtube channel.I knew about Odyssey but your webpage doesn't have a link to your yt channel. I suspect it's because you don't want overly political stuff on there.

@nyx @cel I'd never bring myself to write a tirade that merciless but it sure as fuck doesn't take away the funny I felt while reading this critical 195 emotional damage.

@Hyolobrika @bot I'll follow your logic through and through: If fighting and initiating violence for what you deem morally correct is "ok", then it's only fair that if you think the 2020 election results are rigged and Democracy is in danger you should riot and start throwing hands with the Capitol police because it is the morally "ok" thing to do.There is a high likelihood you didn't think of the situation as such and immediately called out the Capitol protesters because you don't agree with the premise of their actions or the methods (which were peaceful, protesters didn't kill anyone during the events).The difference? The side you're on.Antifa is not "ok" morally in an objective sense. I think they should all be killed for the domestic terrorist pieces of shit they are. If you want an equal society you build it from the bottom up or join an existing one. Twin Oaks and other off grid collectives achieve exactly this and they have done magnitudes of order more for those who had it with the system than Antifa, BLM, Proud Boys and other violent militias ever did. And they did so without dropping a single drop of blood.I'm sure there are mislead members who thought they are saving democracy by joining a terrorist organization but it doesn't excuse the fact they followed orders and dealt a huge amount of damage to the neighborhoods they riot in. Just like with Nazis, you have moral agency and therefore can quickly realize what you are doing is fucked up and leave or carry on and keep your head in the sand because a superior told you to.

@Hyolobrika @cjd @bot I don't advocate for violence and intolerance but I do have a frame of exception.If someone doesn't want a civil discussion, forbids his followers to engage in a healthy discourse and organizes to commit violence against those they disagree with, that's Kowabunga for me.There is not much ideologically that separates Antifa from the collectivists that go off-grid. The former actively wants me dead, the latter wants to be left the fuck alone.
