tip if you want to be an activist for something, don’t compare something the opposing party is doing to sexual assault. you and i both know that isn’t a valid comparison

i shouldve known i was getting into this before i decided to make that witty comment that came to my mind on a whim

i agree that the meat industry is a disaster, and i wish there was a proper compromise that could suit everyone. many people in the us simply dont care or have this moral consciousness in the first place because, again, meat tastes good

the solution in reality is to somehow get people eating less meats as we tackle the major issues we face today. making a burger that tastes identical to a traditional burger is not easy and it is as it stands now much more expensive anywhere you go, which isnt changing without baby steps

going out to eat in rural ny with a budget, my options that i can afford dont include vegan anything barring a side salad. im not giving up what nice things i can go out and enjoy until theres more options. call me selfish idrc, i have enough to deal with as it stands. not going to give up something that does make me happy like going out to eat with family to prove a point to an industry that doesnt even know i exist

not proofreading this or anything so if i come to reword anything i said thats womp womp for me ig. thats where i stand muting this thread now

go ahead a good third of my country thinks i shouldn’t exist anyway and im sick of fighting it, im sure i taste good too

you keep trying to push people into corners about this when most ppl who eat meat do it simply because it tastes good, has good nutritional value, and is easily accessible. for my two cents in w serious manor, the meat industry is fucked up and should be regulated, since you didn’t take my initial comment as the shitpost it is

there are moral concerns but for most people (majority will never even know what lemmy is) simply don’t care and will never care, because meat tastes good

there are genuine health issues with cannibalism unlike dogs and cats, bet we taste good too given the right seasonings tho

estrogen from the get go, the rest can do whatever
