  Try telling that to the fascist Israelis committing a live stream Holocaust.

  People are either receptive or not. Activists can choose how to communicate their message. Just because it doesn’t work for you, that doesn’t mean it won’t work for others.

      I wasn’t comparing. The person before me made a generalized statement. I used an example to contradict their statement.

      Besides, the technology that came out of the Holocaust, gas chambers, without a doubt is used on a large scale today in exterminating domesticated animals. See this trailer for a documentary whose creator place cameras inside a pig gas chamber.

      And fuck you. Let me guess, you’re someone who doesn’t compared the Holocaust to what’s happening in Palestine because it isn’t 1-to-1

        Nah, I’m pro Palestine. I just think comparing the genocide to animal slaughter is a little tone deaf.

    … in threads like this, people like you always get downvoted, and people saying spreading the message via exaggeration doesn’t work gets upvoted. Unless you think the only people who matter don’t vote, the data (and common sense) is against you.

      You cite data. What’s your data that proves that singular attack vectors at persuading populations works best, compared to multiple vectors?

      And what common sense? Eating meat, and using animals in general for our purposes, is serving as one of the largest contributors to climate change, to water overuse, to nitrogen and fertilizer runoff that kills ocean life, to heart disease (red meat specifically), and to cancer (UN classifies red meat as a carcinogen).

      Seems to me that your “common sense” is willful ignorance at the pleasure of others’ suffering, both on an acute and obtuse level.

      I do agree with you that this is common. Most societies today are not vegan. Hell, most aren’t pro-Palestinian, or at least the governments aren’t. That latter example is changing, thankfully.

        Common sense is when you come at people like this, they don’t listen. That’s why I won’t read your comments and probably no one else will either.
