  I feel like everyone that heard that theory stopped to think about it. Maybe some people took it seriously, but at the least people entertained the idea for a second.

  Imo, Kant’s principles don’t really apply in this scenario, the Categorical Imperative applies to human-to-human treatment. Kant’s primary principle is act as such it would become universal law. Animal consumption is already a universal law.

  Murder (of a human) is wrong because when applied universally, then society collapses. Theft is wrong because when applied universally, the right of property, and therefore society, collapses.

  Animal consumption doesn’t cause societal collapse.

  Thoughts?

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

  People aren’t ignoring climate change though, and I would generally think that’s because it’s an existential threat. You’re comparing apples and oranges.

  Speedrun comparing anti-veganism to the Holocaust any% WR

  I mean I would say they probably don’t know because they aren’t sapient, but sure.

  You aren’t going to change industrialized factory farming abuse by berating and lecturing people on Lemmy. People are just going to be more annoyed by your cause. I don’t even entirely disagree with you, to be honest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you actually comparing climate change to animal abuse? Lol

  At the very least I’d say people are significantly more aware and receptive to climate change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Look, I don’t disagree with your point necessarily, but you’re not winning over literally anyone in this thread. It’s just not happening.

  Nobody ever has been convinced that dairy is rape and meat is murder by some Lemmy user saying “dairy is rape” and following up with “because it is”.

  Most obviously, your primary argument is consequentialism, which many people just don’t see as a valid form of ethics. Many people subscribe to deontology instead, and so they don’t see it as rape because they are not obtaining sexual gratification from artificial insemination or drinking milk.

  Non-euclidian swimming, my favorite

  I would say it’s both that and also the world just not caring about them, and misogynistic red pill communities pretending to care and have all the answers

  Because everyone does. NASA is apolitical, they just want science messaging to reach as many people as it can, which I agree with. Hell, if that meant posting on 4chan I’d agree with that lmao

  No no it’s more interesting if it’s for evil corporate reasons! Lmao

  Yeah 220V is more dangerous because it doubles the current going through your body.

  I = V / R

  From my experience, discord might have one of the best chat searches out there. It’s stupid fast and you can search metadata like time, sender, attachments, etc.

  Yeah, I’ve found it funky but usable. Unfortunately they resolved a bug where you always show online if you’re on a laptop in balanced power mode and it’s plugged in lol. That was a great feature
