  I have an effective plan. Everyone stops buying meat, the supermarkets lose money buying it, they cancel their contracts, and the animal agriculture industry goes bankrupt. If you won’t do your part in the plan, that sounds like a you problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, you should be kinder and more mature. It’s really inconsiderate of you not to help end factory farms

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, there’s too many immature people who won’t work as part of a team, and instead will only help if their personal actions have huge solo effects. If you people would grow up and help out, we could actually get stuff done, but instead you just complain and seek comfort

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  “boo hoo, I’m one person in a population of billions and I don’t feel like I matter” grow the fuck up. Stop expecting to be special.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They hire smart people to run the risk reward analysis. If you reduce the payout, they’ll place smaller bets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  But they’re gambling their livelihoods on the fact that enough people like you will. Their action is contingent upon their beliefs about the future. Your future.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  But animal farmers know that people like you will buy meat at the supermarket, so where you say I’m not responsible, you are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So what if John Smith pays an assassin to kill you, and then I donate to John’s GoFundMe to say thanks for getting you killed? Am I responsible then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well then I don’t see the relevant difference between what you’re doing and assassination contracts

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I thought murder was wrong because dying hurts, not because it’s a secret.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s too late to prevent murder from existing, so if I pay that assassin a million dollars to murder you, I don’t see how that changes the state of the world meaningfully

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I bet more meat is sold next year in the timeline where you live than in the timeline where you die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Trying to get meat caused animal agriculture. Stop trying to get meat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So you’re saying your purchasing of cows contributes towards animal agriculture

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you think if everyone in the world stopped buying meat, that the slaughterhouses would keep killing cows? I’m going to assume you don’t think that, and I’m going to assume you believe the slaughterhouses kill cows because people buy them.

  So let me know if you DON’T think that your and others’ purchasing of meat causes animal agriculture. Because I think you agree that your actions and others’ actions cause it.

  Is that what Gaara kept his sand in?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So you’re saying if I paid an assassin a million dollars to take your life, I wouldn’t have any blame for your murder, because the assassin has free will?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I guess that’s true if you shoplift. Shoplifting is fine. Just don’t give money to factory farmers or their distribution networks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Forced impregnation isn’t rape, forced labour isn’t slavery, and forced death isn’t murder with you carnists. What else, war is peace and ignorance is strength? We’ve always been at war with eastasia?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Animal consumption causes factory farming, and farming causes chickens to develop stress-induced autophagia. I don’t like it when the chickens are so unhappy they eat themselves and need to be debeaked. We should all stop doing things that cause that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re telling me motive makes a bad thing okay to do under deontology? In other words, it’s okay for a deontologist to murder someone if they have a cool motive?

  I dunno I thought Kant said you should never do bad things even if you have a good reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But you didn’t explain why it’s a false equivalence, because you don’t have any good reasons

  Are you a troll? Are you giving bad carnist arguments on purpose to help the vegan cause?

  Great job!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a foreign object in the vagina used to inject semen. It’s exactly the same. An artificial insemination device is an artificial penis. It’s designed to do what a penis does.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In what context? Animals? Are you saying a guy sticking his dick in his pet dog is a situation without any consent problems?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So putting semen up a vagina without consent isn’t rape?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cows produce more milk if they’re forcibly impregnated every year. Supporting cow milk is supporting rape, this is a fact.
