Abdicate years ago instead of bending the laws that prevented him from ruling indefinitely

If you’re doing it for companionship, get male chicks so they don’t put them in the macerator.

Americans really will use any measurement before touching the metric system

20 million pound of meat recalled and a few thousand pound of drinks and mushrooms recalled. Oh what should I avoid.

Listeria outbreak trackers all show MILLIONS of pounds of meat that’s being recalled while thousands of pounds of plant based foods, where did you find that cut fruit is dangerous?

Not my opinion but in general people believe meat is good for them while evidence says it is carcinogenic and causes heart disease (the two leading causes of death in western countries).

I’m just saying, buying beans and rice is cheaper than a 60 grand electric car

If you’re both on iOS you can also just use the reminders app, that allows you to say “hi Siri, add x to my shopping list”

I can find the calculations again but even if you would drive 250km a day it would still have a 4x bigger CO2e impact to eat 200gr(typical serving size per meal) less meat per day than to switch to public transit. So if you’re not plant based, being anal about what car you drive is just ignoring the elephant farm animal in the room.

So pigs that go to heaven are still factory farmed and turned into hams?

Only if the collateral he put up goes down in value too much

Non vegans do this by default; meat grows on others.

Yea, since you called it vegetarianism but that might’ve been a spelling error

That doesn’t hold up. Doctors can’t do that to non-consenting others, and executioners can’t do that to innocent others. Animals do not consent to being killed nor can they be convicted murderers.

morally I agree with the sentiment

You should align your actions with your morals and go vegan

What do you base that on? Even if the gassing is automated, like for most pig slaughterhouses, the killing usually still happens by hand in all videos I’ve seen.

You think every slaughterhouse worker is a psychopath?

However much it’s abstracted away, a slaughterhouse worker still has to slit the animals throat.

In this day and age you can just go online and see what happens in slaughterhouses and see your “food” get gassed, lobotomized, stabbed, electrocuted or boiled alive so saying it’s okay because you didn’t know is just too naïve.

Note that vegetarianism is just a diet, not a stance against the exploitation of animals. (Eg hens are killed for eggs, baby cows are killed for milk and cows are killed for leather which are all usually still eaten/used by vegetarians)

The comment I replied to asks for several years of jail for whomever kills an animal. Why should slaughterhouse workers be exempt?
