Used to be vegan, back when i cared about the future of humanity and the earth a little more; the math is kind of undeniable, but there’s no use pinching pennies if you won’t step back from the craps table-maybe when we collectively do, i will again. I just did without fake shit. There’s plenty of cool plants and i know my chemistry 101. Wasn’t ever missing all that much, except very high end pastry, which is beyond my skill anyway.
By short supply chain i dont mean distance, i meant like steps. Labor (and other exploitation) hours. Like, for the chips in the device im typing this on, in addition to the chips I’m currently binge eating.
vegan bingo
No i think when you’ve got slaves dying in the field or suicide nets on the factories, when the child soldiers around the mine the raw minerals come from are kept drugged 24/7, and nobody in the town near the smelter makes it to fifty, it’s a valid point. We dont treat anyone like fellow persons under capitalism, and trying to act like being vegan is automagically better is simply absurd.
Their lives are not automatically worth more for being human; we agree thats anthropocentric and fucking damn near omnicidal. They aren’t worth less either; thats racist classist and myopic.
And id laugh at the version of this cartoon with a human child too, it just wouldn’t be as legible. Might be funnier.
You sound like you need a hug. What can I say? Life has always been a scam for many, but we didn’t hear most of their stories. Now we do and it sometimes affects our mental health. I try to focus on stuff I can make a difference. I wish you all the best, take care.
