Aircraft use tungsten ballast plates. I know it requires hardware, but would that have been viable?

Or the orbital mirrors fell and destroyed three domes, but we’re going in the right direction. We’re gonna rebuild this place.

Shoulda just called them Boot Scoots

Women are you doing okay with the inherent exploitation of someone across the globe.

…Huh.

The downside: You have to shit them yourself.

They do? Oh… oh, I might need therapy.

G’dora

Does anybody ewse feew wike having a giggiw when I say the name… Biggus Dickus?

Of all the entities that exist on the internet, this is by far one of them.

I keep a little bottle of tanning lotion under my pillow for the Tanman in case he comes to town.

Played so much Assassin’s Creed, I too wanted to jump off the top of a building.

Strange way to call yourself out, but you do you.

The self-licking boot.

It’s the inability to see the forest for the trees. We were raised in a capitalist economic system, as were all of our past family members. The failings of capitalism appear to be the failings of human nature. In reality, meta analysis of multiple studies on human greed show that people will be inherently more kind to each other than be cruel. Quick search will bring up many articles on these studies. Plus, exchanges in material goods within communities where money hadn’t been invented would show that people didn’t barter, they gave their goods away to their neighbors, and the good deed would be remembered and reciprocated in times of need. You can look up “Gift Economy” in Wikipedia.

Dairy contains a morphine-like substance so baby calves are drawn to it. Cheese is literally addictive.

While many scientists believe cats to be obligate carnivores, one study attempted to show that many of the studies conducted in plant-based diets to not show any detrimental effects, when the test wasn’t conducted poorly or there was already a selection bias in place.

Just something to consider. This doesn’t cement veganism for domestic felines, but it does show that better studies need to be conducted.

Mainstream media would kill to get the scoop on this.

No, the “lesson” you’re trying to teach is that just because the movement isn’t popular, it isn’t worth doing. You’re making logical fallacies to equate our morality-based struggle to something like needing gasoline to get to work because you refuse to agitate for better public transit or buying a fucking bicycle. Not only that, but your methodology is flawed, and I merely stated as such in your irrelevant context just to make a point. Your apathy to change doesn’t mean it isn’t worth doing. Slavery was considered a normal part of everyday life until people agitated against it. People had no qualms destroying the environment until people agitated against it. Animal abuse was rampant in the past, and now we’ve enacted laws against it. Your argument is trash because you are so apathetic to non-human suffering, you couldn’t possibly fathom the notion that we could do things better and treat others better. Instead of being the ones exploiting, we can be caretakers. All social movements start out small and slow. Once they hit a threshold point, they explode into the collective conscience. So yeah, I’m going to keep agitating to remind people that they’re the ones propping up this veritable holocaust where we murder billions of land animals every year for sensory pleasure, when a better way of living has been available to us for well over a hundred years now. Just that people use your hollow arguments to bemoan that it sounds like it’s not worth doing because it’s “too hard.” It’s not too hard, you’re just selfish. OR, you could opt to actually dabble in empathy and get in on the ground floor. You’d get to say you were vegan before it was cool.

Correlation != causation. Left unchecked, production will inevitably see some increase due to WHAT?! Increased population. However, anticipated growth hasn’t met expectations. Gee, almost like there’s a reason…

After that, I wonder how much production would decrease if we stopped giving animal agriculture their multi-billion dollar shot in the arm every year from the USDA versus the few million that plant alternatives gets. Wonder what would happen if we reversed that…

You’re really gonna tell me that meat production will be unchanged as more people have been adopting a plant-based diet. Good thing you don’t run Tyson, they’ve been having to close meat processing plants due to decreased demand.

Petroleum production decreases as we implement alternatives. Are you really going to tell me this isn’t the case? 🤣

ETA: You know, for someone named commie, you’re spouting a lot of neoliberal nonsense. “Ah, no sense trying to change anything even if we don’t agree with it.”
