you’re still eating more of them by eating animal products…

not necessarily. we mostly feed livestock parts of plants we don’t or can’t eat. so while spinach is human-edible, the spinach fed to chickens is not handled in a way that keeps it safe for human consumption. by feeding it to livestock, we are conserving resources.

this is a strawman

the problem lies in media literacy. it’s not only solvable, but it’s “solved”. taking away privacy is not the solution.

no fucking way. even db0 doesn’t know my real name.

there is no way I’d give up anonymity online.

that meme that circulated a couple days ago that showed all the ways bumper stickers make you a target is a great illustration. if my name was tied to everything I said online, I wouldn’t say anything, since I’d just be making myself a target.

other times people i guess think that you could cover a complex topic like this in bite-sized spoon-fed internet comments and memes. i feel pity for those guys.

I have a philosophy degree. I don’t need you to cover the topic. I asked you to support your position.

if you can’t explain your position, I’m not going to go looking for support for you.
