I feel like this is a personal attack. I just made 3 communities and announced I would be BDFL. if the governance structure was available when I announced that, I would have said that I was going to be using it.

depending on your politics, autistici

isn't your point that you think by abstaining from consuming meat, meat production will be impacted? the production grows incessantly. it's obvious that meat producers do not care whether you buy meat.

your original point was that you bear no responsibility for the deaths of animals you consume

right. and this speaks directly to that.

even one death that was prevented has value.

but that has never worked, has it?

"Oh well, people died before laws were introduced, may as well go on a killing spree"

this is a strawman. my argument is more like "you may object to killing animals for food, but your method is not an effective way to stop it"

if they were subject to the whims of irrational actors, I might worry more.

I mean what I say.

cows were killed before anybody bought meat. there is no reason to believe that will stop even if you stop buying it.

to an extent you're right, but I understand the laws of physics. markets are not dictated by anything like the laws of physics.

they don't know the future. they hope their research is correct.
