Cambridge choosing not to serve red meat in its cafeterias doesn't mean that meat is being "cancelled" any more than you choosing to eat meat means that vegetarians are being "cancelled."
- exar0815 6y agoThis argument is bent over backwards. A cafeteria serving red meat allows people not eating red meat to not order it. The other way around, not so much. And thats the problem with all the neo-luddite, super-feminist or anarcho-ecological movements. They all want to curtail choice, which does not sit well with most humans. We as humanity respond well to nudges and a gradual process, but bans, cancelling and aggresive prohibition will always have the same effect.
