- gerdesj 5y agoI shall instruct my octopodal mates to avoid hot baths and go for the incineration option instead. This is a tricky one. Where do you draw the line as an omnivore?
- kelseyfrog 5y agoSomewhere before primates.
- mdale 5y agoTimes you wish you could double up vote :)
- Larrikin 5y agoAnything tasty that won't make me sick
- asdff 5y agoIf its been distributed here, prepped, and offered for sale, I might as well eat it since its there anyhow. Better conditions for animals will come from legislation and not consumer choices.
- sweetheart 5y agoYou don’t think individuals collective buying habits influence macro trends in supply?
- nefitty 5y agoI do. I would like to know what you think. My understanding of the mechanism is probably oversimplified.
- asdff 5y agoI think when it comes to meat its more of a tragedy of the commons issue, and the most effective way to get something done is to encourage my representatives to support legislation that helps these animals versus holding my breath and waiting for the world to wake up and choose logic. Keep in mind this is a society that have many who, when shown that smoking causes lung cancer, continues to smoke. After COVID and seeing the worldwide idiot brigade come out of the woodwork from that, I'm even more cynical, and more certain that there are just too many idiots on this planet to just expect consumers to one day wise up and start doing things differently.
- sweetheart 5y agoBut we can do both: personally abstain to inform the market of changing preferences, and lobby the government to introduce new laws and reorganize subsidies. It’s not one or the other. There is no reason to wait to stop eating animals unnecessarily
- sdeframond 5y agoYep. And this oil has been refined already, might as well burn it now. That plane will fly with or without me in it. /s Except the providers actually adjust to demand. If the products are not sold, they will make less of them. I can't remember the name of this particular fallacy.
