I can’t imagine what that does to a child’s psyche. Like this is how you propagate serial killers right.

we should make the children of the CEO do the same job at the same age.

Or we could take pity on the child and not propagate mental harm. Radical idea, I know. Little kids are innocent.

I’m willing to learn. Perhaps I really did misinterpret your meaning. I don’t want to be a debate bro, but elaboration would be really be appreciated.

Teaching “Sins of the Father” (but not really, just in Minecraft) and then wondering why my kids spend all their days cutting themselves.

We should send the CEO to the slaughterhouse. You know, for a thorough inspection. Make sure they get a real good look at the equipment, you know?

If you’re not vegan, this is on you too. Turns out non-human animal exploitation requires human animal exploitation, who would have thought

Cell phone: required to get a job in first world countries, which is required to get food, which is required to survive

Eating animals: expensive, actively harms you

Conclusion: yeah these are definitely comparable

The massive amount of dangerous work, environmental destruction and depletion of ressources necessary to produce murdered animal corpses is an order of magnitude higher than to produce beans.

Something something ethical consumption under capitalism.

By all means, be vegan. But all the asparagus water in the world won’t wash clean the sins of the American agriculture industry.

Just stop making excuses.

You need to be able to prescribe a solution that’s bigger than “Just stop making consumer choices!” Otherwise, its no different than screaming at people to properly sort their recycleables.

at least you won’t sound pretentious with the whole “i have nothing to do with these children, its capitalism’s fault!”

There’s a difference between acknowledging a problem and LARPing a solution. Again, by all means, if vegan lifestyle works for you then you’re a better person for doing it. But you’re still participating in the society. Those grocery dollars are ultimately going to the same agricultural firms and propping up the same institutions as everyone else’s.

This isn’t an excuse, its a function of a consolidated market.

And while I try like hell to shop local and avoid Big Ag wherever I can, I still recognize that I’m just a drop in the bucket. My actions are an attempt to be ethical with very limited input and even less information.

I’ll do what I can to subvert it. But I sure as hell am not going to feel personally guilty because of centuries of institutionalized labor abuse.
