This is where I'm at. Half-assed vegetarian. I don't buy meat but if someone serves it at a dinner I don't refuse to eat. Baby steps. It's making progress without the shock of an abrupt change all at once.
Yeah I turned meat into a “special occasion” food, and it was way easier than I thought once I got over the perfectionism. Animal products are a lot easier to reduce than completely eliminate, but every little bit helps.
It's not about your health its primarily about the exploited group.
For you. Let other people have other perspectives and they can all be valid.
"Perspectives" doesn't work when they are beings being harmed. When they are victims let people oppress isn't a good take.
Sure it does when we’re discussing the motivation for someone to choose eating less meat. If they are doing it for health reasons that’s no less valid than your reasons.
I'm just saying, if your reasons for being against the holocaust is that burning the corpses contributed to greenhouse gas emissions, you are kind of a shitty person, but hey, whatever gets you there...?
You’re the vegan everyone complains about.
Complain all you want, at least I don't pay people to kill animals so that I may consume their corpse. Merry Christmas though!
