I’m just making sure everyone knows what the consequence is, whether I like it or not. It’s Biden’s job to do right by the people who voted for him no matter how bad the alternative may be.
Seen a lot of posts on Lemmy with vegan-adjacent sentiments but the comments are typically very critical of vegan ideas, even when they don’t come from vegans themselves. Why is this topic in particular so polarising on the internet? Especially since unlike politics for example, it seems like people don’t really get upset by...

Theres no such thing as a corporation without consumers, we are where the buck is created, and where the buck stops.
Absolutely correct, glad to have read your comment. People need to start realizing they play a role in what’s to come. It’s a terrible mentality to think we don’t all have our effect on the future.
We need to stop eating beef. The fact that no one thinks that if they stop eating beef they won’t have any effect is disturbing as fuck. If everyone stops eating beef then the industry will collapse.
The fact that I don’t see this graph more often is annoying, I hate having to keep bringing this up, someone else share this for fucks sake please.
The fact that you and I got downvotes just speaks massive volumes. We might not make it as a species because we have so many individuals who think it doesn’t matter either way. WE ALL PLAY A FUCKING ROLE, TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DECISIONS IN YOUR LIFE TIME.
AI and robotics are here, more people are seeing their futures stolen. If by “pretty much forever” you mean “about 5-10 years” then I agree. I said the system will break, I didn’t say I see them changing course.
Put the corporate tax rate back up to 40% or more and implement a 10% robot tax on top of that. Then after that, implement a UBI starting at $1000 a month for US citizens with no strings attached, increasing with inflation over time. Solved for the next decade.
Absolutely, and the DEA is a fucking failure, we have an opioid epidemic and they’ve done absolutely nothing to help the US. Complete fucking bullshit agency that does NOTHING to help the American people.
Thankfully electric vehicles are becoming cheaper then ICE vehicles which is a very good sign that we don’t need as many rare earth metals. Unfortunately for renewable technology we still need rare earth metals, and they need to be mined using fossil fuels first. That’s the stage we’re at right now. We still need to get much better at recycling which I believe we will.
Oh and anyone that says electric vehicles are worse for the environment than ICE vehicles are idiots and shills. ICE vehicles also rely on rare earth metals and produce significant air pollution.

[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?

How many communities do you have blocked?

Why do people still eat beef when we know it's terrible for Earth?
