To be clear: I am not disagreeing about introducing more plants to replace meats and other unhealthy stuff on a health and economic perspective. That path of awareness is not what im having a problem with.

What i am disagreeing with is that you or anyone who is eating plant based is using the reasoning that you've absolved suffering overall somehow by going vegan. this path of thinking creates a problem for everyone you cannot possibly solve. including yourself.

This is suggesting we must only ever hold an awareness that to live is to suffer and continue imposing suffering on others. And it doesnt matter what you subsitute. It is all suffering from the consciousness perspective if everything is made of consciousness in order to exist(create and distribute). everything you ever consume will have held conscious and will have affected consciousnrss in order to exist and be available to you.

you will never find a solution to that while you exist as a human that requires to consume consiousness to continue to exist. at least in this form as a human. there is no altruistic answer in this kind of an argument.

plants cant scream. they cannot run. they might not have a fluffy tail and do not lick your face but they are still conscious. And that does not make you any less of a monster in this vilifying moralistic scenario you've manifested to shove towards all of humanity.

technically everything has a consciousness including plants, beans etc so you lose high ground if youre going to play a moral card in any of this. plants just can run away or scream.

it can still be tragic to eat an animal companion.

let's just not pretend someone holds sll the moral cards for not eating consciousness to stay alive. nobody in these fleshbags holds any of the high ground there.

not at all excusing facists.

and while we are getting comfortable tossing demands around at strangers online while hiding behind a screen: dont excuse cult leaders from having culpability of manipulation.

we wouldnt be here without manipulation of masses

Manson didnt have to get his hands bloody to do the time. master manipulators buy in on obtuse fools to be overlooked.

hello this is a legitimate concern i have. not a joke.

bigots can be preying on people with such a trait to get them to follow with little effort.

how are you not concerned that traits linked to a disorder can be a vulnerability that is manipulated?

especially on social media.

have you talked to a MAGA mind? have you listened to how they speak about their denials? i exclusively only run into it with family members that are suffering with adhd are almost exclusively white, cis male and suffering with an inability to concentrate on information for any length of time. they are diagnosed with adhd.

neighbor has two kids that have adhd and one is following some cult about eating raw meat and the other got kidnapped and manipulated by a gang.

i believe this is an overlooked disorder when it comes to cult hive minds and how easy it is to hijack someone who might have issues with concentration and difficulty in fitting in with a society that relies heavily concepts of survival by social gregariousness but little tolerance for neuro divergence and tend to too easily isolate away people in such circumstances.

leaves perfect hunting ground for predatory cult like thinking.

But they seem so impatient and seem to refer to any time spent thinking things out is boring. I've only seen this with my diagnosed adhd family members who blame adhd for everything they do

 

Carney says there will be more meetings. He’ll bring the matches next time if things don’t go well.

 

Just reading up on these as the conservatives seem pretty right wing especially during this last election. Then I read the PPC description, they seem pretty similar at a glance. Did they have further distinction before and just recently some of the actors of the Conservatives become pushing towards the PPC ideals?
