Oh FFS you're really going out of your way to misunderstand the issue here. Nobody is claiming that the meat industry is good. People are just voicing concerns because a rich guy is doing what a rich guy usually does: defending his own interests above the common good. It might go in the same direction for a while, sure.

The idea is that in this case everybody profits. Universal gain ≠ personal gain, even if the campaigners are included.

In the case of Vince, everybody profits because of the sustainability, BUT he has another very clear personal economic gain and that makes his intentions questionable. It would be more easily accepted if there wasn't this clear conflict of interests.

green campaigners qre lobbying for personal gain because they want a habitable planet

That's... like the opposite of personal gain

God is infinitely groovy and infinitely funky, but the Bible forgot to tell you that he is also infinitely getting dividends from his shares of Penguin Books, so he has a stake in this.

This man's job is pondering

Seriously though, amazing work to save these books. The pondering is well deserved.

YTA your bf needs some space and you should be more considerate of his hobbies. Maybe he needs this to be thriving in his life and tbh you should ask yourself if you're not already abusing him. If I were him that would be a massive red flag to me. Have you thought about cutting all relationships to appease him, that would be the least you can do

Ah yes China or Russia, countries famously small enough to have a single simple climate.

What a brave man. While trying to protect the society from the evils of homosexualiness (rainbows, questionable moustaches, etc), he still tried to study the enemy to understand their flawed logic. 🫡
