@selzero eating the rich IS vegan
@shi @selzero vegetarian Ethics Philosopher Peter Singer has written lengthy essays explaining how, considering that natural predation has been largely removed and overpopulation of a species causes its own suffering, cull-hunting can be considered part of vegan-like animal-ethics-aware lifestyle.
@selzero the rich aren't sentient, you can do both!
@selzero I'm vegan but Im also an anti-capitalist and am aware that our problems stem from corporate modes of exploitative food production. So eat the rich, down with capitalism. When you produce locally, you'll be eating mostly local produce anyways. A non-industrial, unprocessed mode of food production cannot sustain having meat for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Britain is broken. What will fix it? Lots and lots of money

If the money were for bank bailouts, we wouldnโ€™t hesitate โ€“ and ยฃ100bn is much better than state failure, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

If the people making these decisions ate #TheBigAssPaellaAndPulledPorkPestoBurgerCombo (TM) we wouldn't be in this mess.

@selzero where is the compost the rich to grow your own plant-based diet option?
@selzero lmao who are the 5% i gotta know ;_;
@selzero I say eat the rich and then go vegan.
@selzero
This poll shows why we're losing the battle. FFS people wake the fuck up.

@selzero

Always remember to tenderize first.

@selzero
Why can't I pick both? Eating the rich is totally vegan.
@selzero Meat industry is around only 20% of total emissions. Fossil fuel billionaires and their companiesโ€ฆ well, I know what I prefer to get rid of ๐Ÿ˜…
@selzero going vegan does reduce your individual carbon footprint by a lot. But if the bottom two-thirds of society reduces their individual footprint, it still wouldn't be enough to solve the climate crisis because the rich actually do consume that much more than we do. And they feel entitled to continue doing so, expecting us to make up the shortfall with increasing austerity.
@selzero
I mean, I'm happy for a half way measure where I go vegan any time I'm *not* eating the rich...
@RedandtheWolfDesigns
@selzero You can always just feed them to animals that would otherwise be killing cute animals for food, instead of eating them which is kinda gross.

@dalias

Someone gotta feed the tigers when they are too big for the petting zoo, or when rich people get bored and let them loose.

I think you just created a self sustainable circle of life.

@selzero If the sensory aspects of eating food wasn't terrible for me, I would go vegan but eating a rich still sound badass
@selzero
So vegans are voting to eat meat?
@selzero If we are entitled to eat the rich, because of what they are doing to us, aren't animals in factory farms entitled to eat us, because of what we are doing to them?
@selzero I would argue that mulching the rich, to avoid consuming the toxins they've accumulated in their meat over the years, would be wiser. But it would be hard to resist the temptation of a little nibble during that first bonfire/barbeque.
@selzero I propose to just sterilize the rich, you know the way theyโ€™ve meant to sterilize the poors for years.
This strategy carries many advantages:
1. Efficient. Given its disproportionate ecological footprint, sterilizing just one rich is equal to 100 poors.
2.Redistribution. Nobody inherits, the state can appropriate the funds and make them available to society. Bonus: We woud stop hearing Nepobabies whining about how deserving they are.
3. Vegans could stay vegan.
