    As long as billionaires are allowed to run around and do what ever the fuck they want I will continue eating meat and not giving a fuck about recycling.

    As long as billionaires have zero consequences then I will have zero sacrifices.

    Fuck you all as long as you let billionaires destroy the earth while the poors take the hit.

    Nah fuck all that shit.

    If you want me to stop eating meat then fucking make me.

      I obviously don’t know anything about you other than that you’re a lemmy user and I get your sentiment. Remember that there are likely those worse off than you as well as those with more, and those worse off will be more affected by the ongoing climate crisis.

      I’m not gonna make you do anything, but by not doing anything, you’re throwing those even worse off than yourself under the bus, in the same way billionaires are throwing everone worse off than them under the bus.

      We don’t all have to screw people over who have less power than us, even if that’s what billionaires do.

      That’s absolving yourself of your personal responsibility to your health, the environment and the animals.

      Just because someone is stepping on puppies doesn’t make it okay for you to do it too. No one should base their morality on the reprehensible things rich people do.

      Besides the plant-based alternatives are great, you wont be missing meat for long.

      As long as Israel is allowed to bomb children with impunity I will continue to beat my children.

      They kill dozens of children in a day and I beat mine maybe once, twice a week. They’re the real problem, and I’m not making any sacrifices until they’re held accountable.
