The thing with 99% leverage sadly has only a chance of 1% to happen while the 1% leverage thing you can just make happen. And if you make the 1% thing happen in more people the votes for the 99% thing start to go up as well. And eating less meat does have an impact. For years now i read headlines that year n had less pig meat being eaten in total than year n-1 (pork being the focus as my country afaik does not have a big beef industry so it’s not as relevant to report about it)
We have very little influence on the industry as a whole but if you buy less meat, the meat industry actually becomes smaller over time. The alternative products also become more and more. Super markets over here all have a vegan shelf at least and there’s more vegan only restaurants opening up in my city that even made my meat eater colleagues go there to eat from time to time.
I agree, blue boy is giving me icky vibes and I almost quit the show before the end of the episode. I’ll maybe give it one more episode if I’m bored but it’s honestly too straight romance focused and thus falls into a lot of the “are the straights ok” pitfalls of icky stuff portrayed as normal and romantic even.
