So what if John Smith pays an assassin to kill you, and then I donate to John’s GoFundMe to say thanks for getting you killed? Am I responsible then?

how could you be responsible for that? they did it without your knowledge, and without knowing whether anyone would set up or donate to the GoFundMe.

But animal farmers know that people like you will buy meat at the supermarket, so where you say I’m not responsible, you are.

no, they dont. I could get hit by a bus in my way to the grocery store today. it is impossible to know the future.
