  What is it with vegans and comparing literally everything to veganism? I was in another thread and it was compared to genocide, rape, and climate change all in the same thread. Insanity

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Imo, Kant’s principles don’t really apply in this scenario, the Categorical Imperative applies to human-to-human treatment. Kant’s primary principle is act as such it would become universal law. Animal consumption is already a universal law.

  Murder (of a human) is wrong because when applied universally, then society collapses. Theft is wrong because when applied universally, the right of property, and therefore society, collapses.

  Animal consumption doesn’t cause societal collapse.

  Thoughts?

  Nah, I’m pro Palestine. I just think comparing the genocide to animal slaughter is a little tone deaf.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  People aren’t ignoring climate change though, and I would generally think that’s because it’s an existential threat. You’re comparing apples and oranges.

  Speedrun comparing anti-veganism to the Holocaust any% WR

  I mean I would say they probably don’t know because they aren’t sapient, but sure.

  You aren’t going to change industrialized factory farming abuse by berating and lecturing people on Lemmy. People are just going to be more annoyed by your cause. I don’t even entirely disagree with you, to be honest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you actually comparing climate change to animal abuse? Lol

  At the very least I’d say people are significantly more aware and receptive to climate change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New idea ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Look, I don’t disagree with your point necessarily, but you’re not winning over literally anyone in this thread. It’s just not happening.

  Nobody ever has been convinced that dairy is rape and meat is murder by some Lemmy user saying “dairy is rape” and following up with “because it is”.

  Most obviously, your primary argument is consequentialism, which many people just don’t see as a valid form of ethics. Many people subscribe to deontology instead, and so they don’t see it as rape because they are not obtaining sexual gratification from artificial insemination or drinking milk.

  They are quite literally lying about the content of games like GTA V. They pulled the whole “the goal of the game is killing women” schtick

  I would say it’s both that and also the world just not caring about them, and misogynistic red pill communities pretending to care and have all the answers

  Honestly Lemmy has been way better for me for my phone habits. Just enough content but not too much

  Because everyone does. NASA is apolitical, they just want science messaging to reach as many people as it can, which I agree with. Hell, if that meant posting on 4chan I’d agree with that lmao

  … My comment wasn’t disagreeing with you? Sorry it was probably worded goofy lmao

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨T-Mobile, AT&T oppose unlocking rule, claim locked phones are good for users⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why does that even matter? Currently, if you have a locked phone and switch carriers, you have to buy an entirely new phone anyways.

  At least this way, a user can pay once, and then hop around carriers depending on what’s cheap.

  Also there’s no shot that locking users to phones costs that much because the unlocked version of a phone is only like 15-20% more expensive. Since when did you ever get a 70% discount on the MSRP of a phone for buying it locked??? They’re straight ass lying lmao
