  whatever you need to justify killing a pig

  I don’t need any justification for that lol. I wouldn’t care if people ate dogs either.

  I was just pointing out a traditional norm that people usually don’t eat carnivores (because they are more prone to disease and are much less efficient to farm).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Happy Birthday Emma!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dogs and cats are carnivores. We don’t eat carnivores in general, regardless of domestication.

  The only odd one out are horeses, who we don’t eat in spite of them not being carnivores.

  It would be great if politicians could all be philosophers writing political theory.

  But that’s not what gets the votes. In a democracy, the most important skill of a politicians is being able to sell their ideas.

  There’s a reason populism is popular. Because people don’t read theory, people read posts on X.

  That’s certainly true, yet I still disagree with the post’s claim that “cocaine is no worse than whiskey”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Colombian president says cocaine 'no worse than whisky'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you make cocaine legal, you effectively make crack legal, since the conversion is trivial.

  And no, methamphetamine existing does not make cocaine less harmful.

  The most abused substance is caffeine.

  How often a substance is abused has very little to do with how dangerous or addictive it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Colombian president says cocaine 'no worse than whisky'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Cocaine is one of the most addictive drugs that exist. Alcohol is barely addictive.
