For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.

      I guess the desire to eat less meat somehow implies that I’m eating meat everyday? But thanks, I’ll keep that in mind, if I ever forget how to eat vegetables.

        Lol why do you remove your own default upvote?

        And no, your far-too-long explanation seemed to indicate to me at least you were having cognitive dissonance between your desire to not eat meat and your addiction to meat.

          I see. The first response to a pro-vegetarian/vegan comment is usually about the harm done to other organisms that we can’t avoid. Thus I wanted to clarify in advance that my goal is not the ideal world, but a world where we at least don’t eat what we wouldn’t kill ourselves.

          Oh, I remove the default upvote, because I don’t see the point of it.
