i wasn't doxxed, but i don't enjoy reddit as much as i used to. it feels like an addiction or a distraction at the moment and it's surprisingly sad how often i am noticing myself think "oh you should take a picture of this and share it" or "that's a funny story you should post this", i don't seem to enjoy doing things for the sake of it any more and rather it's me trying to get reactions out of people, whether that's disgust or laughter. last month i challenged myself to take a week off reddit because i noticed i was on it too much, i lasted 2 days and then started coming back on now, so recently i just thought fuck it i need to be able to go more than 2 days without going on here, that's not healthy. i was going to write something more in depth but i really just need to stop coming on here for a while, i said a month to myself so i'll go for that. the more time i spend on reddit, the less time i spend doing other things and it's not worth it for me. i see people spending so much time on social media and said i never wanted to be like them but i have become like that. so ill probably make a blog/video/something in a few weeks just to talk about it properly because i think a lot of people will be in similar positions and won't be aware of it or willing to try and change.
there's a lot on my mind at the moment so i just need to step back and think about what i should do now.
I am totally happy to admit that with regards to diet vegans hold a higher moral standard than I do but the problem is they are so universally insufferable that I literally couldn't give less of a shit about it.
I only have one vegan friend but he’s totally cool about it. He will make fun of us for eating meat but we all make fun of everything. Traveling to Paris with him was awful tho. Skipped so many good restaurants because there was no vegan option
Not really. At the fundamental level is it more moral to kill animals (including all the flaws of mass production farming) or not to kill animals?
Pretty basic concept I can agree with.
On the other I appreciate the heck out of a medium rare filet and the occasional bacon sandwich... sooo.... It's just going to have to be a hypocrisy I'll live with.
Don't animals also kill other animals? Are plants not alive also? Are we trying to preserve life or prevent suffering? Because I think only the latter can work as a justification.
Not really. At the fundamental level is it more moral to kill animals (including all the flaws of mass production farming) or not to kill animals?
Except that's a retarded false dichotomy because anyone remotely familiar with today's agriculture knows modern food production (and that includes corp production) results in 'needless' decimations & displacements of animal populations. The notion of doing 'the least harm' is literally a pipe dream unless you live in the Little House on the Prairie.

Flexitarianism is the radical centrist position, and thus correct by default

You haveto be an antivaxx-tier wootard to believe even the most basic vegan dogma. Be it about health, the environment, biology or morality.

Harnessing animals from nature and eating their hearts is cool and so is global warming and eating kale is dumb.
