  • It is incredibly ironic that you see yourself as a moral force for good while vehemently defending some of the most atrocious practices in the world today. I hope you are able to cast aside your addiction so you can see clearly enough to actually do some good. It is clear that you find your behavior deplorable, it is just that you can't fathom giving up on your precious factory farms.

  • By the way, once again, you made up this vegan thing. Go look for me saying anyone should be vegan. You've created a fictional world, and even a fictional person to argue against because you have no leg to stand on in the real world arguing against a real person.

  • The emissions happen because people financially support them. It isn't hard to grasp. You just don't want to feel responsible. I know I'm not responsible for it, and I don't have to try to pretend that my money doesn't help continue what they do. You have to pretend or admit guilt, and at this point you can't bring yourself to admit to what you are doing.

  • I know it's embarrassing, but you can go back and read what you've written. No stretch of the imagination puts you on any side other than trying to excuse your funding those monsters.

  • I absolutely get that you don't want to be thinking these things next time you are trying to enjoy your cheap cheeseburger and ice cream, or whatever else your personal guilty pleasure is. I am well aware that I have, at least temporarily, greatly tarnished your ability to selfishly enjoy these things. I hope this conversation will help you, or anyone reading this, be a bit more loving. You have not at all succeeded in convincing me that I should be more selfish, more hateful, or less compassionate. I highly doubt that your best version of yourself would really want what you are so sadly trying to desperately defend.

  • Someone who advocates for taking care of the planet, and treating others compationately disagrees with you. You try to defend massive corporations that are well known for destroying the planet and abusing animals in ways so horrific that simply being shown what they are doing took you to a place not far from suicidal ideas. If that is really what you think you should be defending deep down, there is nothing I can tell you to change your mind. Just consider if you would rather be on the side defending compassion or on the side fighting against it.

  • It's I possible to have a conversation with someone who constantly pretends like they didn't say what they did. I've given you all the information you need to take your next steps, now it's on you.

  • And yet here you are claiming that if people abstaining don't result in their profit going down, then abstaining does nothing.

    we have evidence people abstain. we have evidence that the production increases. there is no evidence that abstaining from buying meat has ever reduced emissions.

    It is obvious that you really don't want to be responsible for your actions. That is the heart of this issue. No amount of going back and forth with me will do that for you. It is you who needs to look at what you do. If you think funding other people to do terrible things that hurt the environment doesn't actually make you responsible for those horrible things, then no amount of explanation will change this for you. Even if you get me to say "you are right, you can pay anyone to do any terrible thing that brings you pleasure, and you have no moral responsibility for this", it still won't make it true. This isn't hard to see. It just takes you to be willing to analyze it honestly.

  • It is very understandable why you would now try to back down off of your claim that a single person should be able to change an entire industry from being profitable or not. It is fine to admit you were wrong though, it does you no favors to try to act like that was never your stance. The comments are all still there.

  • You were repeatedly wrongly making the claim that an individual's decision to quit giving money to the factory farming industry should be what changes them from profitable to not. It does seem like you have realized the absurdity of this and are now backing off, but this doesn't change your prior claims. It is nice to see you changing your mind about this.

  • No, this is precisely the claim you made. Go ahead and go back and read it.

  • I understand that the reality of your actions disturbs you greatly. Like I said, if you need professional help, then please seek it.

  • It still isn't quite clicking for you. An individual person starting or stopping to give money to an entire industry does not change the industry from being profitable or not. I never said it did. It is you who has consistently claimed that it should, despite a lack of evidence. It is a very solipsistic view to think that one person's purchases change an entire industry from being profitable or not. I don't really know how to get you to internalize the logic behind this, you really just need to try hard to work it out for yourself if this is really the point that you are struggling with.

  • With you helping, x is increasing by 101 every day, without you, it is increasing by 100. This is the crux of what you are misunderstanding. The difference you make does not pull it from the negative to the positive.

  • I was referring to the average person, not people with extreme mental issues and suicidal tendencies. I want people who are of a sound mind and able to understand their actions to be aware of what they are doing and feel the appropriate way. I don't want you to act rashly on any suicidal thoughts that you may be having. I want you to be ok and to get the help you need.

  • I didn't realise that this was such a traumatic topic for you. I'm sorry if I triggered some intense feelings of guilt. In case you really are contemplating suicide due to having your behavior pointed out, you can call 988 if you are in the US.

    I wish you all the best, but I don't feel comfortable continuing this conversation with you. I really am sorry, I didn't realise you were affected so strongly by this. Please call thay number if you are feeling badly. All the best!

  • There is no need to be intellectually dishonest about the point of view of the person you are arguing with. This is what is called a "strawman" argument. If you look back through the thread, you will find that I never even discussed bean purchasing. It is very telling that in order to feel like you have "won" the argument, you must make up things to "be" my point of view. What this means is that the argument that you see yourself as winning is actually against yourself! If you actually had a strong argument, then you wouldn't have to create the thing that it is able to beat. It would actually be able to beat the argument of someone else.

  • I offered no excuses. I'm not sure what your issue is, but on top of being unfamiliar with basic reasoning skills, there are also some definitional misunderstandings. If English is your second language, then I suggest you find a better translation app to help you interact with people online. If not, then maybe a standard dictionary and some willingness to learn is all you need. Standard definitions of terms is paramount to a constructive conversation.
