    No you’re right, we should take the side of the government who actively performs military drills off the coast of a mostly defenseless island of people to subjegate them. The side of a country who has countless times shown us they not only don’t respect our way of living but actively support our enemies like Russia. The side of a country that if given the option would propagandize us the same way they do their citizens. Heard of Tiananmen square?

    I’d rather be exploited by billionaires for my work than lied to, manipulated by, exploited by, then murdered by my government in the streets.


  • Because nobody likes self aggrandizement. The perception that so many people only do it to make themselves appear to be better people because of their morally superior choice is often a vile taste to anyone who hasn’t made that same choice.

    We all know eating meat is bad and for the many reasons for it. What we don’t want to hear is that someone made the switch and that their bleeding heart simply couldnt take it anymore.

    I eat beyond meat and I do my best to transition, yet, I’d never say that for the purpose of making myself seem like a better person. Vegans typically do.
