The title may sound weird. I initially wrote it as “fuck over the billionaires”. But it is not only billionaires, but also multi-millionaires and people who think themselves hierarchically superior.

So:

  • Are you doing something to fuck over “the powerful”? If so, what?

    Kind of reminds me of a vegan couple I knew in college. They did a speech in class (for public speaking), and one of the points was “Even just cutting meat out one day a week, like with meatless mondays, helps a lot more than you’d expect”

    Even cutting back can make a dent

      Looking at the average meat consumption is crazy tbh. We buy less between the 2 of us, even if you include the bone/fat/skin as when I do buy it I get the cheapest cuts. Got a small cut of pork shoulder for this week, and that is the entire weeks meat, 4 meals from the pork with the other 3 being vegetarian (cheese/honey so not vegan)

        Beekeeper here. For the life of me, I can’t understand why vegans can’t have honey. I understand it is an animal product. But there is no harm to bees when harvesting honey properly.

        Same goes for wool. Have you ever seen a sheep that hasn’t been sheared?

          I do know vegans that are fine with eating honey, but generally it isn’t considered a vegan food.
