@Lana What's your point?

@costeer AI isn’t food, chief.
The US uses about 1e14 liters of water for farm irrigation per year. Should we stop that too?

@drahardja @costeer what a brilliant observation. AI is indeed not food. Someone give this guy an award.
A big issue with beef, beside the cruelty of abusing and murdering animals, is that we grow huge amounts of crops to then feed huge amounts of cattle that we then kill to eat. It would be far more efficient to just eat the crops ourselves.
The resources (such as food, water and land) expended on raising animals to be food are tremendous, and it is an unreasonable cost.

@OndrejZizka @costeer it's in us, eu might be different, but it depends on region. Yes eu has it's regulations. As part of my family has small farm(poland) and had it's own livestock and crops, vegetables etc i recognize differences between this and 'industrial/mass' livestock handling (it's not pretty, never was)...

@costeer about 7.8B liters/day of water is used on #golf courses. How about we give up on golf first?

@nomi @GLaDTheresCake @riwe @costeer
when animals are your food, then you're not mitigating harm to them, you are doing harm to them. they go to the slaughterhouse because of your food habit.even by eating #plantbased you don't "save" any animals. you just don't actively pay for them to be imprisoned and killed because taste.
if i see a dog, and i don't kick the dog, that's not me mitigating harm. that's just not being an asshole.
#veganism is not being an asshole to animals: it is the absolute minimum.
@pelle @GLaDTheresCake @riwe @costeer why do you consider plant-based meat bad?
