    How so? The system of patriarchy is beyond any one individual to solve. Yet I’m damn certain you believe every man should still do their best not to contribute. Why should the system of animal exploitation (and environmental destruction, while we’re at it) be any different?

    Is it because one of these requires actual work on your side? You are the one measuring the same thing by two different standards.

    Kannst du mir eine soziale Bewegung nennen, bei der die Gegner/Nicht-Anhänger nicht auch immer das gleiche behauptet haben? MLK war Public Enemy #1, und alle seine Proteste und Marches wurden auch immer als “falsch” oder “nervig” oder “zu aggressiv” angesehen. Das gleiche für Feministen, für Gewerkschaftler, etc.

    Wenn alle Bewegungen deinem Standard folgen müssten, hätte die Hälfte der Menschheit immer noch keine grundlegenden Menschenrechte












  • I don’t understand the need for Ctrl-C/V, when manually copying the text exists. I know it’s snarky, but that’s the level of difference we’re talking about here. Or imagine, to delete a line, someone Right Arrows 50 times, then backspaces 50 times, instead of using the shortcut.




  • ANY effective, long-term collective change REQUIRES that the large majority of people CHANGE THEIR CONSUMPTION HABBITS. While not great, the private plane stuff is exactly as pointless as the paper straws. Both are ways for everyone to point the finger at everyone else, and not have to change.

    If the government implemented the “correct” laws tomorrow, but the populace doesn’t want to change their habits, they will vote in people that give them back their old, bad things.

    If a company implemented to “correct” processes, but the consumers don’t want to pay the necessary price, they go bankrupt, and the company with the “incorrect, but cheap” processes wins.

    ALL COLLECTIVE ACTION IS A COLLECTION OF INDIVIDUAL CHANGE. There is no alternative!
