            i buy petroleum products. i disagree with most of the aspects of their procurement, distribution, and use. if i stop buying them, none of that changes.

              Petroleum production decreases as we implement alternatives. Are you really going to tell me this isn’t the case? 🤣

              ETA: You know, for someone named commie, you’re spouting a lot of neoliberal nonsense. “Ah, no sense trying to change anything even if we don’t agree with it.”

                  You’re really gonna tell me that meat production will be unchanged as more people have been adopting a plant-based diet. Good thing you don’t run Tyson, they’ve been having to close meat processing plants due to decreased demand.

                    meat production continues to GROW even as MORE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN ADOPTING A PLANT-BASED DIET.

                that’s not what i’m saying. i’m saying being vegan isn’t an effective way to change anything.
