and they’re both delicious, nothing wrong here except animal exploitation

RoyaltyInTraining, in If you're feeling left out it's probably because you defend billionaires who would mince you into fertilizer
@RoyaltyInTraining@lemmy.world avatar

Capitalists need workers to oppress. Without them, they would have nothing to give them a feeling of superiority. Mincing people into fertilizer would surely be a fun pastime for the rich, but it’s hardly a sustainable hobby

SuperCub,

Capitalists don’t care about sustainability.

Honytawk,

They would if those workers were trying to unionize.

Free Market Capitalism would bring back slavery if we let them.

RizzRustbolt,

Free Market Capitalism

Oxymoron

phoenixz,

You have a rather one dimensional moustache twirling view of the world. Let me guess, communism is the one stop solves all problems in the world solution without any negative side effects?

You do understand that that is not how the world works, or for that matter, how anything works?

Seriously, your comment is plain nonsense. Yes, captialism has a shitload of issues. Yes, there are rich and abusive people out there. Yes, communism is responsible for countless millions of deaths and tortured…

Instead of making up weird fantasies, how about to try to come up with an idea that would actually make things better?

AVincentInSpace,

I missed the part where the person you’re replying to mentioned communism at all.

Faceroll,

Don’t worry, The dude was just hurt that his world view was challenged and felt the need to strike out

Honytawk,

If this one of the people the post mentions?

Neat! 📸

Thinking about how to make the world better starts with fantasizing, and moves on to theorizing and debating ideas. Calling the many decades of socialist and communist thought just fantasies goes beyond all reason. At this point you’re just ragebaiting. This is not how you talk to people.

Saltblue,

Communism as Marx described, has to do more with the complete automatization of the means of production, and the subsequently change of the structure of society, as a result of post scarcity.

Remember that just past Mars humanity has a near infinite repository of resources, it’s only on this earth that we are subjected to the rat race, when we have the wealth of the universe so close.

You may think that I’m dreaming, but if we let capital unchecked, it will destroy us, and destroy earth. We have nothing to lose but our chains.

phoenixz,

if we let our capital unchecked

I am all in favor for heavily regulated and checked capitalism. Like it or not, its the most successful system and it can be a source for good when heavily regulated and used as an input source for a socialist system that takes care of all.

Beyond Meat Ingredients: Water, pea protein, expeller-pressed canola oil, refined coconut oil, rice protein, natural flavors, dried yeast, cocoa butter, methylcellulose, and less than 1% of potato starch, salt, potassium chloride, beet juice color, apple extract, pomegranate concentrate, sunflower lecithin, vinegar, lemon juice concentrate, vitamins and minerals (zinc sulfate, niacinamide [vitamin B3], pyridoxine hydrochloride [vitamin B6], cyanocobalamin [vitamin B12], calcium pantothenate[Vitamin B5]).

Based on my light research, Beyond meat is not too bad, ingredient wise. If someone wants to chime in, I don’t see any preservatives either.

Mfw when ‘whole foods’ turns out to be a rule of thumb, not a lifestyle.

This has to be the most eat pray love meme I’ve ever seen. Hindus are vegetarian not vegan (disclaimer: they aren’t a monolith) and use a lot of ghee (milk product). That brown dude looks like a Sikh; they are typically not vegetarian or vegan.

UnverifiedAPK,

Unless OP put it somewhere in the comments the word Hindu wasn’t used.

cyclohexane,

I never did, lol

India is known for vegetarian cuisine due to Hinduism. Jains are a small minority.

raven, in Vegan food: The west vs India

When people complain about vegan diets lacking in x, y, or z I always point out that our diets are culturally balanced, as well as being balanced by the addition of vitamins to staple foods. If we all became deficient in say, iron, we would start fortifying iron in our water, flour, salt, rice etc, while at the same time we would culturally move towards eating more black beans and spinach than we currently do. When an individual removes a food group from their diet, it’s only reasonable that you will have to intentionally rebalance your diet in other places. This isn’t a deficiency inherent in a vegan diet.

If you have to supplement a vitamin or mineral that’s just part of your diet, so don’t @ me with your natural=good nonsense.

Maoo,
@Maoo@hexbear.net avatar

The only thing vegans need to supplement with is B12. Everything else can be had from a balanced diet.

raven,

Once you discover nutritional yeast it’s hard not to get enough B12.

roux,
@roux@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Don’t forget Monster energy drinks! /s sort of. I take a supplement though lol

Emma_Gold_Man,

Depends. Not all nutritional yeast is B12 fortified

raven,

Thanks for the warning, didn’t know that was a thing!

TheCaconym,

Nooch does not contain B12. It is sometimes added to it, perhaps even often in the US ? but in the EU for example I’ve never ever seen B12-fortified nooch.

raven,

Oh really? I didn’t know they made it without. I just checked mine and it says it has >100% of all the b complex vitamins in a serving (2 tbsp). I do live in the US but I got mine online.

OurTragicUniverse,
@OurTragicUniverse@kbin.social avatar

Engevita Nutritional Yeast has B12 right on the front of the packaging. It's the most common brand in the UK. We're not in the EU anymore sadly but it's been the most common brand (only brand really) here for well over a decade now.

Also Vitamin D. You are not doing shit with merely getting sunlight, without having some D2 or D3 in body to breakdown and fuel. That comes from dairy for us Indians.

ohlaph, in HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

That’s wild.

I as a man have that with Jeans and socks. Both are fucking uncomfortable and to be gotten rid of at the earliest convenience!

SnowBunting,

Yes, always. And maybe shirt depending on how tight or stiff it is.

daellat,

I’ve completely moved away from jeans. They’re uncomfortable. I live the chino life now. Much better.

pete_the_cat,

COVID and WFH has ruined me. I’ve been living the sweatpants/basketball shorts life for like 3 years now and whenever I put on jeans I feel like I’m being choked.
