I give my money to the same people that you do: a grocer.

the pig was slaughtered in the past, before I walked into the store or decided what I’m eating this week. everyone involved was paid before all that, too.

they are paid before the bacon enters the store

all those people are paid before I even decide whether I’m going to buy bacon.

do you have a plan to get everyone to stop buying meat now? it sounds like a pointless hypothetical that we can’t even test.

federatingIsTooHard,

The meat you buy today pays the meat that enters the store later.

no, it doesn’t. it pays the store today. that’s it.

after I spend my money, it’s not mine anymore and I don’t get to decide what happens to it. same is true whether I buy beans from the store or bacon.

federatingIsTooHard,

If they do not expect you (or other people) to buy the meat, they won’t pay those people to raise / kill the pigs.

I’m not responsible for managing other people’s expectations.

If no-one buys it they stop, it’s that simple.

I’m confident that pigs were slaughtered before the invention of money.

i am open to evidence, but I do not have enough evidence now to support the belief that nonhuman animals understand personal mortality, so I do not believe that they do.

Buying meat is supporting the future production of meat, that’s all.

you are stretching the definition of"support" to meaninglessness.

federatingIsTooHard,
@federatingIsTooHard@lemmy.world avatar

I believe if I didn’t buy meat, it would continue to be made, and in ever-increasing quantities. my purchases have no impact whatsoever on whether any animal is bred, raised, or slaughtered.

To return the shopping cart is an easy, convenient task and one which we all recognize as the correct, appropriate thing to do.

There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to return their cart.

this claim lacks both entrenchment and testability. anyone should doubt such a claim, but doubly so given it’s known source.

the result would be a total police state. I understand you don’t care about freedom. I do.

harassment is bad. anonymity is good.
