It’s just a lifestyle choice for her that has no connection to anything else.

this is what "veganism" means, it's just another individual consumption choice that people atomistically make to feel less polluted. if you're building a coalition to design or enact a sustainable food distribution system, even if it involves vastly reduced animal products, that isn't veganism, and it will necessarily need the cooperation of a lot of non-vegans.

she's right: anti-capitalism is anti-vegan, and anti-recycling, and anti- all the other responsibilizing bullshit that's been presented to us as consumer choice.

e: oh, except when it's presented to us as a sacred earth-saving mission that can't be held back by labor organizing as with the No Evil Foods campaign

at first i thought it was a joke at the expense of the obviously repugnant husband character. like that sitcom about sitcom husbands, Kevin Can F Himself.

or like this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA-vD5pyuS4

but much like how kcfh is undercut by it inadvertently portraying emotional abuse on the part of the wife, the joke of this public letter is undercut by being written by the biggest piece of poo poo to correspond with a newspaper since jack the ripper.

I knew a South African guy in high school and people would make that joke about him being the only African American in Montana and he would turn bright red and loudly state “I am not an African American” in a way that made it clear he found the label deeply offensive. gently caress that guy and also gently caress Elon too

i know a poster who did you one better:

Your Gay Uncle posted:

I went to middle school with a South African kid name Rolf. He was the whitest white guy who ever lived. He looked like a younger version of the bad guy in Die Hard who's brother Mclane killed. I got a 3 day suspension for racism because he nailed me with a dodgeball in PE and I told him to " go back to Africa".

ObamaAkbar. posted:

do they not realise they can basically make up whatever rules they want?

yeah but they want a tradition which they can use as an external source of authority, to pressure more people to submit to their authoritarian enjoyment. without that it's all up to their own intelligence and charisma, and making agreements with players as if theyre people who have good ideas and other things they could be doing. if you can't hide behind the excuse of "that's just how things are done," then you have to either do the work of bullying people directly, or of trying to get their consent and cooperation.

Napoleon reversed the abolition of slavery that had been declared by the previous generation of revolutionary leaders (slavery wouldn't be re-abolished in French colonies until 1848) and tried to crush the Haitian Revolution with military force to re-enslave the people of Haiti, so I'm not convinced he was such a great guy

haiti must be the most damning example but i learned from the excellent Age of Napoleon podcast that on many subjects of political debate Napoleon made a big deal of being of two minds and open to arguments from all sides before doing something very regressive.

I watched a cool doc about the northwest passage. unfortunately they decided to play this song about 15 times through it, with it playing louder during transitions

lol

i mean, i enjoy the song, but it's about a guy driving west on a highway first wishing he could have joined explorers who died looking for something that didn't exist, then deciding he's already just like them. i think it's a weird choice to play on anything about the actual expeditions, even once. but fifteen! goondolences.

dk owns a whole island that has been carved into his visage as some grotesque monument to personal vanity, and do you think the workers on that project got even one single banana for their troubles?

this is made even more offensive by the fact that we never see him eat a single banana. presumably british censorship laws tied rare's hands.

the kongs moved to brooklyn during the great migration, which led working class italians like mario to align with a broader white identity in reaction to a perceived economic threat
