@pelle @wav3ydave @kim_harding @JugglingWithEggs @vfrmedia @mpjgregoire whether there was any scope to reduce that desire and what the barriers to doing so were, and most importantly how confident I can be in my estimation of all those values. As I cannot be 100% confident of my estimation I will favour taking both approaches.

Again, really hoping this is an analogy and not an actual threat I'm dealing with here, and would appreciate clarification

@afewbugs
i mean, for people who would like to be knocked in the head to reduce harm, i'm always there to help.

for the people who advocate #gaschamber as #harmreduction, i don't have the full equipment but i believe plastic bags work just as well.

i am saying this in jest of course, but the sad truth is that the threats from the #gaschamber advocates are genuine and deadly. 😔

i am thankful that you eat #vegan but i am always astounded when someone finds it "imposing" to ask others to eat #plantbased while genuinely considering gassing kids as #harmreduction. 💨🐷

i believe that is what #stevebest would describe as #vegan #stockholmsyndrome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHDTZniuzyc

if the article and you all here are right, and almost everyone want to end #carnism and #motornormativity, then why does it continue?

the article in #theguardian place the responsibility on a "minority rightwing voices" that are somehow forcing the ecoconcious majority to eat #pigs and drive #cars despite not really wanting to.

did they swap your #tofu with pig sausages in your shopping basket or your fridge? did they hypnotize you to buy a #tesla against your will instead of an #ebike?

in my view, a much more likely answer is a hypocritical mentality of "everyone else are the problem", which would also explain the underestimated support for green policies.

a climate spokesperson for the danish environmentalist party ( #theresascavenious from #alternativet) was campaigning for a reduction in airplane travel, yet was regularly flying copenhagen - aalborg, and resolutely defending her right to this, despite there being excellent train connection on that journey.

most of my family support " #lessmeat", but oppose me fiercely when i suggest we eat one single #plantbased meal together.

often there is a direct connection of conscience laundering between supporting abstract policies while opposing actual tangible action right in front of us: we fill our plates with sausages made from pigs choked in a #gaschamber while me claim to support policies better #animalwelfare.
