Suppliers meet a demand. Dismantle one, or all of them, and the demand will continue if the consumer’s attitude isn’t changed, it’ll just be a black market. There’s no formal crack industry but there’s still supply and demand. Blaming your meat eating on the existence of suppliers is one of the saddest blame shifts and lack of personal accountability statements I’ve ever read. Trying to convince me that if the industry was removed that humanity would accept it as the new norm is… unrealistic.

My abandoning of the moral high ground approach, which you suggested does not get people to change, is indeed a cocky spin on your words (I thought that was obvious) because you acknowledge it’s the moral high ground then demand to be left alone to indulge your derelict morality. If you concede moral superiority, prepare to be called out for your lower standards. Escalate with snark, get snark thrown back at you. Don’t like it? Go find some echo chamber where you don’t have to have your values challenged.

But quick question, you said to go after the industry, not people, but then agreed when I said the industry is people. So who exactly am I supposed to be targeting?
