Hi again Hart. You said I wouldn’t stand a chance with you in a debate. I’m not offended by that at all , but your statement has made me suspicious. Why would one environmentalist, as you claim to be, debate against another environmentalist? Are you in fact a hidden mouthpiece for big Ag or other destructive industries? And when do you want to debate? If you can a arrange a radio show to debate I’m ready and you can attempt to debunk my claims about the unsustainability of animal production. You never did me or any of the readers here the favor of explaining the “sloppy” or “unclear” conclusions in the animal Ag study I showed. You’d be doing us and the whole world a favor if you could go step by step by posting a copy of the report you’re familiar with. Just waiting. Chris Hedges I’m sure would appreciate it, he interviewed the makers of Cowspiracy which is still on YouTube for free. Thanks.
I read the whole discussion between you and Hart. You come across in the end like a zealot idiot.
Shit, you don’t even know what pain really is and yet somehow it’s a moral foundation for your entire worldview?
Outta here with your bullshit.
What’s pain according to you?Animal Ag is a major cause of environmental destruction and pain and suffering to animals, those are the facts.Being indifferent to either doesn’t change those facts and if you don’t support or like veganism, you don’t have to be one. And my worldview and mission is to help promote it and I’m glad I have that, it’s important for me. Also, this is a public area for any opinion, you don’t have the right or the power to shut me up nor I have the power to shut you up which is what it should be. I’m not in your living room or personal space. Do you realize this is Chris Hedges’ post? He may not like my approach but he’s a vegan and opposes factory farming as well, his interview about the movie Cowspiracy is still free to watch online. Those are also just the facts.You sound very hostile. I’m sorry about that. Have a better day.
Pain is an electrical impulse that lets animals know something is wrong.
It’s a major part of life on Earth and avoiding it not a great first principle.
