How about we get rid of fossil fuels? You dont' need to commute daily by car to your negative worth sales job. Lots of people actually hate their jobs under capitalism but no one says you know what? I actually really hate eating meat but I feel like I'm forced to do it anyway. People enjoy food. It's one of the few joys many have left in our hell society.
Your solution to the environmental damage caused by agriculture is "eat less food." That's not a solution at all! My solution is that amazing experiences that human culture and society can provide us is 35% of the problem so let's address the other 65% because that's the shit that doesn't make life worth living. Shipping consumer electronics 8,000 miles just to throw away within a year doesn't make anyone happy. Spending 2hours a day commuting via car to some shitty office so that you can sell more consumer junk doesn't make anyone happy. These are the things that should be changed. The fact that people eat different food then you should be celebrated. Human culture is awesome and a world where we all eat the same food because it's the most efficient isn't a world worth living in.
Ahahaha. Being worried about fossil fuels is a "concern troll?" Ok it's obvious now that you care more about virtue signaling against "carnists" and their "treats" as long as you can continue driving your SUV around. The suburbs and your entire car-centric lifestyle is coming to an end, thankfully. Meanwhile I'll enjoy my urban-raised chickens and daily eggs while you complain to the manager of Whole Foods that they are out of imported tofu again.
Is there a reason you keep posting 4chan images?
