    I missed that question in the AMA, his answer is absolutely surreal.

    someone who won't make our audience feel attacked for not being able to afford plant-based alternatives

    Who the fucking hell is buying meat as a way to save money??!! Has he never checked the price of the food he buys to see which ones are the most expensive?

    it's just not as pressing an issue as the liberation of humanity

    It's well known that one can only care about one very specific thing at a time, and being against oppression as a whole is too much to ask.

    not everyone is able to live that lifestyle

    Yeah but 95% of people can very much do that, we aren't that many amazonian indigenous people.

    I've lost a lot of appreciation for JT after reading that, that's a lot of bullshit just to say "I don't wanna stop making 'bacon yummy' jokes".

      Yeah it felt like I was reading a liberal explain why they can't be vegan, not a principled communist who understand how to analyze topics critically. Honestly would have preferred that question go unanswered than have to read such a disappointing response
