Western leftists: eat less meat, that is individual choice and it matters greatly!
Global south: burn less carbon, pls, the ocean is drowning us
Western leftists: :pit: :pit: :pit:
You are acting like it is our job in this thread to create a rally cry you deem acceptable. The understanding that the majority of the damage happens at production and not consumption is not false, and no anecdotes or metaphors about Quakers serve as a counter argument. At least one person here posted theory right from the source about this. Take it up with Marx and Engels and their understanding of modes of production, cause that is where so many of us are coming to our conclusion.
People have not opted out of trying just because they recognize that shaming individuals for consumer choices wont make a difference or is just about ones' own sense of being better. Consumer choices are not the only tools we have at our disposal, but more than that, complaining about people complaining about corporations and strawmanning some imagined leftist is not creating allies either. Stop calling the kettle black
I'm not doing that at all.
I think this conversation has reached the end of its potential usefulness, I'm starting to only get subject changes and baseless accusations.
Hope you're not like this in irl organizing.
This is a convo on an internet forum over a fucking meme, there was never any potential usefulness. You act sanctimonious, get called on it, and then decide everyone else is acting shitting for telling you you are being rude. Youve made nothing but baseless accusations and wild subject changes in every response in this thread, and yet you cannot see that? The level of dissonance is mindboggling. No one asked to have a conversation with you on the nature of organizing, YOU decided everyone else was arguing against boycotts and not the meme that the thread is built around.
I hope you are not like this irl in any sense or I pray for the poor service workers or mailpeople you gaslight into a debate they are not interested in having. No one here asked you for a debate on the 50 topics you decided we all disagree with you on. Self crit or shut the fuck up with the mammoth replies cause I've been trying to nicely say leave me alone for a day now
