Whenever I see that I've received a reply here I get a little dopamine hit and I think "oh man, time to see what my fellow chapos think of what I've said!". This is even true when I've been arguing for veganism. Sure, there may be some disagreement, but it probably won't be super, dishearteningly nasty.
By contrast, every single time I see that orange envelope on reddit I tend to feel a little pang of anxiety and my first thought is always "oh fuck, what did I comment on again? Am I about to get some literal hate speech thrown my way?"
So yeah, thanks friends! Someday I may even ditch reddit for good because of you, and my life would be better for it.
Alright friendo, I'll be honest here, I don't really care if you eat honey or not. You do you. I'd still like to find an ethical sweetener, but if there isn't one, well, my clothes all get made by slaves in other parts of the world. Capitalism sucks, and being vegan is an easy way for me to feel a little less bad about my impact on the world.
alright pal, ill be honest here, i dont really care about having your approval or permission. you asked questions so i replied. and yeah, i get it, thats why i pointed out the whole ethical consumption thing being a pipe dream in the first place. best of luck looking for an ethical sweetner
