That's why they hate us deep down. They can't reconcile the fact that they are not actually the most progressive and tolerant person in the room.
We actually support the LGBT community, we don't just say we do. We don't just wait until politicians finally get on this side of the fence and then cheer when they finally get on the right side of history.
Liberals are the kind of person to say their community is accepting of all genders, all nationalities, all minorities etc. but then not ban fascists who threaten that acceptance (and even lives) because everyone deserves free speech. It's like they walk half the way, then suddenly stop and stand there, claiming this is actually where the trail ends even though you and they can clearly see the trail keeps going beyond the horizon.
We have better politics in all ways.
- We actually want things to get better
- We actually don't want people to die, no matter if it's from homelessness, hunger, or Ukraine.
- We actually want to hold our politicians accountable.
- Shit, we actually want competent officials.
- We actually want democracy, not whatever capitalism passes off as democracy (hey here's a riddle, you get to vote every 4 years and your boss can decide your schedule without consulting you! Is that democracy?)
- We actually recognize fascism, even when it comes from liberals.
- We actually fight against it too.
- We are able to deeply analyze societal issues and not simply repeat from our high school history lessons.
- We know our history and geopolitics. Liberals will repeat from NATO propaganda. We've actually read about it.
This is impossible to the liberal who thinks so highly of themselves that they must, by default, be the most accepting and progressive person in the world.
And so they resort to calling you a CCP shill instead of actually examining their privilege and positions.
Face it liberals, we are actually the person you think you are. Not the person you want to be, because you don't want to be anything other than what you are right now (because as a liberal you are, after all, perfect). But the person you and your fellow liberals spent years building up as being a pretty great guy.
And yes that includes whatever the fuck conservatives think they are.
I think this same argument is also very true when talking about veganism as well
HERE IT IS GUYS LET THE MONTHLY VEGAN STRUGGLE SESSION BEGIN
Veganism is very much a divided topic for many comrades (vegan btw)
Yeah, I'm divided on veganism.
I support mandatory enforced veganism but am not currently vegan.
Animals are comrades, and every carnist product you use right now has easier and cheaper replacements. There's a ton of vegan comrades like myself who'd be glad to help you get started down that path.
The main thing for me is laziness. I hate cooking, and it's difficult to have lower active prep time than eg throwing a frozen pizza in the oven and walking away. Naturally, none of the prepared/frozen vegan meals near me are even remotely as cheap as the carnist ones. This is why I support enforced veganism: with the proper policies (eg turning meat subsidies into lentil subsidies) vegan options would be way cheaper.
Anyway, since you offered advice, do you know of any dinners that would take 5 minutes or less active prep time? Again, and I cannot stress this enough, I hate cooking.
Pasta is a super easy thing I have relatively often. Just boil some water in one pot and some tomato sauce in another. It’s a quite easy meal that’s cheap and the store bought stuff is still quite good
Huh, for some reason I'd just assumed pasta had milk or butter or something mixed in with the flour but apparently not (for the boxes in my cupboard anyway). Perfect example, comrade!
Some does but both what you make and what you buy generally isn’t going to (at least in my experience). Some types has eggs but most certainly not all
Go to an int'l or asian grocery store and buy some ramens. A surprising number of them are vegan, and they're incredibly tasty, and there's a lot of variety.
But long term, you should learn to enjoy cooking, and eat veggies. You eating living beings who don't want to suffer, out of sheer laziness, is not an excuse.
