    Yes, yes, I agree. It is better to not take any steps against the machine unless it will fully solve the problem.

    In the meantime, we must all accept things as they are and continue to purchase goods and services at a predictable and easily forecasted rate of profit.

      Unless you're taking part in some organized political group that's actively pursuing the goal of animal liberation (and if you are, great job) you are taking no steps against the machine yourself. This lifestylism bullshit isn't saving any lives, it's just giving you a morality chub to stroke all over the internet

          Animal liberation isn't the top of my political agenda. I take part in local organizations pursuing other goals. If it is your top priority then great, but I hope you're actually doing something about it other than buying the Che Guevara tee shirt equivalent of putting a "my food is grown, not raised" bumper sticker on your car
