For example, I don’t use TikTok. I never have, and I never will, and I’d advise everyone else to get off the platform too. I genuinely believe it’s objectively harmful to people’s mental health and possibly even a threat to democracy. That said, I also believe people should be free to decide for themselves whether they want to use it or not, which is why I’m against the U.S. government banning it.

    Lol why do you remove your own default upvote?

    And no, your far-too-long explanation seemed to indicate to me at least you were having cognitive dissonance between your desire to not eat meat and your addiction to meat.

      I see. The first response to a pro-vegetarian/vegan comment is usually about the harm done to other organisms that we can’t avoid. Thus I wanted to clarify in advance that my goal is not the ideal world, but a world where we at least don’t eat what we wouldn’t kill ourselves.

      Oh, I remove the default upvote, because I don’t see the point of it.
