Aw, hush. That’s a needlessly antagonistic take.

Someone can say “I like driving” without us assuming that they’re totally ignorant of the negative externalities.

I can say “I like ice cream” without you having to say “you like saturated fat??? you like increasing your risk of diabetes????”



You killing yourself is not the same as someone killing the planet.

Can you not see why people care about the planet they inhabit??


But you do like ice cream? You like millions of animals getting killed? People getting killed from antibiotics no longer working? Water shortages? The planet getting killed?

I don't know what you're trying to achieve with your comment, but I'm quite sure I didn't turn you vegan just now.

Even if you care about not killing the planet, what matters is not that you make it clear that you do, but that you're effective in preventing that from happening.
