Always extremely weird seeing my posts getting renlogged to my dashboard by people who are not mutuals. I feel like I should sound the alarms for a containment breach.

Western countries are not the pinnacle of progression and acceptance and diversity. Other countries, especially "third world" countries, are not "behind" the West in terms of feminism or queer rights or anything along those lines. Changing laws in those countries are not a sign that they're "catching up" to the West.

We are not the end goal that the rest of the world should be striving towards and it's absurd that this is still an attitude I'm seeing in 2023 from self-proclaimed leftists and liberals.

i think ppl need to stop calling others insane for liking a season they don't like because summer is not the same in every country and neither is winter just talk about which season you like the most and go 😭

who started this "if you post something on the internet it means its a free for all and we can do whatever we want with it" thing because its simply... not true. even in public boundaries are allowed to exist

not to go over this again but you literally cannot be a environmental activist and not be against settler colonalism like you are not a environmental activist of you think that shit is ok. every part of settler colonalism is environmental and ecological destruction....

Addition to the “you literally cannot be a(n) environmental activist and not…” Eat Vegan. Yes the vast majority of the world’s environmental destruction is carried out by major international evil-corps, but if you are focused on personal steps to help stem the actual fraction individuals cause, then eating vegan helps eliminate one of the biggest sources of greenhouses, Factory Farming / Industrial livestock production.

Plus you’re addressing the other two main reasons behind vegan living: moral and health.

Unneeded addition that was very much rooted in the settler colonist mindset OP was talking about, hope this helps

Veganism is no more moral than eating meat, and is far more a sign of wealth and privilege than anything. Indigenous people the world over were not destroying the world by eating meat, the people of Alaska who still hunt whale and seal (usually only a few times a year to feed whole villages) aren't destroying the world. The maasai are less destructive to lions than shell.

And your vegan diet is based on slave labor full stop. Poc have been saying for generations at this point. Imperial core veganism is predicated on slavery and slave labor, and thats before I bring up how it's currently one of the causes of massive clear cutting, destruction of indigenous land rights, food production, arts, crafts, I could go on. Corn production is horrid for the soil, the volume of fertilizer that used that ends up in water sources is one of the reasons theres no more clean water on earth. Industrial agriculture is absolutely fucking killing us on the veggie and the meat side. Climb off your high horse and maybe ask a follow up question of yourself when you think you found an answer to a large question and you'll make less an ass of yourself and come off much less as "enlightenment prick"

We could switch the whole world to vegan diets and it would help not a thing.
