You buy chicken feed?
That chicken feed grown on farmland that used to be woodland and is now sprayed with pesticides to increase yield?
Is it shipped to the store on diesel trucks?
I don't want to judge you, this isn't about any one person. It's about how all of us are part of the system. We all benefit and we all suffer from it. No ethical consumption under capitalism.
I joined this conversation replying to someone who said they don't benefit from the capitalist pollution system. They do, I do, you do. None of us is independent.
Sooner or later we're going to have to give up these capitalist luxuries. Only then can we experience the riches of socialism. They won't be the same riches. We're going to need to change.
We were buying feed, but we are working on a formula for a mash-feed based off grain and grass we grow. I know it is just an example of the larger problem you mentioned we are all living through, but all of us can refuse to partake by buying second hand and growing what we can ourselves. Small animals are a very effective source of protein and don't have nearly the same carbon footprint that beef or pork has. Just here to offer a different perspective on the issue we both see/acknowledge.
