If everyone went plant based we would need much much less farmland and thus need way less fertilizer.

You're a silly goober aren't ya?

So what you're saying is.. just one more lane?

Calm the fuck down bud, I said nothing ableist at all.

You said "You personally not using something, doesn't mean others don't" and the whole tone of your comment sounds like you're against getting rid of straws.

Yes straws isn't single-handedly destroying the planet but not giving out needless plastic with every drink is still good.

Yes some people will still need straws, no one said "FUCK DISABLED PEOPLE, NO STRAWS FOR YOU" and when talking about general problems and solutions like this we all know there will be exceptions.

Bringing up fringes cases and making it sound like a general counter argument is silly.

And no I don't eat sea food or any other animals and yes I tell other people to stop too :)

Please stop bringing up fringe cases when talking about general problem, they could still have straws but the default is no straw, people that need it ask, or people that need straws could bring their own straws.

It's silly to use this to justify a straw coming with every drink ever.

Eh, there's been thousands upon thousands of expert yelling about this for decades and no government listened,

:)

I also feel this with veganism, it's crushingly depressing being surrounded by so much casual violence and if you bring it up people think you're a weirdo and mean..

Animal products are incredibly harmful to the climate and are inherently wasteful.

Those corporations get their money from people like you.

Yes regulation would be the best to stop them but you know that's not gonna happen any time soon, especially when everyone refuses to change their own habits, politicians aren't gonna force through regulations that get people angry because they want their steaks.

Why do you want to continue to participate in something bad until it's legally not allowed anymore?
Why not do what you can (stop consuming animal products) while also advocating for regulation and political change?

What does holding evil corporations accountable look like if not refusing to give them your money?
