Less our dynamic adaptability, and more due to our evolutionary adaptations. We have several super-powers when it comes to working hard in the heat. They mainly don't work in high humidity, however.

What is one even supposed to be afraid of in this situation

[โ€“] jerkface@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

a concerning lack of intelligence.

This reads like you are so insecure you have to personally attack people to cope with your own emotions.

There are a ton of good reasons to eat fewer animal products...

And none of those reasons are veganism. Veganism provides a singular reason to not exploit animals any more than we need to for survival.

The animals we create ARE morally equivalent to our own children and are owed EXACTLY THE SAME unconditional love and protection.

The pigs are sufficient all on their own. Or do you only help vulnerable individuals when there is something in it for you personally?

This is such a blatant thought-terminating cliche. Those people are already looking for any excuse to disregard their own cruelty and violence. Tell me, Courtney, what COULD I have said that would have moved your heart? Seriously, tell me. What could I say to you that would make you sit with your cruelty and violence for even a moment? The truth is, you don't fucking WANT me to make arguments that you will engage with, you don't want to engage with them in the first place. It's not the argument, it's fucking YOU, Courtney.

Yes, you certainly can. This isn't a "pick one" or even a "pick two" situation. A single example among millions: lentils are cheap, healthy, and rehabilitate the soil they are grown in. We are induced to make needless tradeoffs that do not benefit us, but rather benefit industrialists.

There is nothing stopping you from continuing your studies.

The fuck it's not about the pigs. That's like saying child rape isn't about the children. What the fuck?

Yes, slaves are super convenient. No one ever said that slaves aren't nice to have, dude. YOUR experience is not the fucking point.

There is no way to create a creature for the express purpose of exploitation that is okay. There is no way to create a creature with the intention of forcing it into a state of total dependence that is not actually evil.

This is such a bike shed issue. You're being ridiculous.
