    “We” aren’t killing ourselves. “We” are being killed. And “We” know exactly who is doing all that the killing.

      You could say so. But COVID-19 has told me otherwise. Any kind of lifestyle change in the face of an impending disaster will be met with extreme resistance by regular people.

      What people want is a solution to problems they don’t have to think about, do anything for, and/or change anything about themselves for.

      So yes, “we” are killing ourselves.

        I went vegan in order to try and make a positive change. my reasoning is that how can you change the world of you can’t even change what you eat for breakfast.

        It’s a lot easier to change lifestyles once society rids itself of the people who are getting rich from the current lifestyles.
