Not everyone literally needs to stop buying meat for there to be an effect. I was trying to illustrate how supply and demand works. The people eat meat and other animal products, the more animals will be killed to meet that demand. Do you disagree that by buying a burger you are contributing to that demand? Don’t try to evade the question, give me a yes or no answer.
Either you are so dense that you genuinely cannot comprehend this very simple concept, or you are pretending to be dense so in order to avoid losing a debate on the internet. Either way you’re not someone worth talking to, so I’m going to end this conversation here.
If you understand that people produce things because people buy those things, and people will produce more of those things if you buy more of those things, then you are profoundly stupid
I’m sure they do. But when you buy things at a store, genuinely speaking those things were produced because someone is making money by doing so. Please only respond to this if you have something intelligent to add
>The people eat meat and other animal products, the more animals will be killed to meet that demand.
not only is this not causal, it doesn’t even hold up. how many 8-Bit nintendos do I need to buy to get 8-bit nintendos back into production? how many Faberge eggs do I need to buy to put fabergé eggs back into production?
unless you have a plan to get everyone to stop buying meat, this is moot.
meat was produced before anyone bought meat. there is no reason to believe it would stop.

this is a classic indicator of a false dilemma.

oversimplifying the situation doesn’t make it simple.

people produce things for all sorts of reasons
I’m sure they do. But when you buy things at a store, genuinely speaking those things were produced because someone is making money by doing so. Please only respond to this if you have something intelligent to add
I thought you were done
the producers are paid long before I walk into a store
have a nice day

supply and demand is a theory about price discovery
