Not sure how I am an example. Please explain.

And I also don’t understand how up and downvotes can form an opinion for you. If that’s all it takes for you to make a decision, then you aren’t being very critical of what you are seeing. Surface level understanding plagues right wing nut jobs like yourself.

Using “woke” unironically and getting downvoted means you are, in fact, a dumb ass.

You don’t have good morals. Go read this, learn, and acquire them. Or just spout off hate speech and get downvoted/deleted again.

Yeah, no.

I refuse to be inclusive to someone who can’t be inclusive themselves. And this has nothing to do with the way anyone votes, so I am not sure how trying to educate you impacts how together we all are in voting away the fascism.

I’m not morally superior, either. I just have morals.

It’s not about not labeling bad people a certain way, it’s about not using what has become a slur to describe them at the expense of those who have been labeled that for real medical reasons. And who have been labeled that because they are different.

You sound really fucking stupid right now, and I have explained why. If you can’t bear to change for the better, you may as well be one of the idiots on the right. I’m not convinced you aren’t, actually. As the other guy stated, you have an entire dictionary of words you could use that aren’t at the expense of others, but your small mind can’t even find one that isn’t the bad one. You are the problem here.

Progressivism is about making progress. Being better/doing better when given the opportunity to do so. You seem to not understand that.

Just. Do. Better. That’s all anyone is asking. You are using the same illogical tactics that the right uses to defend a word that is no longer used as it has been co-opted by people that use it in a harmful way. We move on, choose more inclusive language, and that helps people. Especially when others don’t have to figure out the context of the word to decide if you are being descriptive or just an asshole. Right now, you are being an asshole…and looking at the votes it looks like others agree.

Why continue? You are the one that can’t figure out new words and terms. Do you have a learning disability? (For reference, this is what is most commonly accepted terminology these days. For anyone with a physical disability or from a disease process, “person with” followed by the disability or illness is what is used eg: person with Mamothmothman disease.)

Hope this helps, but it sounds like it won’t.

Your mom? lol don’t be a twat because you are wrong.

There is never an appropriate time to use that word. Grow up.

You are disparaging people with mental deficiencies by using the r word. I am defending them, not the klansmen.

Can you read?

Lynching in the US is broadly seen as an extrajudicial killing by way of hanging. Historically, that’s what it is most of the time.

You are wrong in saying that we must fight by “being creative, educating, reasoning and having the moral high-ground” because these fucks lack the ability to reason. The state of things is that it is a cult, a disease within our system and must be fought with tools they understand. Punching a nazi is not even remotely the same as a lynching, and is more akin to defense of the community.

I believe your inability to tell the difference between a nazi and historical victims of lynchings is a problem. We shouldn’t even have nazis anymore. Your line of thinking that being creative is gonna solve things is the same kind that the anti-vax idiots that have brought back eradicated illnesses have. The vaccine for nazis is violence, not horse dewormer or moral high ground.

Anyone with a sense of decency. So, not you apparently.

You are being downvoted because we don’t use the r word anymore. Don’t be one of them.

I’m not sure how you expect to deal with people on the right that actively want to kill off anyone who disagrees with them. Unfortunately, violence must be met with violence. And no one mentioned lynching until you just did. Are you ok?

So, the Hitler problem could have just been resolved with words and policy?

“they can choose not to do that. it’s not as though they literally re-order every product the moment they sell a unit.”

No shit. Most stock systems just remove that item from current inventory, and when it gets too low it triggers a reorder request.

Corporations do not abide by ethics. They do not care about anything but increasing profits. So not buying certain things causes stock to sit, and in this case expire. That hurts their bottom line, and so it is more likely to trigger change in the form of them no longer stocking said item to sell. Are you really this dense?

By giving them your money, you are funding the operation of the plants that produce the meat. And lining the pockets of those that make the decisions to act this way. It is not meaningless.

If you don’t give them money, it hurts their bottom line and forces either change or the shutting down of the business. You can speak volumes through making more ethical decisions about where your money goes.

By purchasing meat from companies like this, you absolutely are. Support your local butcher if you do consume.
