I've never understood how cannibalism went this viral. The head of the UAW union was wearing a pro-cannibalism shirt at the strikes! Mystifying.

I don't know if you're serious, but in case you are, "eat the rich" isn't supposed to literally mean "eat the rich".

It's more of a metaphor, taking their wealth, "eating what they have", so to say.

There has to be a mod rule against reading things in the most bad faith way.

If an overt call to carve up and eat billionaires is needed, I am most happy to supply my own personal philosophy, that I am vegan except if I get to eat the rich (literally).

"Carbon footprint" was invented by oil and gas companies to shift the blame to consumers.

Funny how every time somebody mentions "reducing consumption" people jump into comments to insist, no, reducing personal consumption is a scam, only political action matters, keep buying everything you want.

It's like people making a personal choice to reduce consumption is a threat to someone. Probably someone who manufactures the stuff we consume.

Look. Corporations aren't scared of political environmental action in the West. They've bought the politicians, they control the levers of power, they're confident they'll win the political fight. What corporations worry about is people buying less shit and reducing their profits, which will take away the money they need to buy politicians and win the political fight.

The personal is political.
