Different people react to different things. It takes many approaches to reach multiple types of humans.

I personally reacted after months of being shown hypocrisy, with the tipping point being when I said there’s no problem with eggs and dairy before I was shown what the egg and dairy industries do.

Part of that process was really realizing, not just knowing but consciously thinking about and considering the fact that humans are also meat. I am meat. The cats I loved were meat. My human family is meat. It’s not okay to eat them in a sandwich. Why is it okay to eat strangers in a sandwich?

No one approach will work on every human, and many people take a lot of different approaches over time to really understand.

Vegan is a philosophy, not a diet. The word you’re looking for is plant-based, not vegan.

A vegan wouldn’t buy leather shoes or woolen sweaters. Someone on a plant-based diet would.

Dogs taste better anyways. Can’t beat a good Elwood’s steak!

I gave you some from a girl to help balance things out!

But I can promise you, from many years net positive on reddit and a not disimilar result here, that you’re not reading your own tone.

Be mindful of the tone, only come off as combative against a near universally disliked topic, and know when you don’t care to curate yourself and are ready for the downvotes.

Your wording here makes you out to be combative, and people are combative in response. Read your own comments as if they’re directed AT you. And look specifically at what’s likely to make you want to argue back. You may even be surprised at what can get net positive response with the right wording.

This is what I use. Good to hear it’s not depreciated on more modern versions of the OS that my ol’ 6S Plus isn’t able to run.

Welp I just lost The Game. Thanks.

Was on Voyager until it updated past my old OS. Current version of Voyager no longer supports my old 6S Plus.

So now I’m on Thunder. It works. I liked Voyager better, but I won’t complain about an app that still works on my phone.

They cannot make me download their shit app, and when old.reddit dies then that’s when I stop going even my current once a month.

“We are selective about who we work with and trust with large-scale access to Reddit content.”

Sells everyone’s contributions to Google while blocking lesser evils

I am sure he may indeed have screwed Judy.

What a perfect comment to be interpreted in whichever way someone wants to interpret it.

I’ll trash on greedy Steve Huffman any day.

But in this particular case, we really need everyone we can get. If Reddit helps convince more people to vote (for Biden), then so be it.

Not a time to be picky about allies. Not when Trump has a good chance to become effectively the King of the USA.

The Game is the perfect counter/addition to Loss memes because every time I see a meme of Loss I know I just Loss The Game.

Then I get to say it and make othe people lose the game because of Loss. This makes me smile.

ITT people not recognizing that there’s a difference between comparing and equating.

People, it’s possible to make analogies to more serious situations without saying the two things are equal. The statement above is saying it’s there’s a shared mentality, not a shared level of consequence/seriousness.

uBlock Origin has spoiled me by allowing me to erase the shorts listings. So I don’t even know how bad it is for shorts.

Thanks. I just lost The Game.

I losst The Game before reading this because of the dang image.

Probably being unable to buy music when I was in my teens.

No job, no income, no way to get to the store anyway, and to top it off… half the music I liked I wouldn’t have been able to find anyways. (Fan songs/parodies)

So I learned that (free) YouTube downloaders and MP3 converters existed.

A bit later than that… NES/SNES games I wanted to play but those consoles were before my time. So I learned emulators existed.

So basically stuff I didn’t have access to otherwise.

Wait tgis is a real car? Wow I thought it was an art project or AI meme

So far as I know, they’re not shoving 20 ads in your face on every screen.

I know they’re far from perfect. Heck they have a forced arbitration clause in their ToS.

But compared to other services lately, Discord seems to mostly be trying to treat users as customers instead of products for advertisers. I’ll take it, and get some neat conveniences from Discord in turn.
