He may be mostly irrelevant now, but I'll still be partying when baby bush kicks the bucket. It absolutely would've been better if he'd been held accountable for his crimes, but short of that, I'll still be glad to learn that I no longer share this planet with that cretin. I'll take what I can get.

Reply to comment by flabberghaster in I should go back to being vegetarian again by flabberghaster
This reads like an attempt at deflection by self-deprecation to me, so I'll say that we all have a duty to uphold justice in every aspect of our lives. We may be fallible by nature, but that doesn't excuse us from trying to be better. I doubt you really think of yourself as a bad person, but in case you do - what are you doing to be better? Shrugging your shoulders and saying "well, I guess I'm not a good person then" doesn't absolve you.
Forgive my bluntness, but the animals are suffering and dying on an unimaginable scale. Going vegan isn't a "personal choice" - it's a moral necessity.

There are two big jumps around September 2014 and April 2015; I guess you either downloaded a bunch of stuff at once, or downloaded some very big files then?

Sorry for the very late response; I've been busy lately and haven't logged on in a while. My experience was somewhat different, because I watched Earthlings (a documentary on slaughterhouses and factory farms), and I knew I had to go vegan immediately. I couldn't justify one more non-vegan purchase, not even in the name of a "baby steps" transition, because I would still be causing harm to animals during that process. For me, the switch was actually pretty easy, because I just looked up vegan recipes for all of my favorite foods, and made those. Purging my mind of toxic masculinity was easily ten times more difficult than going vegan. I (and every other feminist) still expect male chauvinists to do that, no matter how difficult it may be for them, because there is no justification for continuing to cause harm once they know better. I don't see why it should be any different with veganism.
If you absolutely must take things one step at a time, just remember that every non-vegan meal is still causing harm to animals. The quicker you can make the switch, the better.

She responded, and said that's sweet, but she can't claim credit for everything, since it's a group effort of a lot of people. She says one of the coolest lessons to learn is that regular working class people can do nearly anything when they get organized. She encourages you to start your own group!

If you can be vegetarian, going vegan is a pretty easy step from there! It's much better for your health, the environment, and most importantly the animals. https://veganbootcamp.org/ is a great resource!
