the us is 50% farmland. this gallup poll https://news.gallup.com/poll/240515/americans-try-eat-locally-grown-foods.aspx says that most Americans eat foods grown locally. most of the shit they eat comes from farms not that far from where they live
On top of that if you live in the imperial core and your food is grown locally it is grown on stolen land and probably grown in an unsustainable and ecologically destructive way.
most people that live in the imperial core also eat locally farmed food. vegans usually have to use substitutes and sometimes those substitutes rely on food grown in the global south bc it tastes better or some shit
answer me this: with the current state of the world that we live in right now, is it fesable for literally every single person on Earth to go vegan right now?
yes and in an ideal society everyone should be vegan. it would be hypocritical for me to be all smug about this whole I type out this comment on a $1000 device with minerals mined also by the global south.
but a lot of vegans do have a high horse to stand up on (you can see this in the thread rn) and don't like to experience any cognitive dissonance that their lifestyle is a western luxury so I thought it would be funny to trigger that
gimme a break. people do actually enjoy programming even if its their job
