I’ve got you even better. For the past 15 years I haven’t used a car to commute, and man do vegans NOT like the fact that their aesthetic lifestyle choice is meaningless compared to reliance on fossil fuels. Other countries have policies that genuinely reduce car culture, but holy fuck as soon as you suggest not living in the suburbs, vegans are up in arms about how America is just too big for such a thing to be possible.
“Aesthetic life choice” my ass lol. I am fortunate enough to not have to rely on a car (don’t even have a driver’s license) but suggesting others can when public transport in the US is that bad is just silly. Veganism is something you can actually easily practise though that has a meaningful impact on both the environment as well as animal well-being. This is not about “aesthetics”: it’s about making life on earth easier for everyone - both humans as well as animals alike.
