Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

MODERATORS
I appreciate the point you're trying to make but if you look into it, our meat habit is far and away one of, if not the, biggest climate challenges we face. We cannot continue consuming meat at our current pace and curb global warming, it's that simple. And while my initial post is extremely judgemental, I really just wish people would start paying attention to how much meat they eat. Is it really necessary? Really? Every meal? Considering the resources meat requires to harvest, I don't think so, but, sure, harp on my clothes, bro/broette.
Why is a discussion necessary? The facts are there.
It's like global warming: at some point all you can do is be angry about it and keep pointing at reality.
It's not my problem that humans don't tend to care about facts. They're allowed to kill themselves.
You're assuming that I am desperate for people to listen to the truth. This is not so. If people prefer lies, that's fine.
Just to pass the time.
What argument?
citation needed
I mean, sure. Try a search engine. It's not exactly lost knowledge of the Ancients.
my searches don't substantiate your claim. i am not responsible for supporting your claim: you are. if you cannot, there is no reason to believe it to be true.
Okay, well then I guess you are terrible at internet searches, I'm not sure what to tell you. Invest in an education, my friend. Good luck.
EDIT: Here's a video I seem to remember was a decent basic summary. I can't be bothered beyond that bc I'm frankly skeptical of your sincerity.
I sincerely think you don't have evidence for your position
i still don't believe you, and no one should.
I edited in a link to a YouTube video in my last comment if you haven't seen it. Give that a watch I guess. Maybe it will answer your questions if you have the attention span to get through all twelve minutes or so.
But also do yourself a favor sometime, stop for a few moments and try to pin down why meat eating is such an important part of your identity and why you're so defensive about it. Like why do you care so much? Who taught you that?
Or don't. I'm not your dad.
if you can't even give a timestamp, I'm not clicking that video. maybe you did provide evidence, but it seems like you don't even know if you did.
I'm a philosopher. all I care about is the truth
I'm not defensive. I'm only interested in keeping the conversation honest, and you have made claims not supported by the facts
