Similarly, areas surrounding DC in Maryland and Virginia should be labeled DMV, not Chesapeake.

You're right, it is much worse. The goal is to breed them as quickly as possible, use them for their wool while they are useful for it, and kill them much younger than their lifespan for their meat. I think it would be a kindess to slowly stop that torturous cycle.

Ignoring the news frenzy for a second, Boeing's engineering-first culture has steadily degraded since their merger with McDonnell Douglas in the late 90s. Given that a lot of planes from that era are still in service, it takes time to design and build planes, and it took time for Boeing's culture to shift, I think we're only just now seeing the major impacts from cost cutting and ignoring safety concerns. There is still a ton of regulation in the commercial flight sector that is steadily degrading, but I think that has also played a part in maintaining safety up until recently. So expect stories like this to continue to happen unless there is a major effort to further regulate Boeing (lol).

What is this comment trying to accomplish, other than picking a fight to prove the point of the post? Even if what you say is true (no desire to check), a huge part of being vegan is dealing with the frustrations of living in a non-vegan society. This is supposed to be a safe space to vent about those frustrations. You should respect that.

He pulled this type of shit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeju_uprising.

We're splitting hairs here but he was a US puppet that happily killed his opposition.

It's perfectly fine to use "whataboutism" to counter tired talking points that do nothing to advance actual discourse. Like yea, people died in capitalist countries too, how is that in any way advancing a discussion about these differing economic systems. Go a step further, ask why these things happened in communist countries. Think about how they differ from similar situations in a capitalist country. Engage with the ideas and then we can have honest discourse.
