Ah I see the confusion. I went back and edited my comment to hopefully make it more clear.

It is but it doesn’t stop a massive corporate industry from growing around it as the original comment implied would happen with cannabis.
Tobacco Industry: “Am I a joke to you?”
The “pro life” party sure seems to get something out of killing people
TilTok likely got my car stolen (Hyundai vulnerability trended on TikTok)
THE RAPTURE WILL HAPP^EN
At this point I feel more threatened by cops than I do by whatever they’re supposed to be “protecting us” from.
To be fair, it’s one of the more reasonable superstitions considering the potential of being hit by a heavy falling object.
“Give us what we want or we’ll shit in the pool and ruin it for everybody.”
I knew this day would come but nonetheless I was not prepared for it…
You seem to assume I’m arguing in favor of vegan cats.
Whether or not a cat can thrive on a vegan diet is irrelevant to me as I don’t own a cat nor do I advise people on how to feed their cats. However, I do have a bias (as we all do) that tells me there is likely more nuance (which you did allude to in your original reply) than the general absolutist sentiment against the idea.
That bias is informed by half-a-lifetime of experience maintaining a loosely plant-based diet myself and witnessing first-hand the fierce compulsion people have to push their uneducated opinions at the mere mention of a plant-based diet. In my experience, there are few other things that can so reliably stir people into a vitriolic frenzy than the suggestion of a plant-based diet.
And to back up that bias, I now have my first negative comment after almost a year on Lemmy :-)
Frankly, you may as well be pulling all that out of your ass since the information you just provided is as good as useless without any reliable sources backing it up (and don’t bother providing any, I’m not here to educate myself on cat diet requirements. If I cared, I would ask a qualified professional not a Lemmy user).
I’m just calling out the hypocrisy in this whole controversy. People do a quick Google search, read “obligate carnivore” in the title of some document and act as if they’ve got a college degree on the subject.
Who knew that so many Lemmy users were experts in the science of dietary nutrition?
These corporate media companies are all the same and are a blight upon our society.
We need more people like you! Thanks for helping us move forward.
I’m jealous! I’d love to do all those things to my house. Unfortunately, I’m priced out of homeownership in my area. So I rent and all the money I’d otherwise be spending on climate-friendly upgrades are instead financing my landlord’s wealth accumulation.
Lol, as a programmer who uses generative AI myself, I would genuinely love to see them try.
It’s without a doubt motivated by their own loss of revenue but a consumer friendly take is still commendable
My dad was recently telling me a story from back in the 90s when he worked in a rural Wisconsin town close to the Illinois border and his co-workers would “joke” about shooting at cars with Illinois license plates. It’s crazy to me just how long the right has had a culture of sharing fantasies about being violent towards the left. It’s no wonder that the vast majority of mass shooters turn out to be far right nut jobs, they’ve been raised in a culture that glorifies violence against people they disagree with.
It’s great as essentially a StackOverflow that I can talk to in real time. But as with SO, I’ve still got to figure out what pieces are legit and where they go.
