    "Some of those are useless calories, we can't eat grass and on some lands where only grass grows so cows are a way of using that grass, but that's not the majority."

    most people don't want to eat soy cake, or crop seconds, or spoilage. feeding that to livestock is a conservation of resources, not a waste.

      Regular expressions are not that difficult and coders that refuse to learn them because they "look like line noise" are terrible at their jobs.

      Easy enough to write. But reading and maintaining? That's the hard part.

        the vast bulk of the food they eat is grown agriculturally.

        sure, but I can't eat cornstalks and I don't want to eat soy cake, so feeding that to livestock is a conservation of resources.

          Lemmy users project their toxicity towards Reddit. This place can be quite hostile if you don't echo the 'correct' ideals.

          The Lemmy users who call themselves "Leftists" are garbage human beings. Shitty, hostile, unnecessarily combative, will disagree with you about anything you say even when you're on the same page.

          And most of them aren't really that left. Trying to talk about abolition of police and prisons is something they would never agree to, even though it's a fundamentally leftist ideal. They're just bad people.

            Abortion should be mandatory.

            People keep arguing over whether abortion should be legal or not, but my opinion is that it should be forced on everyone whether they want it or not.
            Late term abortions up to 100 years after birth should also be considered for inclusion in this rule.

            One of my favourite activities is finding controversial opinions, then taking an opinion so extreme that it makes everyone else look like a centrist.

                The majority of all the plants that humans grow are fed to livestock.

                this is a lie

                  I would argue that it doesn't matter the reason.

                    Even if this were true, it does not address the moral argument that is at the root of this discussion. It's a way that you distract yourself from the moral component of your choices. It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it doesn't even matter if you believe it or not. It just has to distract you long enough that you get past the point where you might accidentally engage your empathy, and have a feeling you don't want to have.

                      I think this depends on where you live. If you live in the US, maybe. Private healthcare means the effects on the public are limited to traumatizing people, the services to dispose of your body, and EMS.

                      In area with socialized healthcare, ain't no way my taxpayer dollars are going towards fixing your head if you crash.

                          I prefer rap music by white artists because it's less likely to feature the N word.

                          I only listen to rap by artists that can write a full fledged symphonic track.

                              Human food crops could have been grown instead, on a fraction of the land.

                              human food crops are grown. soy is a great example. about 80% of soy is pressed for oil, and the byproduct is fed to livestock.

                                  the moral argument in this thread is about allocation of resources. if you want to make a separate moral argument, you're free to do so.

                                        Are you that blind to the world? Do you really look at something like.... The Trump administration, and think "Like, hw stupid can you all be? Who’s going to decide? Obvious professionals who know of kids and have worked with them. Social workers, pedopsychiatrist, teachers, etc.".

                                        Very clearly professionals and the people who have the best in mind are not the ones who are chosen by those in power. Get real, truly pathetic take

                                        Thinking that Trump and your shitty country is the only one in the world is pathetic to say the least. Nothing will work in your country (and I'm not talking just about kids but in general) but that doesn't mean it won't work in other countries as well 🤦‍♂️

                                          You should upvote that specific reply if you have more than 2 IQ.
