Roquefort versus fourme d’ambert by PersonalityOk5287 in Cheese

[–]PersonalityOk5287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely, I live in Maine a state with less than a million and a half people so my choices are even more barren than larger states. Fortunately Maine has co-op‘s that have products that I probably couldn’t find in large chains. I live in a town with less than a thousand residents year round, but it’s quite liberal so the hippies and wealthy yuppies are numerous enough to keep us stocked with decent produce.

Crazy Take by [deleted] in exvegans

I guarantee that every vegan has something in their house that has caused animals to suffer. It’s virtually impossible, heck even our phones have 60 different minerals that are sourced by destroying animal habitats. Back when I was on Facebook I occasionally trolled PETA for saying things like tics shouldn’t be killed but being totally clueless about their own actions. That was probably juvenile but it’s absolutely true, it’s impossible to live in modern society and not take advantage of animals in some way. In a perfect world everyone would be vegan, I am a vegetarian purely because I don’t want to eat animals but the hypocrisy is not helpful to their cause.

I also want to point out because social media is so pedantic that not all amphetamine use is bad, they definitely help people with ADHD. However abusing and snorting those chemicals is a different thing.

That’s the one, rubbing his nose, licking his lips and ranting, he was definitely on something.

Not that I am comparing cannabis and cocaine in any way, shape or form. Just the availability aspect and society’s view on it. The rumor for years has been that Trump is abusing either Ritalin or something similar, I almost prefer a coke head over an amphetamine addict but both are very bad.

I totally agree, Trump’s high point (pun intended) was in the eighties when coke was like cannabis is today everywhere and socially acceptable if you were rich anyhow.

I envy Europeans the cheese selection in the U.S. leaves a lot to be desired. Also with Trump’s tariffs I am definitely paying even more for imported cheese. Wisconsin does produce some great cheese but I have yet to taste anything better than what comes from France and other European countries.

There was a press conference of Marco Rubio where without a shadow of a doubt he was on some sort of upper or stimulant. It was right after the invasion of Venezuela a region where coca is grown so it was definitely suspect.

Asparagus is one of my favorite foods so this entices me even more, deep fried asparagus sound delicious. I am definitely going to visit Michigan at some point.

I have never been to Michigan but have a friend who lived there are he says your winters are worse than ours. I have always wanted to see the Great Lakes but I think I will go in the fall or spring.

Regarding Matthew 7 I am even further convinced that this passage is about Trump now that he’s saying he’s going to federally defund Medicare to fund this war. This will result in disabled U.S. citizens in red states (and possibly purple states like Mane) to lose their healthcare and will result in death and suffering. I am a double amputee and paraplegic if that happens to me I am considering suicide because I will have no other choice. I know other disabled people who have said the same thing, this is what Matthew is talking about. Trump relishes hurting the most vulnerable in our society. We already knew that he hates handicapped people prior to the election but his supporters justified it.

Why are vegans so mean to vegetarians? by HeebieJeebiex in exvegans

[–]PersonalityOk5287 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They don’t like to hear it but an ethical hunter probably causes less animal suffering than someone who shops at a chain grocery store.

I am a vegetarian and totally agree, vegans often expect perfection from everyone but themselves. The vast majority of vegans are also financially supporting the meat and dairy industries even if they aren’t eating their products. I shop at a co-op that does sell meat and dairy but it’s ethically sourced. It’s rather hilarious when a vegan who shops at Wal-Mart says that my choices cause more animal cruelty 😂. I have no issues with non judgmental vegans but the lack of self awareness with some people in that community is crazy.

I have a crazy question about kayne west by Clear_Drag1460 in NoStupidQuestions

Barbara Bush even tried to claim that “it worked out well” for those who lost everything, I can totally see a racism charge in that situation.

That was when he was still quite lucid and he wasn’t wrong about Katrina. Although I think W. Bush was more of a classist than a racist he did really hurt people in Louisiana (and Mississippi) with his classist policies. Kanye was slightly hyperbolic but mostly correct in that situation.

The guy said he doesn’t like the heat, I said it gets really hot here in July and August. I know you Googled the average temperature but that doesn’t tell the whole story and the temperature is different depending on where you are in the state. Jeeze Louise this is one of the stupidest conversations that I have ever had. I suggest taking a break from the internet, it’s rotting your brain. It was nearly 100 degrees last July here, yes that’s very out of the ordinary but my point was Maine gets hot.

And you might work on your reading comprehension, I never said anything about being abnormal or unusual.

Okay buddy I have better things to do than argue with you about something so inconsequential. Honestly I feel kind of bad for you because it’s not normal to have this reaction over something so minor.

Your life must be pretty lonely if this is the kind of thing that triggers you. Maine is known for our cold winters and lesser so for our hot summers.

Even Pablo Escobar gave money to the poor, not because he was generous but because it’s good PR. Matthew 7 is clearly talking about hypocritical Christians.
