more like both can be true and one does not preclude the other. also, plenty of people literally can’t cut out animal products without compromising their health. the same can’t be said for ai.

Diary uses 4,555 billion liters of water, whereas AI uses 18.2 billion liters of water. Yes AI’s water use is still bad, but compared to animal agriculture’s water use, it’s like freaking out over one drop and completely ignoring the whole bucket caused from animal agriculture.

Just because something has been practiced for so long doesnt automatically make it justified. Slavery has been practiced for millennia, does that mean slavery is suddenly okay?

Not really. Everywhere i look that has to do with environmentalism, lacks this topic. You already know why. Its bc the majority of the population arent plant based, so they dont want to bring attention to the harms they themselves are causing, in order to not feel like a hypocrite. Like i bet youre not even plant based.

“you hate vegans” is such an odd take. my best friend is vegan, and i deeply admire their commitment and willingness to change their lifestyle for a cause they believe in. i wish i could be vegan! but i can’t without compromising my health and that’s true for a lot of people. we focus on ai because we lived without it for thousands of years. not using chatgpt is far easier than going vegan and is doable for pretty much everyone, unlike veganism.

Okay but not true for the entire fucking population? Those who cant go vegan are a minority. The majority of people are able to be vegan. But yes not using AI is easier. That doesnt discount the fact that animal agriculture is far worse and a far bigger problem than ai though.

Also the post i was quoting was acting like the only reason for global warming was ai which is obviously stupid. Why not say “problems can have more than one catalyst” to that post then? Its because you are a “current thing” activist, and only care abt ai bc thats the trendy thing to be against/care about. God forbid someone brings up another industry that is contributing far worse damage to the environment, bc you all support it and hate feeling guilty abt your contribution.

not that it’s your business, but i already have a pretty restrictive diet due to food intolerances. if i went vegan, i’d be cutting out even more food and not getting proper nutrition, and/or would have to spend ridiculous amounts of money and energy to find/make vegan foods that also fit in my dietary restrictions
