I am against animal agriculture for the same reason I am against sexism, racism, ableism, classism and homophobia.

The circumstances of a creatures birth does not dictate what it is “meant for”, every one deserves to live happy, healthily and with dignity, but some simply want to live.

  • Criticizing anti-capitalism media for existing in a capitalistic system is literally the last panel. I’m sure we agree on most things if you listened to ICHH as well, so I’m not trying to argue or start a fight.

    But Evans has to eat, pay rent and deserves to make profit off his time like the rest of us. Personally, I feel as if you’re falling into the “AoC/Bernie/Hasan has money and are hypocritical socialists” style trap, which is at best lazy and worst willfully ignorant of the context in which we all live.

    The podcast wouldn’t exist without ads, so ads are a weird thing to complain about. It’s the message that is important and ads don’t diminish that anti capitalistic message.




  • They aren’t wrong! Carter may have been the best president post office, but he is also the American most responsible for the religious dictatorship that took over Iran and much of the middile east.

    I’m a leftist, but after finishing “Reading Lolita In Tehran” and watching the PBS documentary “Taken Hostage” I understood completely how Reagan defeated him in a crushing landslide. The outpouring of grief after Carters death was difficult to stomach understanding the damage he had done. Yes the man built houses and gave generously late in life, but that’s because he knew he had a lot to make up for it. The man destabilized several nations, including his own, with entirely foreseeable negligence.











  • As a trans disabled woman there are numerous ways in which threatens my ability to exist. And while that does make me angry at Trump and his supporters, I mostly view them with pity.

    The MAGA faithful are victims or well orchestrated propaganda, using just enough of legitimizes complains of our late capitalist white supremacist patriarchal society but only to blame the wrong people. I have frustration at the farmers who are now critizing Trump since they didn’t think they would be hurt by his actions, but sympathy enough to understand they were tricked. I wish, hope and pray that they will leave the echo chambers that influenced them to look past his numerous severe faults and obvious corruption but logically I don’t see that happening for many.

    While I am angry at all MAGA folk, the majority of which I feel were too focused on the day to day survival in our increasingly expensive world, I can understand. I believe them to both willfully ignorant and globbed to someone they didn’t understand. The harm he has caused was telegrpahed clearly years, months and days ago. But hating, excluding and diminishing them only lessens the chance of them understanding the lies told to them.



  • What she cites the bible for

    Though she clarified that donations wouldn’t actually go to help those infected, White used medical imagery to add urgency to her fundraising plea during a pandemic. “Every single day we are a hospital to the sick, not necessarily the physically sick,” she said. “But we are a hospital for those who are soul sick, those who are spiritually sick.” White went on to suggest that contributors offer a $91 donation, citing Psalm 91, or “maybe $9 or whatever God tells you to do.”

    What I cite the bible for

    Matthew 21:12-13 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’
