All the fats come from nuts.

Walnut oil has Omega 3!

And it’s delicious 😩 💦

You joke, but I’ve been eating these salty smoked soy chips with walnut oil as a bacon-ish topping and it’s dope af

Monopolies are not going to be broken up. Get real.

Isn’t beans on toast just a taco?

It’s Big Breakfast trying to silence me!

Breakfast isn’t a real meal, it was made up by companies selling breakfast foods. Death to breakfast.

Okay, but that’s why you aren’t a leftist.

Personally, the reason I have an .ml account instead of an account on one of the farther left instances which aren’t federated with .world is because I want to argue with people like you. I welcome the diversity of opinion between leftists and liberals, I deliberately expose myself to it. Liberals keep me sharp without being emotionally exhausting the way people farther to the right are.

Video content is really computationally expensive to play and store. Seems like it requires centralization to make the service fast and responsive with enough storage.

I suppose I could imagine some kind of ephemeral TikTok that deletes videos from storage after a set amount of time. Or a lowfi TikTok that only allows uploads in 240p. Otherwise I just can’t see it.

The liberal wants to preserve some parts of the capitalist tradition while enacting some social reforms. That puts them in the center.

You want to talk about concentration camps? The US has the largest incarcerated population in the world, and it has my entire life, since Clinton introduced the Crime Bill. The prison population almost doubled from 1990 to 2000. That’s liberalism.

You have to be at least anti-capitalist to be a leftist. That’s the bare minimum.

Lemmy liberals are centrists. They favor capitalism with regulations and social welfare.

Liberals are not leftists.

True, but also, there will be plenty of morons that just openly reveal who they are on their Facebook timeline. That’s still useful.

Although being called slurs by a chatbot will probably just make people stop using Facebook.

On the bright side, Zuck’s influence on California politics is going to drastically decrease.

Look on the bright side: they’re saying these things under their legal names. You’ll know who they are and where they live.

Chop it up, fry it with onions and peppers and rice, drown it in soy sauce, yes please

That’s pretty damn expensive? My beans and rice are far cheaper.

Also, in a week you don’t even eat one vegetable?

You can’t easily be a lazy cook and be a vegan, at least not without spending a ton of money. I definitely have to put in way more effort when I cook ever since I went vegan, because otherwise my food just wouldn’t taste good.

Meat can do a lot of heavy lifting and I don’t think carnists even realize how much they use it as a crutch.

We are products of our material conditions, yeah, there’s no inherent evilness - it’s a learned behavior.

Which is why I support reeducation and rehabilitation for these hungry ghosts. 👍

Oh I’m not saying they’re like, a different species of human or anything. This is just what being rich does to people.

They never experience that period where they have to settle for less. They always get more, and so they always want more. It’s the way their brains have been trained to expect rewards. Someone like me, who is happy using older stuff and waiting for the prices to come down, has been trained to live this way. Someone like them, who always wants the best and most expensive, was also trained to live that way. They become hungry ghosts because of their lifestyles.
