      You do it literally every time you purchase a meat product. Meat is made from the dead body of animals. When you buy it, you are retroactively paying for the slaughter of that animal.

        money is still bound by linear time. the animal is already dead, and the person who did it is already paid.

              You know that others will resupply if you buy this thing. If you didn’t knew until now that people resupply what you buy, now you know. Making you definitely are responsible from now on.

              Imagine I throw candy at the floor an this kid always picks it up. Then I throw candy at the train tracks and the kid gets ran over. Am I not responsible for the kids actions?

                  I used “know” in the colloquial sense. Do you think it’s unjustified to believe that they will resupply your demand?

                    since the future hasn’t happened yet, no claim about it can, in the present moment, be true. so you can’t know it.

          Oh yeah, I’m sure the entire meat industry would continue to produce meat that nobody paid for just so they could let it all rot. If you want to eat meat, go ahead, but stop fucking lying to yourself about what you are responsible for. Every time you eat meat, a living creature suffered and died for it, and you gave someone money to facilitate that. That is the reality and you should accept it. Take responsibility for your choices instead of fleeing responsibility like a coward.

            this is a nonsequitur.

            what I said is true.

            I’m responsible for my actions. I’m not responsible for what others chose to do in the past
