      There is simply too much in life to care about. And we all care about different things. And nobody can care about all the things that we should care about. Even more so when caring about a cause involves making sacrifices in order to support that cause.

      So without systemic change, you will never convince a critical mass of individuals to care enough to sacrifice enough to make a meaningful difference.

      So the focus on the individual as the unit of change is as good as saying “do nothing”.

      • Well,.I personally like to bring some compassion into my life. it’s not possible in all parts of life at all times.

        But honestly, it just seems like a no brainer to not eat meat. Such a cruel and pointless pleasure. The only real argument is that it tastes good. Taste being such an ephemeral experience.
