Reply to Macron tells workers to ‘stop wreaking f***ing havoc’ by An_Old_Big_Tree

The people of France will not tolerate Macron's "radical centrism." They only voted for him to dismantle fascism.

A cat. They are more independent, and they are one of the most successful animals in the world as far as survival is concerned.

Milk is becoming less and less popular every year as people become more aware of dairy-free alternatives like soy and almond milk. The dairy industry tries to counter this by forcing non-dairy milks to be named as "almond beverage," etc. This is because they are afraid of the vegan movement. One person makes relatively little difference in any matter, but it's always a good thing to remove yourself from an unethical practice, and you may be able to show friends/family/colleagues that dairy is no longer necessary. Most movements and societal changes start with one person and build as word spreads among the people.
I've wrestled with this question on occasion myself. I would be more than happy to contribute to a harvest, but I couldn't participate in anything involving animals, as this exploits them. I haven't looked extensively at this issue personally, however.

Reply to comment by josefStallman in Why do Marxist Leninists always call anarchists liberals? by Chomskyist

Fellow ML here with sympathy towards ancom philosophy. A lot of my ML comrades seem to have an impression that anarchist philosophy is too idealistic. I have heard some sentiment that it is a product of Western comfort and bias, and that doesn't take material conditions in Russia/China/wherever into consideration. (I don't personally agree with this)

The dairy industry is arguably even more cruel than the meat industry. Female cows are artificially impregnated (raped) and forced to give milk at an incredibly unnatural and extremely painful rate. Their whole lives are pain and misery. Their calves, if male, are taken forcibly away from them and slaughtered for veal. There is also an extremely significant amount of blood and pus in every jug of milk.
