Robotically operated hydroponics. Powered by magnetic propulsion engines. For all food. Plant fruit and nut trees instead of any other trees. Food everywhere.

Robotically operated hydroponics powered by magnetic propulsion engines. For all food. Maybe have orchards outside. Don't eat meat.

Stop pushing this bullshit. The problem I have on you vegays is that you push this shit on us like some kind of church. you guys are worse the Radical Musilems. I dont shove my bugers down your throat so keep your carrots out of mine. Weve been eating meat for thousands of years and the sky hasnt fallen yet. And now even the very thought of make some bullshit laws about our diet
endangers our great republic. Go to france and be pussy. I thought this was the home of the brave you discuss me.

@mycultureisbetter 'humane animal farming'

Humans don't 'animal farm'

Humans are frugivores digesting fruit best w/opposing digestive processes to meat consumption. It has nothing to do w/being 'humane'. Acting 'humane' is bringing in a moral issue when there is NO nutritional reason for such modern diets of animal fat.

If u have any experience w/exclusionary diets u would know that there is NOTHING 'humane' about feeding others meat. 'humane' meat kills more ppl than all wars combined

The meat industry needs to be taxed to death like the tobacco industry.

He says this is something that can't be legislated. I disagree; it has to be legislated. Sure, you cannot force people to change their diet, but you can make it easier for them to have access to information and to certain food types. Vegans/vegetarians are sometimes treated as second-class citizens, simply because their dietary choice is not acknowledged. Why should we have to jump though hoops to find something to eat? Why can't regular restaurants cater for us? Legislation could solve this.

I couldn't agree more.
Just having a few vegan options on every menu would raise awareness, and benefit everybody all at once.
I don't see why this hasn't already been done.

@fbjnsxfrnnds, really, vegetarians are second-class citizens? Are they denied voting rights? Jobs? Forced to sit in the back of the bus? No, they're not. By saying that you're mocking the struggle real second-class citizens go through.

He did seem disconcerted by the question at first. He found his way around it eventually.
