If I give money to these sellers of chicken, they'll give money to breeders of chicken, and there will be more chickens. No! I want less chickens!
Unless you steal the chicken 🤔
It is every citizen's duty to steal chicken.
You’re thinking too logically

You can be one step sadder...
Disclaimer: Our eco-friendly shirts are legit and we will be planting real trees in the ground, but please be advised that Wood Milk is 100% fake and completely made up. Only dairy milk is real milk. Paid for by America's Milk Companies.
American milk companies have paid for this. When Americans buy milk, a small fraction of that is going towards this website.
I have not purchased milk in years. I use oat based stuff.
Aubrey Plaza had the brand that she was this independent and couldn't give a fuck progressive chick. And then she did a milk propaganda campaign and her reputation took a hard dive.
Look, I get everyone needs to get paid. But it's not like milk needed another spokesperson. This was on the same level as Terry Crews doing an Amazon commercial on the heels of them denying unionization at a warehouse.
I lost a lot of respect for her after this commercial.
I just did a deep dive on this, fuck Aubrey Plaza
fuck Aubrey Plaza
I'll take one for the team, I guess.

Apples are part of trees and I eat those. Maybe I should switch my diet towards polluting industrialists.

You guys don't?
Completely braindead take. Great shitpost.
I heard once that chicken is considered vegetarian in some countries.
It's true that chickens don't eat meat.
Edit: This is not true.
I had a fair sized yard flock for a number of years. I have seen chickens kill and consume snakes, mice, voles, all manner of insect of course, lizards, other birds foolish enough to try to get to the chicken feed, and once one of their own chicks that just wouldn't shut up. They definitely eat meat.
yeah, i saw a flock of chickens descend on a fullgrown chicken who just happened to be having a bad week. they're evil creatures.
Pretty much every herbivore will eat meat every now and then.

Indeed! I remember a story of a wounded pidgeon falling into a chicken coop... Not much remained of said pidgeon, apparently.
TIL while checking my own dumb joke. I guess I just thought they ate seeds, corn, etc.
My chickens eat more mice than my cats.
Cows eat grass and corn tho. Therefore cows are made of plants, therefore cows are vegetables. Checkmate carnivores.

In my country, old people consider fish and chicken vegetarian for some reason
I don't know if that's true, but I do know that in Japan, after Emperor Tenmu banned the eating of meat, certain animals were considered not to be meat. This did not include chickens, but it did include wild poultry. Also fish, eggs, probably others I'm not aware of/remembering.
I think this is related to why Japanese uses the same counter words for rabbits and birds. You can't just say a number plus object in Japanese alone, because you need a counter word with it. So 2 bottles is "bottles 2 long things" and 4 pieces of paper is "paper 4 flat things". Small animals are usually counted with the word "hiki", so you'd say "salmon 5 hiki" or "dogs 2 hiki", but birds use "wa" instead. I think rabbits are also wa so people could basically say "Uh, no we're not eating meat, we're just having some long eared furry birds."
In all fairness, neither did lettuce.
Lettuce doesn't photosynthesize?!
Vast majority of plants are net consumers of oxygen. Almost no edible plant gives us shade. Farming is technically a net contributor to global warming.
As long as a plant is growing, it is a net producer of oxygen. When plants consume oxygen through respiration, they convert glucose into energy, but in doing so they use exactly as much oxygen as the plant liberated when it created the glucose through photosynthesis.
Meanwhile photosynthesis provides glucose which is built into cellulose which is the plant itself, and this produces oxygen with no consumption.
Net result is net oxygen.
Funny thing to say when they have plants on their meal pictures.
