Congratulations you are now poorer

Being tired as hell. Improves my mood too by reducing overthinking.

It is hard to read sources in the LLM era. Way too demanding on the brain. 😆

What if the left over parts are not enough and you had to dedicate lots of land and grow crops just to feed farm animals?

No that's why I brought up thermodynamics.

Directly eating plants kills less plants than eating animals that grew up eating plants all their life.

I think many would prefer to not exist than to be brought into the world to live and die like a farm animal.

Eating plants directly causes less plant harm compared to feeding them to animals and then eating those animals.

Because it's more efficient. Every step along the food chain a lot of energy is lost due to thermodynamics.

not bad just busy

Glad to know that you're doing okay. Family first.

We really appreciate you for bestowing this gift upon humanity. I really enjoy Summit.

The same one you posted in the community? Yea I didn't find any debates like that. It seems most of the diet people prefer making response videos.

The ones I used to watch were mostly on religion, philosophy, and politics.

You have been stalking our community for long enough

Nowadays, it's been one of my favorite ways to pass time 😆. These kinds of discussions are rare in other communities and they draw me in. I also used to watch modern day debate on YT a lot.

Yeah for sure. Awareness and having support systems can work. 🤞

It's hard to decide just based on my observations. I've travelled quite a bit.

In the west we can easily see 20-40% of calories coming from meat. But many people in the east like China and India eat meat only occasionally—like once a week.

So who knows it probably brings down the average to 5%?

Zero carb carnivore is not fried chicken, that has seed oil.

yes. I'm not criticizing the ZC carnivore lifestyle. I'm questioning whether it can work out in a world full of hedonistic people. For example there are so many who know smoking or doing drugs is bad and still do it.

The meat is the superfood, every bad thing in your example was from the plants.

yea the way you eat it is probably healthy.

This post has gotten a lot of interesting discussion. The real world is so messy though.

Most of us don't have the willpower or desire to eat like the carnivores on the sub. They eat meat as fried chicken, cheese burgers, or pizza toppings with coke and alcohol etc.

So maybe we can say it's not a superfood for everybody.

right now 20% of the world calories from animals

Where did you get that number? Our world data says it's more like 5%.

Well it's a surprise

I had a life transforming experience on psychedelics. I tried them only a few times.

One of the craziest trips was when I took hawain baby woodrose seeds. I entered a deep trance-like feverish state and I relived my whole life. It was insanely vivid. I could smell, taste, experience complex emotions, and see everything in color.

I was highly depressed then unable to process my childhood trauma. What I realised at the end was that I was concentrating on the bad parts. There were many good parts that I forgot about or gave little importance to.

It kickstarted my recovery.

I don't do psychedelics anymore. I switched to meditation which gives me a steady and long term supply of happiness.

I smoked weed quite a bit for a few years. It is only to feel good and kill time for a few hours. It wasn't helpful.

Nah. Most get better in a psychiatric hospital and leave. Social media just amplifies your insanity (or sanity).

That everything changes. No matter how bad things are now they have to be different very soon.

Sooner than later.
