It’s a lot like movies from the Dprk if you’ve seen those. It beats you over the head with the message but I really liked it, especially as a picture of what they were trying to do in China then, and how different it was.

Oh sick missed this one. Walker is one of my favorite movies.

Definitely felt the same. A lot of the same arguments you’d see on the front page of reddit when veganism gets mentioned.

Best of luck, it’s tough out there but definitely possible!

It would still be wrong to buy a product made with Palestinian slave labor even if there weren’t. No one’s really organizing boycotts of Hobby Lobby anymore but I still wouldn’t shop there.

Oh my, that does sound very difficult. I’m sorry you have to try to navigate that! If you can afford it, offering the co-signer without a credit check on you and offering either to prepay what rent you can afford or offering a larger security deposit could work, especially if it’s someone renting like just a room and you have solid proof of income going back a bit.

Do you have bad credit you’re trying to hide or are you worried about your co-signers credit? With corporate landlords there’s usually no flexibility whatsoever but sometimes with smaller landlords you can get lucky if you can explain why it’s bad.

No, I’m comparing purchasing decisions derived from ethical concerns. Just because the suffering of Palestinians experiencing genocide is far worse doesn’t mean that the exploitation of animals is okay, two things can both be bad even though one is worse.

Yeah, they still will run a credit check for both.

I don’t think it makes someone an asshole to live according to their moral principles. Like, I wouldn’t help her buy a sodastream either. And it’s perfectly possible to explain to people why you aren’t comfortable doing so and offering to help in other ways. No one needs milk to live.

Are there any documentaries other than how yukong moved the mountains that really show socialism in action?

No, because cows still suffer and die for that milk. That said, if it’s her money you’re using and she would buy it anyway it really isn’t the biggest thing I don’t think.
