I didnt; there's spelling errors lmao, but because according to marx, the only place value comes from is labour. he demonstrates it with the corn vs iron example in captial where they are compared to a third thing that only has value bc of labour

Getting closer, but you're missing the innovation and competition component. The reason the dependence on labor is reduced is because of advances in technology. But because of competition that allows one firm to gain an advantage over others. Eventually, that advantage is lost, and every firm begins
to double, and triple, etc their output in a given time. Changing this one input, technology, leads to diminishing returns because, as you stated, less labor = less profit.
Anyway, just had to check. Too many vibes based communists out there. That said, it's still a waste of time and energy
alienating people by scolding them about their dietary choices. It also tends to be ethnocentric. That's why a bunch of vegans managed to run one of my indigenous friends off this website, which is utterly infuriating white assimilationist bullshit.
for sure, but at least read over this and think about it. I don't think we can end animal agriculture at all by liberal individualistic action. I just think we CAN actually reduce suffering somewhat with our choices.
Sure, but people need to come to that on their own. In this extremely individualist society, no one wants to be told what to do. We have to speak to their concerns. That's what the vanguard party is all about. We take direction from workers, not the other way around.
It was a pretty incomplete explanation, which, I'm sorry, led me to assume you might be paraphrasing a Wikipedia article. I'm an educator by training and will always be skeptical when people don't show their work.
No worries. I'm also still pretty upset because of the anarchist vegans who ran my indigenous friend off of here through weeks of harassment. We need to stop putting ourselves at odds with other working class people and focus our energy on economic solutions to all these problems.
look i really try not too be too preachy, this tweet got me though because like pretty recently BE made a video about how veganism was "objectively correct" and is now doing this.
