they combine disparately methodized LCA data. this is explicitly against good practice. the fact that they found outrageous disparities got them great headlines and impressive graphs, but the underlying science is questionable at best. I could go deeper but this is the thousand foot view.

what in the boomer book is this doing on lemmy

this is poore-nemecek 2018. it is not good science.

tomorrow we dine in hell

good news

of course it's not. Meta analyzes fly in the face of the guidance for LCAs. it's just not good science.

since I'm already being tasked to address this again, it's worth pointing out that poore and nemecek didn't even gather the LCA data themselves. they, themselves, actually cite other meta-analyzes of LCA data. those meta-analyzes do recognize that they are violating best practices in the text themselves, and just go ahead and do it anyway. egregiously, poore and nemecek Don't even acknowledge this faux pas and pass off their "findings" as sound investigation.

there is a cure for political illiteracy

no. different things are different.

for some people

comparing slaves to animals is what slavers do

Every living being has the same worth.

if this were true then harvesting grain or chopping down a tree or using hand sanitizer would be murder.

I don't mistreat animals. this is libelous.

The animals we create ARE morally equivalent to our own children and are owed EXACTLY THE SAME unconditional love and protection.

no, they're not.

there are "spaces" now which is a collection of rooms, which is a pretty good analogue for discord "servers"

Matrix, to my knowledge, is only chats, servers (or more properly rooms in Matrix, since they have real servers), and DMs.

I was responding to this

other animals are a different species

it's a veterinary procedure

I'm not responsible for others actions

warlordism isn't anarchy.

knowledge, being a justified, true belief, precludes knowing the future. I cannot know what others will do.
