Get fucked, impossible.
Edit: holy fuck y’all are so obsessed with capitalism, why don’t you marry it?
Is he wrong, though? OFC he’d be trying to get his product in to more … products.
Why is a smaller step in the right direction totally wrong? This is exactly the shit people complain about with purity tests (the ones who know what they’re talking about, anyways). Making an enemy of baby steps.
If you could get more conservatives to eat fake meat products, even if it’s only part fake meat, it’s a step in the right direction, is it not?
I think the right is much too far gone for that kind of thing, and I think you need to be delusional to think this could work.
And frankly, the whole idea of a 50/50 burger makes me uncomfortable. I’ll eat a pure plant burger or pure meat burger, but “hybrid” feels too much like a fraudulent cost cutting measure to me.
You are aware people other than the right eat meat, right?
Which other major political group is vehemently against eating plant burgers? “liberals” are at worst lukewarm about them.
Frankly, I don’t even believe that most (many, but not most) actual leftists are that invested in plant-based meat alternatives or diets without animal products in them until I see some statistical evidence. So you can’t bridge a political divide between “liberals” and leftists with a hybrid burger - which other major political groups are left where it would even make some logical sense to try and bridge the difference with “hybrid burgers”?

Vegans do not want to give their money to any company that exploits animals. In searching to expand their consumer base they will abandon their core audience
Maybe it isn’t always about you?
You’re right, it’s about the animals they exploit and how the inherent need for growth leads to the abandoning of initial moral ideals.
This seems like a “Captialism requires profit growth” problem more than anything, and as morally admirable as it might be vegan food isn’t a growth industry right now
Why is Big Beef astroturfing on Lemmy now?
