If you were to go to your grocery store every week and buy 100 chickens, they would increase production specifically for you. If they then sent out a notice to your grocery store that said "due to Commie buying so many chickens we have increased our crop of chickens to accommodate, all hail Commie the chicken slayer".
Would you consider yourself responsible at all or thats still the companies choice to produce the chickens for you or not. Should I be mad that they would increase their production for you rather than I should be mad that you are buying so many chickens?
It seems like you are sort of hiding behind the small scale of it all. Like you are so small and minor on the whole system you can't possibly matter, so you dont. Is that accurate?
this is true, but it's not what i'm saying. what i'm saying is that i don't decide whether or how many chickens are killed. someone else does, and they are responsible for their own decisions.
no. they make their own choices.
