But they still publish recipes with eggs, the innocent unborn embryos of chickens. Disgraceful!

Ah yes, doing one thing to improve must be discouraged because it is not doing all the things.

You grossly misunderstand the point I was trying to make. My point is more about who gets to say what's acceptable on the internet.

On the one hand, you have thoughtful, rational nosaltarians such as myself and millions of my minions, err... followers.

On the other hand, you have the craven beasts at Epicurious who want to encourage the consumption of eggs, living suffering plants, and even conscious salt.

Yes. Everything in this universe has at least a little consciousness. Even salt.

I say that the internet should be ruled by those with the most people pointing out problems. In this case the problem is that encouraging the consumption of conscious beings, such as salt, has logical consequences.

You may call my idea mob rule. But I call it the voices of a thousand rational beings simply trying to save one of our own.

Do you see what I'm saying now?

"Mob rule" as it might be called has one victory down, but we won't stop until we reach the logical end.

My moral standards are different and superior to the lax proprietors of Epicurious. Therefore, it would be wrong for me to hold back and let others violate my moral standards. I won't stop until everyone follows my unquestionably superior moral standards.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I don't really know but my gut feeling is that you can sit down with the 99.9% of those well owners at a single OPEC or IOGP meeting. However, you would struggle to enforce any meat industry curbing measure with the millions of meat producers spread across many developing countries.

They don’t have owners, they are abandoned. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-drilling-abandoned-sp...

TIL. But even after insolvency there must be a way to enforce personal liability on whoever was in charge of the company that drilled the well in the first place.
