This comment is a perfect example of a person shifting systemic problems onto individual consumers. If we just all do our one little part, it makes a better world, right?

Except then you get situations like the great recycling crisis, where individual consumers do their part to recycle and then we "realize" that recycling has been a giant scam for decades.

A system that relies on your consent to operate can be modified by withdrawing your consent; if individuals coordinate, systemic change is possible. Gandhi and his non-violent resistance to British rule in India is a good example.

What would the scam be behind eating less meat?
