      Zealotry convinced me to go vegan. After a few months on r/vegancirclejerk listening to them make fun of carnist rationalisations, I realised I really didn’t have an excuse for eating meat.

          I expect you not to pay people to kill innocents, regardless of the intelligence of the victim, because I do not believe in fascist arguments that the less capable are less deserving of decent treatment.

      something closer to zealotry would be using a browser from a data-mining corp and expecting privacy.

      and not having privacy and expecting democracy not to die slowly.

          except thats exactly most peoples atitudes when they complain about it.

          and yes, erosion of privacy is leading to erosion of democracy in many ways, thats pretty well estabilished.
