Childhood indoctrination

[KichigaiNeko]

Polyester is a category of polymers which contain the ester functional group in their main chain. Although there are many polyesters, the term "polyester" as a specific material most commonly refers to polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Polyesters include naturally occurring chemicals, such as in the cutin of plant cuticles, as well as synthetics through step-growth polymerization such as polycarbonate and polybutyrate. Natural polyesters and a few synthetic ones are biodegradable, but most synthetic polyesters are not.

Just for complete disclosure

The same question can be asked "why do you think you deserve to eat plant material?"

You seem to just want to keep playing this game. Are there any squares that anyone's missed?

I am not "playing a game" you seem to be though.

And no it isn't a vegan couch... silly thing! it is a product of petro-chemicals and some very clever usage of wood chips.

@ Forbi
IF we "don't need to farm our domestic live stock" in the first place what do you propose we do with the billions of live stock we have now?

And which "in the first place" are you talking about?

Hmm...let's suppose hypothetically that animal faeces actually is necessary to grow crops (despite the existence of synthetic fertilisers). How does producing fertiliser mean that the animals deserve to be slaughtered? This link has not been explained in any detail.

Ahhh there is also a rub. You don't know how to sustain the soil at all and would probably die from lack of nutrients. You are also probably one of those who oppose the usage of "synthetic fertilisers"? Supper Phosphate is one that comes to mind

All in all, I am thinking that there is no "Childhood indoctrination" at play here as per the original OP. More likely millions of years of human development and that Forbi and llil'endie are not putting forward a convincing argument for the total exorcism of said millions of years of human development in favour of this pseudo-religious ethos they seem to have dreamed up.

They must be very embarrassing for vegans/vegetarians everywhere.

Apologies for the long post but I think this might be interesting
