Obligate carnivore means they require nutrients that on a natural diet, they can only get from meat. With processed foods, cats can survive on a plant-based diet, if the food has had the appropriate nutrition added (in a way that cats can absorb it)

Edit, it even says exactly that in the article:

While cats are obligate carnivores, complete foods like Unicorn Pate are fortified with all of the vitamins and minerals that cats need to thrive, including taurine

Did you even read the post? Nowhere does it argue for ditching electronic payments. Outside of the west, alternative payment apps are widespread.

I have to assume he sees any government spending as a problem, with no concept of a government trying to financially support or stimulate the economy.

Edit: except for when it's his own or his buddy's grift, then it's fine

The four things:

  • Not smoking
  • Doing enough exercise (the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity a week)
  • Eating five fruits and vegetables a day
  • Drinking moderately (which the CDC defines as two drinks or fewer for men and one drink or fewer for women per day).

Women lose the ability to have a career as soon as there's a hint of a boyfriend. Employers check. They're expected to become mothers, and dedicate their life to taking care of their children, husband and household, while not really having any say in it.

On eggs:

  • Male and female chicks are birthed in equal amounts, but the male chicks are thrown into a meat grinder as they can't produce eggs.
  • Certifications that chickens are being kept in any kind of conditions.that are kind to the animal are mostly crap. Unless you know and have inspected the farm where your eggs are coming from, assume the chickens are being kept in awful conditions.
  • What happens when the chicken stops producing enough eggs, when they're past their peak? They get slaughtered, of course.

Veganism in general is simply a consequence of having empathy with animals being held by humans. Unless they're treated like pets, they're going to face pain and suffering that simply isn't necessary for human survival. And if it isn't necessary, why inflict pain?

I highly recommend scrambled tofu.

I see what you mean, thanks. Maybe of interest, the Oxford English dictionary defines a race riot as "a public outbreak of violence due to racial antagonism", much less specific than your definition which I imagine is America-based, so I think this might be a difference between American and European use of the term.

Why do you think it's more fascist or than racist? The political "right" of the UK is incredibly anti-immigrant, you can see that in how they've voted for MPs and Brexit. The racial hate is more noticeable towards brown people, i.e. anyone looking anything from Arab to south Asian, there's even the p-word that comes close (but isnt quite) the equivalent of the n-word.
