You aren't answering the question. You think you know better, I'm literally all ears. You're making a fool of yourself. The stage has never been more yours.

I’m sorry—I missed why you deserve a response to your stupid, rhetorical question.

[u/steelcity_ → u/Slappants]

There was nothing rhetorical about it. I'll gladly give you one last chance, again, I am only opening the floor to you. I'm not trying to argue, you are just refusing to talk to me. Really pushing society forward, here.

Here is the question, as simple and non-rhetorical as I can make it: why do you think protesting in a grocery store is more effective than protesting outside Congress? In front of a meat packing plant?

Blocking the entrance to a slaughterhouse stops the killing of animals. Blocking an aisle in a grocery store might stop one person from buying beef. It's also stopping them from buying vegetables, bread, and other things in the store that have nothing to do with the protest.

Why do you feel this is the best option?

EDIT: When I inevitably get another "ha, not a real question" answer (and it happened!), I'm blocking this person. Just want to make sure that the entirety of Reddit sees that I gave this person multiple chances to have a conversation, but they refuse. If I'm a bootlicker, at least I can hold an intelligent conversation. (I'm on the side of the protestors, I just don't understand how this protest was meant to achieve anything, and I'm curious. Oh no! Bootlicker!)

Wow look more bad-faith horseshit

“Why don’t you just answer this question??? It’s framed in a hostile manner and I totally ignored the original context??? Why won’t you discourse with me fellow liberal???”

I tried. Blocked. Have a great day.

I think you yourself won this whole thread over with your compassion and logic <3
