    Nothing worse than people telling strangers how to live their lives. 
    Well, some people would just walk past e.g. a stranger beating up his child or wife in public with that same thinking you have.

    Nothing worse than that.

    This is cool, actually using the "european" shop. But they should have that shop in a country that didn't leave the EU.

    Yes… good equivocation.  Because these are definitely very similar things you just compared.  I admire your commitment to bringing negativity here everyday.  Sometimes I don’t see a post from you and I say to myself… maybe today’s the day he takes a day off.  But nope… before too long you drop us a gem.  You are the Cal Ripken of negativity! 🫡

    The country is literally in “Europe,” which has been recognized as a continent since the 8th century, so it’s totally appropriate to call it the “European Shop.”

    The European Union on the other hand, didn’t exist until 1993, which is around 1,300 years later. 

    Imagine thinking Europe didn’t exist until 1993.

    All the main merchandise companies (Probity Merch are about the largest) have their European bases in England. So bound to be sold from here. Same with Foo Fighters, QOTSA, etc.

    Agree though that they could rename it U.K. store

    However, apart from Europe's temporal history, it is a fact that the UK's (stupid) exit from the EU will result in customs duties and import sales tax. So it's basically a stupid idea to have a store in the UK if you only serve mainland Europe.

    Spiritual Chaos despises meat eaters. He despises them as he rides comfortably in his leather seat, every time he flies the friendly skies, 40,000 feet above.

    If that’s true he ain’t gonna like me much then because I fucking love meat.  In fact, just had an absolutely delicious steak for dinner tonight.

    So you would take laws against murder, theft, assault, etc., off the books because we shouldn't tell others how to live their lives? I guess you wouldn't have been much of a fan of abolitionists back in the day, telling strangers how to live their lives back when certain kinds of people were treated as chattel, like animals? Maybe in 150 years humanity will look back on our treatment of other animals with the same horror that we look back on our treatment of other people 150 years ago.

    This is absurd, both as a "gotcha" and also because many airlines don't even have leather seats.

    How does he have any choice of what airline seats are made of? What a ridiculous statement. 

    Seems to me he’s asking Pearl Jam to show some consistency with their moral outrage. They preach environmentalism while promoting meat which is environmentally devastating. They preach decency and kindness while promoting food that literally tortures and kills sentient animals.

    Well, if your point is that people and animals are different, I agree. One way they're different is that people have the capacity to recognize the suffering of animals and make ethical choices not to participate in that suffering.

    I should say that I'm a vegetarian (obviously) and, these posts notwithstanding, I don't try to convert people to vegetarianism. If someone asks me why I decided to stop eating meat, I will tell them. It's a personal choice that people have to come to, if they're going to come to it, through their own experience and their own ethics. I do think that a lot of people remain willfully ignorant of the treatment of the animals that end up on their plates, and that's unfortunate.
