I can’t tell if this is satire or not? Ok fine, one animal is endangered by palm oil. Thousands are endangered by meat deforestation.

That's just whataboutism. We don't need to not care about orangutans just because other animals are also in danger.

Right… you brought whataboutism into a thread about the impact of meat and dairy and made it about palm oil.

Do you do this on articles about Hurricane Helene? I’m really lost as to how we got here if you’re now saying you are against whataboutism

The topic is vegan cheese. I was discussing vegan cheese, perfectly on topic.
