You're missing the point. You're arguing for a natural "solution" to a natural problem. Nature (the chickens immune system) has been trying to solve for diseases attacking it for millions of years. Letting that approach play out may work occasionally in practice, but it completely discounts disease mutation, the long term immune system effects diseases can have on the "stronger" ones that survive (not every encounter with all diseases actually leads to longterm immunity, some are actually significantly worse the second time around due to lasting damage inflicted upon the immune system or genetics), and a host of other unaccounted variables like the extreme changes in exposure vectors we've subjected the animals to.

Ah yes, not preventing the spread of disease to prevent the spread of disease. 5D chess champ

But if they accept your reasoning, they're stupid instead of special. Hard to talk someone into coming to terms with that.

Welcome to like... 40-80% of the global food chain my dude. So few things are made ethically.

That's not how the modern American thinks, we're so used to things just being always available in mass quantities, we've all but forgotten shortages happen and life requires problem solving. Look at what happened with the toliet paper thing, you can easily just use/wash a cloth (obviously not ideal, I'd recommend a bidet first and foremost) but your average American would rather rally at Costco and get into a fist fight over their precious rolls because they can't comprehend or cope with adaptation, lol.

I think they should at least do an annual "Year of the Linux desktop!" episode!

I wouldn't say it has anything to do with the financial affluence of the gamer, but I agree with you that the vast vast majority of gamers simply do not care. Like with a lot of things, that same majority would be better off if they did.

That's the excuse used so they can charge you $18 for a burger, truth be told if you took some of the greedily hoarded profits alway from the franchise agreements and ownership cuts you'd be able to pay workers more and keep prices low. The ownership class just wants to have their cake and eat it too, which last time was forcibly ended with a shit ton of daggers (Rome) and guillotines (France).

They spit in the face of the value of the free knowledge, art, and society they've inherited tbh.
