Like I wrote, and what you seem to say again here, I agree that it is unfortunate how tough it is to be an ethical consumer these days.

I think the situation you're in affects what you can reasonably do and hence what can be considered "ethical". You cannot opt out of paying taxes (and buying lunch), but it is possible here for me to avoid funding this war and try to seek better alternatives.
Ouch. I was not aware. Cancelled.
It's rough that it's so hard to be an ethical consumer these days. Mullvad gone, Kagi gone.
Why is that a bar suddenly, if we cannot be sure that anyone other than yourself is conscious?
ok! I think that's a logical flaw, solipsism is a floor.
"I can't be certain about anyone else" does not imply "all non-self consciousness claims are equally uncertain". absence of certainty and the absence of evidence and all that.
your "possibility" word is doing a lot of work there I think. you should add "rocks" to your list as well and you'd be equally correct, but we're evaluating the candidates here
I think you need to expand what your point is: we know solipsism is a thing. Is it meant as a defense for animal cruelty or...?
Happy to see the love for Marijn. Goat.
Sure, but it's also the best we got.
