    Yikes, imagine conflating corporate advertising with freedom… Is this why companies hold so much power over us?

      Ok but aren’t “Vegan meat” industries just another potentially shady Company?? Like how do we know they aren’t gonna fall into the same deceptive practices that the Meat Industry does? Just because an animal isn’t being harmed doesn’t mean there isn’t some corporate fuckery going on behind the scenes? (Ew now I sound like a communist or anti-capitalist.)

      I’m realizing now this isn’t in America, so tbh good for them, I trust whatever they’re doing over there is honest. But if this was in America?? Nah… I dont trust the food industry here at all.

      I expect you’d have a rather different stance if it was advertising for something you enjoy in life that was being singled out and banned.

      It’d be very different if it was a blanket ban on all advertisement in these contexts, but it isn’t. It’s the government trying to decide what people eat.
