Campaign CoercionUpdated: May 5th, 2017
Created: 05/05/17The problem with campaigns is two-fold in that there is a) an attempt to enlist other humans into b) some questionable co-operative action.
Viewing from a few organic, predominantly 'foody' perspectives:
1. there is the person that eats organic food for their health who does little campaigning but support the production and distribution of organic food.
2. there is the person who care about the environment, as a) they live in it and b) so do other people who deserve the same respect, more likely to campaign under 'the greater good' banner
3. there is another, the person who a) sees health as a passing phase, as all will die no matter what is consumed, but better not to bring it on by eating questionable food, and b) do not want to mess up the environment they dwell on, which clearly means not messing it up for the others that I depend on and c) organic has a sense of freedom which I imagine all living things want, else why grow and procreate.
Yet in the third situation campaigning is a poison to be avoided, it sets one against the other on a war like footing. vegetarians and moreso vegans fit into group 2.
But if people had more of the last sentiment they may work more at growing their food and not challenging others on how they get from birth to death and to consume to a preset argument.
