The truth is that meat is not only murder, it's impractical. We waste a lot of natural resources raising cows. They eat tons of grain that could feed more people than they will as hamburger.
Our rivers and lakes are loaded with pig shit and "mad cow" and other diseases are on the rise. Well, YOU know.
Al Gore is still running around telling the world about climate change. He started when he ran for President but lost due to corruption and a crooked election (Dubya's brother Jeb rigged the ballots in Florida).
Al, famous for his phrase about "inconvenient truths," isn't talking as much about the world hunger issue and the problems of meat and dairy as Morrissey would like.
This is especially annoying since, like every other has-been on the planet, Al Gore is going off this summer and some kind of stupid "festival" tour, where idiots stand around listening to shitty music and speeches, throwing frisbees, and congratulating themselves on being hippies and hipsters who know it all. Except that they don't know that eating meat is not only a moral failure, but leading to the eventual destruction of the planet.
Lastly, don't feel bad if you aren't following Morrissey, who has the luxury of having the finest vegan meals prepared for him, ones with endless variety, and many that even taste like meat or dairy.
We all do what we can, and many of us have to say, well, the fish are going to be gone in 50 years so we might as well get OUR share, and real cheese tastes a lot better than some fucked up orange block made out of almonds. But if you do choose to avoid the greasy Burger King double-whopper and have a chip butty instead, go ahead.
