Very cool! I’m mostly excited to see the boom of the solar energy industry. Not just for selling but also for personal use. Feel like a whole new thing is coming that somehow not tainted by another industry hidden interests
Would be nice to see this at animal sanctuaries, though I can imagine cows trying to sit on the panels 🥲
This is why I have to unsubscribe from “solarpunk” spaces. All the bleeding carnists not understanding the horror and damage of animal industry.
Bye!

Having to teach adults that enslaving and slaughtering animals isn’t a good thing gets very, very tiring after a very short time considering the immediate horror of the situation and the unending stubbornness of pissbaby carnists

Please stop with your odd content obsession. I’m only addressing your comment you shared with us. I have no interest in a protracted period of finding vegan solarpunk “content”. The issue is obvious and the solution is obvious and I put a lot of energy into the cause but on a different platform than this. There’s no pissing contest. I’m rightfully angry.

Ok sure but again, absolutely minuscule backroom topic compared to the enduring struggle for animal rights. I can comment about things I feel strongly about and I will. You’re just being quite strange to be honest. Lemmy has nothing to do with my own thoughts

Bruh, why are you being so negative? Don’t you have anything better to do than criticise other people’s speech? Why don’t you provide a better example instead of just complaining?

Not everyone who comes to solarpunk is coming to look at glorification of slavery. A lot of people would be turned away by crass and vulgar imagery such as this. I’ll be staying, to remind people of the fact that we do not need to tolerate such horrific content.
How do you propose making any effective change to the world around you when you are so utterly divorced from it?
What world? Consensus reality? The model of the world invented by enlightenment scholars and exported across the world through the processes of colonisation and genocide? I am glad to be divorced from consensus reality. If you say that my beliefs divorce me from the world, then I praise your wisdom in understanding that the world is a belief, and I thank you for the compliment. I would be very ashamed to find myself a believer in the world.
That’s a yikes from me, dawg. Good luck in your journey to not being this type of person.

Bold move using a misogynist slur on Solarpunk

Okay, yes, I would like to address the “meat”, pun intended, of your reply.
You spent your entire reply complaining about how complaining is bad. If you don’t like complaining, stop complaining. You said to offer alternatives, fine. Show us a top level reply to this post that dismantles its carnist ideology and doesn’t complain. I’d like to see some productive behaviour out of you.

Wait. Is this a thing? Solarpunk is pro animal agriculture and meat? I’m naive to the movement/philosophy/genre, but still I’d find that surprising.
As for the video, it’s about farming practices today adopting solar. Pretty hard to avoid the reality of animal agriculture in that context.

It’s also worth pointing out that herding/grazing animals play an important role in the ecosystem and soil restoration. They can and should be incorporated in solarpunk whether or not they are consumed. Our best indicator of when humans arrived at a location is when the local megafauna died off.
It’s also kinda surprising to me that people are assuming that this would be for mean animals specifically. I didn’t watch the video but it seems to me there is not reason this couldnt be for non-animal-harming animal agriculture, things like dairy cows, sheep, llamas, goats, etc. Even horses for riding or smthn. As I understand it solarpunk is cool with that, especially of it’s living with the animals for mutual benefit.
Considering SolarPunk is high tech, it’d be lab grown artificial meat and robotic agriculture if anything.
Solarpunk isn’t carnist. And this article isn’t solarpunk.
Bye! Don’t forget to close the door on your way out.
With ya on this one. Really wish people would stop with their wierd insistence on putting solar panels in places should be eradicated. Don’t put solar panels on parking lots and cattle ranches. Get rid of parking lots and cattle ranches.
