   I wish more people told me about whatever I do that's bad for ecology/society/whatever and had a good discussion about it so I can learn/change. If that doesn't happen, I will likely continue to think I am not doing anything particularly wrong or bad.

      ^- On that topic, I still can't understand why vegetarians, equal rights activists, general leftists etc. keep insisting on using proprietary software. As in explicitly being aware of but refusing to migrate or put effort into the benefit of !fs.
      
      It sometimes makes me so confused/annoyed that I just want to go out and buy meat, harass people based on gender and start a company in protest against other activists' struggles.

         But of course I don't. I just keep using and developing !fs (+ free culture etc.), avoiding the meat industry, actively supporting equal rights movements and try my best to create/support commons.

         My reasoning is that these things are intertwined. Equal rights (race/class/gender/sexuality) is without a doubt the exact same struggle (principally/philosophically) as libre software, knowledge, culture in general. I don't think there's any doubt about that.
         
         Vegetarianism is a bit more far-fetched. But if someone's avoiding the meat industry for ecology/sustainability reasons then I believe they should be just as equally involved with blobfree technology as in animalfree foods. (or - which I'd totally accept - simply avoiding the encumbered technologies)
         
         General leftists etc. should already be both equal rights proponents and vegetarian (with possible exception of meat in a very low-grade sustainable self-reliance manner). So no more arguments are needed there..

      I get the impression you are doing pretty well :-)
