so your argument is:
1) guns don't kill people, people do.
2) some other people are worse so just keep doing the bad thing I'm also quite puzzled about your conclusion of buying palm oil while also stating many of the negative effects. What you are saying is that there is no point of trying to improve anything because it will have little effect. With that attitude surely no changes will be made. You are right that it's more efficient to produce palm oil compared to alternatives. But that's not really a good argument when the production is done the way it is in these corrupt countries. |

The implication could be that the energy spent convincing people to not eat Nutella might be better spent on other strategies for solving the problem.
I personally have no idea what the best approach is -- I just wanted to point out another plausible interpretation of the comment.
As for Catsmull, he may be coming from a problematic context but that doesn't mean he doesn't have valuable insight.
