Slacktivism (sometimes slactivism or clicktivism) is a portmanteau formed out of the words slacker and activism. The word is usually considered a pejorative term that describes "feel-good" measures, in support of an issue or social cause, that have little or no practical effect other than to make the person doing it feel satisfaction. The acts tend to require minimal personal effort from the slacktivist.Examples of activities " include signing internet petitions, the wearing of awareness ribbons or awareness bracelets with political messages, putting a ribbon magnet on a vehicle, writing blogs or statuses about issues on social networking sites, joining a Facebook group, posting issue-oriented YouTube videos, or altering one's personal data or avatar on social network services.

re: http://www.qbn.com/topics/653372…
so you're saying if i am a hunter and have the means/ability, I am to buy processed food for the homeless to eat at a marked up cost, instead of simply killing an animal and having it's meat processed for consumption which could come at both a lesser cost and a bit of sport/excitement to enjoy, and greater nutritional gain for the recipients as it is natural as opposed to processed. keep in mind you pay for the tag through the gaming system so the kill is sanctioned.
keep in mind we are from a culture that has free range chicken... meaning it is allowed to wander around freely as if to feel a sense of natural existence, alas it is a lie, it is only being fed organic grain and abiding to standards set forth by men so that it can be certified free range organic. this mass genocide of pork, beef, poultry, etc is a far greater atrocity in numerous areas including, animal cruelty, health hazards, added ingredients, genetic mutation through science etc, yet this is the food we consume.
no one here knows what it's like to have an elephant trample their fields let alone fear one trampling you as some farmers were while attempting to defend their crops. it should also be noted the elephant was shot on the fourth night after three unsuccessful attempts at preventing the elephants late night raids the preceding days.

I think the most offensive part of this is that this jackass did this to get more publicity for his company...come on, there were people wearing GoDaddy hats! If he were honest and just said, yeah, fuk it, I killed an elephant...I'd respect that more than trying to tie that to this mission of flying to Africa to save starving villagers. No wonder so many in the world community hate Americans!

We tend to raise, exploit, and kill animals in much less humane ways... the guy may be a bit of a jerk, but I can't condem him unless I do the same for how we treat animals for food in the US... and if I really did that, I should probably be vegaterian, or know the source farm where my food is coming... or hunt my own food.
- Yeh, you should be acting more responsibly about your food sourcing/palette options. Never too late. Think, act. Go on.mikotondria3
- I think you are mixing metaphors here. Valid points but wrong context, IMHO.monkeyshine
- totally not trying to sound like the dick that I did, but changing what you eat because you've thought about the wider impact is a..mikotondria3
- ..very empowering thing for other people as well as yourself.mikotondria3
- I've often thought about changing how I eat, and lately I''ve been eating much cleaner (past year)jfletcher
- I'm moving to Europe soon, and I hear things are much better there for animals and fresh food.... hope so.jfletcher
- you didn't sound like a dick at all, no worries.jfletcher
- thanks mate.mikotondria3

Comparing the ethics of sport hunting of a protected species to factory farming for food production is a little unreasonable. Not that I don't agree with you on the point about the marketing of "whole foods" but that's another story altogether.
"As of January 2006, the official poverty line was ZWD 17,200 per month (US$202). However, as of July 2008 this had risen to ZWD 13 Trillion per month (US $41.00) . Most general labourers are paid under ZWD 200 Billion (US 60c) per month.[37] A nurse's salary in September was Z$12,542 (12 US cents), less than the cost of a soft drink."
Spending about 20-30k killing an elephant seems like a stupid way to help a few people eat for a day or two. Whatever though, who really cares?
