Ask HN: What are some cognitive dissonances you deal with?

Obvious one for me is my diet. I still take diary products despite knowing how cruel the dairy industry is. Trying to reduce my intake but it's hard...

What else do you deal with on a daily basis?

I'm from the Midwest US, near where Flynt Michigan experienced severe water poisoning for years. Nestle (the food company) pays only $200 a year to bottle water out of fresh supply while residents have no access. I'm with OP, it was hard to stop buying their products because I had no idea how many products they have their hands in. However, if your dollar is your vote, stop buying product from corporations that operate in this manner.
