*please note i deeply value and respect the vegan movement. i am just critical of how humorously it precipitates in online spaces, particularly this one. :)

Imagine being such a coward that you specifically choose to start shit on a community that has downvotes disabled.

Vegans use silly insults "out of a profound concern for animals...At social events, [they] sometimes gave graphic accounts of the slaughter of animals in an effort to make...dinner guests shun meat."

Edit: oh whoops, no, that was Hitler. My bad.

If you value veganism either you should be vegan or you're lazy and want others to fix problems while you hinder them

For every person I see who is actually vegan, there are a dozen people who complain about the existence of vegans, denounce vegans as hypocrites, and insist vegans are doing veganism wrong. And thank the heavens for all those vegan Indians, or the numbers would be so much worse.

Americans simply have no idea how fucking expensive it is to produce meat at the scale they want to eat it. We are one Dust Bowl away from ground beef going to $12/lb and patriotic burger-eaters lighting the suburbs on fire in protest.

So reactionary, you going to start complaining about loud blue haired feminists next? Apparently it is too much to acknowledge those who can't advocate for themselves, but perfectly fine to participate in their genocide.

TIL there’s vegan slurs. Don’t think I’ve ever been called something specific for being pro-meat. And I do loooooove my meat-based diet, let me assure you. No vegan slur would ever change that.

Congrats bloodmouth.

THATS THE ONE! I was trying so hard to remember the new one I was called that I really liked. That one is t-shirt worthy. One half over the other in a bloody grin.

"Carnist" is one the weird ones throw around. Makes it sound like I worship the Flesh Mother, the Great Changer.

Which is pretty cool.
