Everyone I know actually unironically feels this way lol and always comes to me for advice on going more vegan. Vegan hatred is a strong flea dip for me though, basically any% criticism of vegans ensures I will likely never speak to you again.
It’s not, because criticising “vegans” is done to avoid discussing veganism, which is objectively better than meat eating. This does not include people who say, argue whether starving people should eat meat to survive, which is not a criticism of vegans. I’m open to discussing any real life actual moral paradigms with reasonable people.
Basically you’re assuming it’s not purely coincidence. Plenty of my friends eat meat lol. They’re just rational and not the type of person who thinks I deserve to be cross examined for the actions of all people who are also vegan. People who act like I should like, idk, answer for PETA? My life has objectively improved by letting those bridges burn naturally. It’s done wonders for my mental health.
If I go out into the woods and kill a person to eat, it is better than if I enslave a family, force them to breed, and then eat them one by one in perpetuity.
Similarly, hunting is better than factory farming, but that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing to do, outside of some niche conservation projects.
Are you doing it for sport or are you doing it to meet nutritional needs in lieu of factory farming / expensive and mass-produced plant proteins? This might be a controversial take but IMO hunting wild game can be morally superior to going vegan using supermarket products because of the ecologically destructive nature of modern industrial agriculture. Hunting can be done responsibly in a way that does not harm or even benefits the ecosystem, but it’s very difficult to exercise moral discretion in all of your grocery purchases due to a lack of transparency in supply chains.
Is it awful of me to have stopped eating meat from animals I think are beautiful and sweet, like cows and pigs, but still eat meat from some animals I think are ugly and mean, like chickens and sheeps?
As a non-vegan, that seems to be morally neutral to me (you’re still eating meat), barring differences in treatment and ecological impact of specific animals (I think cows are particularly bad in terms of environmental impact?)

Tbh this is kind of a stupid behavior, if it’s a valid criticism i don’t see why you’d have to react like that

In that case it’s probably not a valid criticism
I am not gettin this, sorry
Maybe don’t be a bot that doesn’t understand the social connotations around being vegan? Idk lol you are getting blocked
No really i did not understood the phrase, english is my 2nd language so I do not understand some stuff…but i guess we gotta be rude :/
What are your thoughts on someone going into the woods and catching wild game?

Thank you for your perspective!
Those are the kings woods and they should be hanged.
He deered to kill a King’s dare.
Keep your monarchy to yourself lol

To meet nutritional needs in lieu of factory farming / expensive and mass-produced plant proteins!
I’ve also been contemplating a small flock of chickens.

Sheep aren’t mean. Just very, very, very stupid.
Horses are even more stupid, but to be fair, we eat them too.
Agree! We raised three lambs at home and they were all unbelievably stupid and slightly suicidal.
I get it. It’s like when nazis killed jews because they thought they are icky
comparing Jews to animals is what Nazis do

What did a sheep ever do to you!? They’re cute! What do you mean they’re ugly and mean!
Is this some weird reaction to ‘Keep the Sheep’?
To respond to the question, I think the vibe of this comment section would be ‘not awful’, maybe not the best reasoning, but not awful.

If we go by bug logic, if it’s a freaky little bloodsucking chicken than maybe but I’m still not sure honestly
Oh but otherwise no that’s mean c’mon what’d chickens do
Id eat owls and raccoons because they like to murder the chickens. Does eating then for revenge count lol
As long as you serve them cold?
It took me a second to get this. As in revenge, a dish best served cold?
