I'm not a pushy vegan. But if I combat the cognitive dissonances thrown at me even just a little bit, I'm accused of being a preachy vegan.
People have absolutely no idea how much I let go. I put my desire to have good relations with people over being an animal advocate. And still, I've had people tell me they feel turned off by my intensity on veganism.
It's getting to the point where I might just not eat in groups anymore. And might not even try becoming close friends with non-vegans outside the ones I already have built relationships with.
I know beating people in arguments doesn't win them over. They are set in their ways. But letting them get away with their flawed arguments is equally bad. It makes them falsely believe they actually have winning arguments.
The whole thing is lose/lose.
Yep. They want us to laugh at the jokes. They want us to pat them on the back and say, it's ok. We support you. And when we don't, they feel judged and attacked.
It's not about our desire to judge or attack. It's about us speaking up for the voiceless. Now that I'm consciously realizing this, I'm going to start throwing a little outrage when people tell me to be quiet. I don't appreciate being told to tone down something I care about.
step aside g*mers , the actual most oppressed minority has entered the conversation
i highly doubt they started it
I'm fortunate to have had people mostly supportive of my being vegan. But they also virtue signal that they are all about letting people make whatever choices they want. I often detect an implication that I'm not as tolerant as they are because I don't condone animal consumption. Again, they have no idea how much I let go. I can easily call them out on the implication they're making that I'm intolerant, as I've never been given a sound reason not to advocate for animal rights.
He sounds like an butthole. Anyone who uses the "now I am going to do it even more" seems like a shitty person.

eating meats is normal and doesn't require any "excuse". i just like to eat meats
Yea that logic can kinda be applied to anything. Like slavery/r*pe/torture. So am I supposed to take you serious here?
You're literally lurking in a vegan thread and saying the equivalent of Mmm bacon here. I don't think it's as edgy as you believe it is in your head. It's more of a reflection of your own personal shortcomings.

Saying humans are "supposed to" do anything is teleological nonsense. We don't eat meat to fulfill some astral purpose.
At least argue that eating meat is healthier or simply enjoyable. I don't even know any religions that say humans are supposed to eat meat outside of some rituals like a Passover seder.

Yes. Humans need to drink water and will otherwise die. There's no "supposed to" in the sense of satisfying the intent of some creator or whatever other entity would create a list of things were "supposed to" do. You're not being naughty if you don't drink water, even if you harm yourself because of it.
We're not put on this earth for the purpose of drinking water, which is what "supposed to" would mean in a teleological context.
You could argue that humans need to eat meat, but you'd be obviously wrong. So, people generally don't argue that. But, saying humans are "supposed to" eat meat is appealing to some undefined mystical thing humans are supposed to do, which is teleological bullshit.

Dogs and cats are fricking useful, that's why we don't eat them and ended up having this relationship with them. Why would you eat the animal you can train to guard your home or other domesticated animals from predators, or can even be trained to help you hunt? Why would you eat the animal that eats the vermin that ruin your food stores and spread diseases?
Even beef was pretty rare to eat for a long time because cows and oxen were more useful alive, which was up until relatively recently.
Pigs and wild hog are pieces of shit, chickens and turkeys are r-slurred, and fish are useless except for food. This is why we eat these animals.

plants are living things. They attempt to avoid things that are harmful to them and seek out things that are good for them. This is no different than an animal experiencing pain or pleasure. The difference between plants and animals is that plants have no means to defend themselves or run away. They are completely defenseless creatures. So being a vegan is morally equivalent to murdering an infant

Some trees actually provide nutrients to saplings via root entanglement, and some vines show affinity for kin by choking out same-species seedlings while leaving genetic relatives.
