    Why do so many vegans seek conflict instead of educating others? It’s pretty clear that this post seeks solely to declare non-vegans hypocrites.

    Good idea using your shit-stirring alt for this one though.

      I have no mischievous intent against any group. I just saw some moral inconsistency. So I though let’s AskLemmy about their opinion on this topic. People are answering pretty rationally and are not just outright dismissive.

        Your question is clearly dismissive itself. I have no reason to think it’s in good faith, especially considering you seem to only post from this account rarely and to stir up shit

          Their responses are clear and methodical, giving the impression that OP is genuinely trying to discuss a potentially-tricky subject in a calm, rational manner. If they were here to “stir up shit,” surely they’d be responding in a way that encourages more drama. From the evidence, I don’t believe that’s their intent at all.

          Sometimes people want to discuss difficult topics, even if there’s a risk of people taking it the wrong way. I’d say OP’s doing a decent job encouraging civility, and that’s something I wish we could see more of online.

      Carnists: Murder, rape, torture, slavery

      Vegans: Once in a blue moon literally just saying something about it in public

      One of these is immoral. You’ll be shocked at which this boomer reference username thinks it is!

        Hmm I wonder if the definitions of any of those words requires human beings to be involved 🤔.

        Sounds like you’re stretching.

          Isn’t it cool how you can do that to, say, Jews or Palestinians? You just label them as not human, and then it stops being murder!

          What a handy tool that doesn’t demand reflection!

            No, no it’s not cool at all. And what you’re referring to is called dehumanization. Definitely calls for some reflection on your part, lol.

              You’re the one with the moral framework specifically designed so that you can carry out the acts of murder, rape, torture and slavery and not hold yourself at fault for them because different word. But I’m the one who needs to reflect? Shut up you fucking moron.

                Murder rape and slavery all have definitions. Unless all of a sudden were saying cows and chickens are people, you need to adjust your language or nobody will ever take you seriously. Angy li’l vegan, ain’t ya?

        Using the word carnist is like screaming “I am a huge asshole and I think I’m superior”. I won’t be seeing your replies.

        Ps. Hilarious you think anything from the 90s is for boomers. You’re just telling me you’re an awkward gen z

          Dick Tracy, famous pulp comic from the 1990s

            Technically Dick Tracy is pre-boomer as it started in the 30s. Though it ran till the 70s I think so kinda works both ways. Simply biazzare that the other guy thinks it started in the 90s though either way.
