      Man, I saw the original over on the vegan community and felt bad for a second and then realized that pigs aren’t humans and can’t fucking talk.

          Giving an animal the ability to talk, feel, and act like a human does not give me empathetic feelings towards it, no.
          I also don’t eat suckling pig, so there’s that too.

              What the hell does any of that matter? You trying to hit me with a gotcha when I say I give a shit about cats and dogs?

              I am not now, and never will be a vegan.

              Go convince someone who’s on the fence about it. I ain’t your guy.

                Studies have shown that pigs are more intelligent than dogs. By your logic, eating pigs is more cruel than eating dogs.

                I am not now, and never will be a vegan.

                Alright, I never asked you to become vegan. I just pointed out your code of ethics, when it comes to what animals do and don’t deserve empathy, is cruel and irrational. What you do with that information is up to you.

                  And there it is. The gotcha.

                  I just pointed out your code of ethics

                  I’ll make sure not to eat peppa pig if I ever run across her.

                  My whole point in the first damn place was that making a comic with humanized pigs doesn’t make me feel anymore empathy than I already do. It doesn’t change my stance. It’s all propaganda.

                  They eat and shit in the same place. Idk what their measure for intelligence is, but most smart mammals don’t shit where they eat.

      In my experience, no one lectures you more than a meat eater when you tell them you don’t eat meat. Like bruh you could have just dropped it and moved on, now it’s been an hour of you telling me about how bacon and ground beef are like 90% of your personality and you’d die without them, and don’t you know humans are predators who evolved to eat meat?

        This is true in my experience. I have a medical issue that makes it difficult to eat most meats and no matter now many “I can’t” and “it was literally killing me” I say they still come back with "well I would anyway. Cool, you do you but I’m not gunna die because a bacon triple cheeseburger sounds tasty.

        I feel like I should also mention that if you’re single it’s also an issue, why people feel the need to put it in the profile of a dating app that’s let’s be honest a hookup app is beyond me.

        Yeah i also hate people who wear it as a personality. Its fucking disgusting to go to a vegan and describe with disgusting detail how processed meat is made and then tell them that you eat it all day(actually happened to one of my friends) and to circle back to my comment, meat eating: 👍 meat eaters: 👎

          It’s not us vs them or me vs you. There are no “teams”. We’re all just people sharing our experiences. I’m not accusing you of anything.

      if you know this is true for 90% of communities, then whats the point of saying it other than flaming people you disagree with for no reason
