    I can tell you are coming across some of these ideas for the first time, and you are having the exact same knee-jerk reactions that everyone does. You just filled at LEAST three separate tiles on a vegan bingo card.

    You’re going to pull the “I’m too poor to not murder” shit with me? I live on 14k CAD a year. If I can do it, you can fucking do it. In reality, plant food is the cheapest food you can get.

    Ohhhhhh, suddenly, despite having the flesh of vulnerable individuals still stuck in your teeth, you care SOOO MUCH about the poor mousies and butterflies. But that’s not what I said, is it? Those animals are not being exploited.

    Of course I want to minimize the absolute harm I do, but that is a different subject. If you stopped and actually thought about it for a second, you would realize that the way to do that is to eat plants, because if you eat meat, an order of magnitude more plants have to be grown to feed those animals, and so you end up mulching up more mousies. So it’s an ignorant argument. You’ve literally never had a serious thought about these subjects in your life.

    Spare me your thought-terminating cliches. If you are not emotionally prepared to process these ideas, go cope somewhere else.

      What an unrelatable privilege-assed human. People live in food deserts all over America, as only one example. You can pretend they don’t all you want, but all you’ll do is give people the impression that vegans are out of touch assholes. For the record, and to reiterate, I support veganism. Just not people like you who lie and dodge truth because you need to feel superior. You’re absolutely working against what you claim to advocate for.

      PS; username checks all the way out.
