I got invited to go fishing with some coworkers and had to say no. It's kind of a shame since I don't have any friends and it was a chance to do something social, plus the area they wanted to go is chill and out in the woods. But I've never been comfortable with fishing. It's a big part of where I grew up. Lots of people don't even eat the fish. They toss the poor things back in the water.

Maybe I could still go but just hang out on the shore.

      Like I said, I killed them to eat when I was younger. I lived on a boat, that was how we ate.

      You have no idea what you're talking about so don't insult me and tell me how I feel.

          Vegans and not respecting non-traditional lifestyles name a more iconic duo.

          I like veganism and the moral philosophy around it and am actively adding the concepts/actions to my life, but holy shit some vegans really piss me off.

        Your feelings do not matter, you are killing animals for fun.

        Do you currently live stranded on a boat?

        You do not love fish, you love killing and eating fish. Very distinct.

      Furthermore I spent most of my life as a young adult attempting to get a degree in marine biology in an effort to help life in the ocean.

      That didn't work out because of money, but honestly go fuck yourself when you tell me what I care about.

        Why would it matter how you spent your time learning?

        You kill animals for fun. Clearly your education had no impact on your capacity to do animal abuse.

            When you can't defend your own behavior, so you start hiding behind indigenous people. (Who actually are justified in hunting to survive.)

            You don't live on a boat now, you still fish for fun, but when someone points out that killing wild animals is mutually exclusive with loving them, you lose your shit.

            Consider this convo disengaged. Have a nice day :vegan-liberation-rad:

              This fucking whole community is full of you parasites. Pretending like you have any semblance of radical in you yet not even attempting to fucking understand people who aren't as well off.

              Good fucking luck with your "leftism" you fucking hypocrite.

              IMPOVERISHED! Do you know what that means???

              Of course not, you're some shitty fucking kid with no life experience judging people who have lived differently than you. Congrats on the money you got from your family and the ability to choose your diet growing up.

              I didn't fucking have that you absolute nerd.

              I don't even fucking fish anymore. what the fuck even is this comment. just so much judgement and assumptions about me. This is some of the most toxic shit I've seen on a forum in general, much less here.
