Rice and beans is for those poor people 😭 Missing the essential nutrient of “living things suffering” that I need to live. I mean how else do you explain to things that don’t speak that you’re better than them in every way? Rice and beans only feeds the weak ass flesh water balloon you control, killing feeds the ego.

I’d rather switch to eating Dung Beetles because I can’t dominate beans. The rice has no fog of war or technology tree. I don’t understand how people eat without just killing absolutely everything in their path. I personally stopped buying beef from the grocery stores and just started going out into the fields at night to drain blood out of cattle’s neck. I also really enjoy eating live squirrels and rats I find while navigating the city via sewers in order to avoid my vampiric form from being seen by those poor poor human people.

      Do you think that all the animal feed needed to keep your meat and dairy prices affordable is somehow harvested and processed with only the most ethical paid labor or do you only care about that when it's a gotcha to vegans

      I'm not a vegan but trying to compare exploited labor and killing animals is not the best argument

      Also kind of an L you fell for an obvious bait bit

      Not eating meat as an individual is way easier to do than not having to participate in the market as an individual.

      Even accepting the premise of the argument Veganism still wins as abattoirs have uniquely fucked working conditions.

      You aren't going to get PTSD from picking fruit.

            i've gone hunting for years and never gotten ptsd from that so like skill issue tbh

            but fr tho the modern industry for meat is probably the most horrific its ever been. Vegan or no it obviously needs huge reform. The funny thing is, the meat industry has (according to several books and studies) completely taken the taste out of meat. meat is bland because of factory farming, but organic farms are far far more satisfactory. But we'll never change to it under capitalism because its 'not cost effective'.

            the meat industry ruined meat, ironically enough
