    I support vegans environmentally just on principle, but it’s just way too much effort to examine everything that I eat for whatever animal products. I greatly reduce my meat consumption though, especially red meat. I’m just to fucking tired and depressed to put forth the energy necessary to be strictly vegan or even vegetarian.

        Wow another left wing group whose sole intent is to faction off into smaller sub groups and make them as toxic and hostile as possible to others. Seems like whatever it is that’s trying to bring down society has set its sights on these communities. I think a lot of people believed it was only the right how ate this stuff up. Shit is spreading faster and faster.

        Same stuff happened with the right prior to the last election. People would ignore these thinking it was silly foolishness and next thing you know these groups grew to something else . People who get into these groups always have more free time and less common sense then the rest and end up becoming the dominate voice across many platforms.

          Don’t forget skin, connective tissue, and bones of animals. Each of these is obtained from slaughterhouses, boiled and broken down in vats of acid before being flavored, colored, and packaged into your favorite sweet.

          Luckily for the subscribers of this community, vegan gummies aren’t hard to find nowadays.

            Isn’t most of veganism based on consent?

            Bees are the epitome of consent. If the hive didn’t want to be in that beehouse they would leave.

              TIL domestic abuse is consentual. After all if the abused party didn’t want to stay they could just leave.

              See the problem. If you put an equally good hive nearby and didn’t take the honey from it the bees would probably stay there.

              Also honey farms are hotbeds of disease and we don’t have little bee vets. We plug the hive with petroleum soaked rags and burn them alive. Cool and good.

              Honey bee farming also displaces native pollinators leading to starvation and death.

              The queen is too large to fit through the screens keeping her in and the hive is pretty doomed without her.

          Factually you don’t, and people have tried being nice to carnist for… oh I don’t know 3 thousand years?

          If you’re stupid enough that you’ll only consider doing the right thing if people act sycophantic then I’m going to mock you for it. You absolute dreg, you moron, you shiver looking for a spine to crawl up.

          Unless you’re just a vegan trying to be nice in which case I respectfully disagree in circlejerk coms as above. You wonderful, shining, humble paragon of virtue and peace.

            I’m a shitty awful animal-abusing carnist, but that last line goes pretty hard. Did you come up with it, or is it from something?

    I’m not vegan but I eat veg/vegan unless someone else cooks because even this is too much work for me. Plus uncooked meat is gross and I can’t bring myself to eat the fat that everyone else seems to love.
