So it's okay to cause pain to plants, because they don't react to the stimuli the same way as animals? That's what your link claims. Sounds like y'all are on a foundation of salt and sand. Plants are sentient, just not sapient.
Kicking a tree is the same as kicking a horse got it.
no one said that
They dont have a nervous system you dumb fuck and even if they feel pain
Neat, so even if I'm right- you wanna call names. I disagree that it makes a pro-vegan argument, it just makes vegans look equally as cruel, and intellectually dishonest on top of it.
nah dude you started with the names and rudeness I just responded in kind, dont act all high and mighty now. And if you actually believed that killing a newborn is the same as picking a salad you would do your utmost to make sure your consumption minimizes plant death which again would mean a vegan diet since meat "production" requires a multiple of plant by mass, not to mention how many many many more plants have to "die" by the numbers to feed one animal before you murder it.
Where did I call you a name? Man, you're now arguing against things I never said. Not beating the allegations of vegans being preachy, holier-than-thou ideologues.
Youve been calling it "moral grandstanding", "self-serving ideologues" basically at every turn youve been condescending and snide, so don't act all shocked when some of it is returned.
I'm not acting surprised- I know how you people are. I never once called you a name. If you felt insulted by what I said, maybe it's time to take a look inward. Sorry you felt called out.
You called out vegans, I am vegan, I felt called out π€£ Introspection over
I called out the MAJORITY of vegans. If you happen to fall in to the group of losers that use it as a way to feel special, that isn't my fault. You just happen to be in a group of people that like to feel morally superior to others.
You're right! So let's see what I said:
Damn, you're dumb.
Says the one who claimed plants feel PAIN!
Who are you trying to fool??
Edit: why am I still arguing with some guy who claims he believes picking a salad and killing a newborn are the same thing and then goes and calls others hypocrites.
I'm not trying to fool anyone- you're just mad that you fall in with the people that want to be better than everyone else, but fail at every turn.
That edit is funny- considering you set out to prove that vegans aren't sanctimonious, self-serving losers, and all you've done is preach and try to show how elevated your ideology is.
No, I've set out to prove that omnis have nothing but some stupid hypotheticals ("what if plants are sentient??") and ad hominems and I think I've shown this in your case quite thoroughly. Additionally the reddit thing of you constantly reinterpreting of what you said is just a bonus.
Well you failed there, too.
Weird how you've convinced yourself of something that did not happen.
