They have a fascist government again, so I'd say it's a little too late for that..

In this case I was talking about the OP tweet exchange, in which a guy replies specifically to peta

And in my other comments I wasn't referring to vegans in general either, only the preachy and overdefensive ones. All the vegans I know IRL are good people who aren't constantly preachy and defensive.

I mean, you're a man wearing a polar bear head so..yes?

Also a great argument for the fact that caging humans doesn't change anything in a positive direction. Especially when you enslave them too like in countries with barbaric penal systems such as the US.

Peta do. They operate a shitload of shelters, none of which are no-kill.

True, I'm not.

There's absolutely no way, based on everything you've already said, that reading that novel will be worth the time and effort. Go take a nap or something.

Yeah, literally. I'm getting a stress headache from all the nonsense.

Hey guess what?

  1. it apparently means both and we arrived at demonstrating that via the same method, automatic translation

  2. I don't care if you're the king of Spain or the president of Mexico, doesn't change the language

  3. lastly and most importantly, I was referencing a popular meme in a glib manner. That's what you're so overzealous about "correcting".

Dude made a joke at preachy hypocrites who kill a shitload of dogs. Lighten up and save your strawmen for another time.

"it's about right and wrong, animals being made to suffer" is in absolutely no way preaching? Get the fuck out of here with that nonsense ๐Ÿคฃ

Fun fact: like most people, I'm pretty damn ridiculous at times. This means that I sometimes am the object of criticism and/or ridicule. You and I have that in common.

Here's the difference, though: I don't go out of my way to play the persecuted martyr.

Not eating meat is a perfectly reasonable personal decision. Not using any animal products of any kind sounds difficult to the point of constant exhaustion to me personally, but if that's what makes you happy, then that's good.

Just like the bad kind of religious person though, you're preaching that everyone who doesn't make the same choice is wrong and should be ashamed of themselves. While simultaneously acting like everyone's out to get you no matter what you say and do. That's not not reasonable.
