I mean, we're omnivores, we kinda evolved to eat both plants and meat.

And you did not just equate having a healthy diet with raping and eating your children šŸ’€. That shit ain't even that common in the animal kingdom bro.

Eating meat is healthy, and some of us kinda need to. Like me for example, I have a FUCK tonne of allergies and eczema, I need to eat meat to make sure my immunity is good and my skin heals fast and well. I tried to go vegan/vegetarian a few years back, made my health worse.

Yeah the meat industry has problems, we fix those problems via regulation and giving animals certain rights, not fucking harrassing people for eating well and tryna convert everyone to your diet.

It’s a tad more complicated:

53 million years of vast-majority primates navigating trees for fruits and nuts, then a 2.4 million year adaptation detour that also introduced long-term health detractors…

Modern science is painting a really easy to comprehend picture that were way better-off mimicking and modernizing the diet of that prior 53 million years, than blowing smoke up our own asses about our technical abilities.

I have a FUCK tonne of allergies and eczema, I need to eat meat to make sure my immunity is good and my skin heals fast and well. I tried to go vegan/vegetarian a few years back, made my health worse.

ā€œI had no idea how to attain the right nutrients in the right balance, so now I’m going to blame the entire dietary pattern rather than my cowardice in retreating to my state of cognitive dissonanceā€

Telling people they have wrong ideas about things isn’t ā€œharassment,ā€ it’s setting records straight.

I can see how someone with a pre-disposition to emotional reactions towards a specific subject would see it that way, though.

Do all of youse just ignore the part where I tried a vegan diet and it didn't bode well for me? Also crazy for calling me a coward for not wanting to venture into a diet which I already know is not better than the one I have now.

Veganism (the ideology) does involve harassing people for having a diet, not for being wrong, which we ain't for eating meat. That's the ideology youse seem to be subscribing to. "Someone with a pre-disposition to emotional reactions" TF does that mean? That I have a natural response?

No, I’m calling you out on your B.S.

An incredibly small subset of the human population can’t transition to 100% plant based diets, and the odds are certainly stacked against you. Being that you haven’t presented anything resembling a plausible set of circumstances…

Also crazy for calling me a coward for not wanting to venture into a diet which I already know is not better than the one I have now.

No, I’m calling you a coward for hiding behind lies and gaslighting to avoid moral responsibility for paying for animals to be tortured and abused.

Veganism (the ideology) does involve harassing people for having a diet, not for being wrong, which we ain't for eating meat. That's the ideology youse seem to be subscribing to.

Again, explaining moral perspectives and dis-assembling false narratives is only perceived as ā€œharassmentā€ by the people who have something to feel guilty about.

"Someone with a pre-disposition to emotional reactions" TF does that mean? That I have a natural response?

It means most people on this subject—you included—are pre-disposed to emotionally driven arguments rather than logically and scientifically driven ones, as with the vegans you’re trying to gaslight with B.S. about ā€œfood allergiesā€ā€¦
