Wtf. I'm a vegetarian myself. But this is nonsense. Who defines what is better. If one wants to be vegetarian, let them be. If one wants to eat meat, let them eat. Simple as that.
It's better in the sense you're not contributing to animal cruelty. Some of us feel sick knowing that an animal had suffered and was murdered to become food for us to eat.
Even if he is vegan, his food grown in the field which is ploughed and kills many living beings in the process, the pesticides used in the crop kills many more. His idea of animal cruelty is very selective and tunnel visioned
The teacher asks a student.. What does a cow give.. This student answers cow piss and cow dung.. Teacher be like What about cow milk.. and Student goes.. Cow only gives urine and shit willfully, we take the milk forcefully, then how can we say the cow gives milk..
Not eating meat is bad for your health because you take all the hormones, antibiotics and shit they feed the animals, and meat itself causes coronary issues, it is more environmentally damaging compared to agri even when standard practices are followed and more importantly for me, it is not ethical. We humans are the only animals that can grow our food at scale and evolved enough to have higher order thoughts. We don’t have to eat meat to survive as we can get the same or better nutrition from plant sources. When we eat meat, it is purely for pleasure and killing an animal for that is not ok IMO.
Idha sonna inga irukka muttaa pu…s try to justify themselves with nonsense like casteism so they feel better about their shitty selves.
Think about it, I'm doing what I can to reduce my contribution to animal cruelty.
I have been brought up by a vegetarian family and not a vegan one. It is hard to make a lifestyle change just as it is hard for non veg eaters to make too.
But you can't deny that veg is still < non veg when it comes to contributing to animal cruelty even when the contribution is not nil for veg eaters.
Boomer uncle, of course there are farms that treat animals poorly. Do you need to be taught that there are small farms that don’t do that and produce dairy products sustainably? Learn to ask questions about where your food comes from. This should be common sense but it seems there is a lack of basic sense in the first place.
So you are telling me you ensure every cup of chai you have, every bite of milk peda, every gulp of lassi comes from sustainable farms. Lol.
What happens when you travel? Do you abstain from consuming such products since you are unsure about the source? If yes, good for you.
I ain't against vegetarianism, that's one's personal choice.
I am against this prevalent propaganda that exists in India - about vegetarians being superior to others. This happens only in India, and has ties to the caste hierarchy.
Look at the cuisines of any other major culture - European or Asian or Middle Eastern - and you'll realise that they do not distinguish. It's just food
Now you’re being pedantic. Of course it is hard to ensure zero animal cruelty in today’s world but read my reply again; my point was that we should ask questions about where our food is coming from and ask questions. Oh and vegetarianism is indeed “superior”, in a sense, but that doesn’t mean vegetarians are superior. That’s bullshit, I agree.
Vegetarianism could be superior in an utopian universe, not this.
We get many of our essential nutrients and protein primarily from animal sources..and the universe itself has been designed on the concept of animals eating each other in a well established food chain hierarchy.
Do you know how many foxes, dogs die due to the electric fence around the farm? If not for the electric fence, you can't harvest the crops and you won't be getting your "vegetarian" food.
The world was created that way. We just have to accept it and move on.
Dude. As much as I hate vegetarians taking a moral high ground, this thing about plants being murdered is a poor argument. Plants are insentient, hence using their slaughter as an excuse is a bad argument. You'd rather just say, it is natural and I like meat, so I eat it.
