Look at them stupid vegans, trying to not harm animals and our planet π
Tap for spoiler
/s
Iβm not vegan, but vegans are right, even if you find them annoying. The meat and & dairy industry is causing unimaginable suffering to millions of animals every day, while wasting the limited resources of our planet. The world would be a much better place if we consumed less or no animal products.
I've been vegan for 9 years lol
I should really read post titles
I am convinced that vegans today will be like we look at abolitionists like Alexander Hamilton back during the 18th century. People will be horrified that we treated animals so abysmally for convenience, and some will say it was a normal and accepted practice, and people didn't realize how horrible it was, and others will point to the vegans of today.
Thoughts like those make me a little more understanding of people like George Washington. He recognized it was bad, tried to mitigate it, but still perpetuated the practice. Just like I switched to Impossible Beef and chicken, do my best to buy local family eggs, but buy cheese and milk and ice cream from big name companies like Tillamook and Ben & Jerry's.
Yes, I also think we will look back on meat eating in 50-100 years like we look back at slavery now
vegans today will be like we look at abolitionists like Alexander Hamilton back during the 18th century
Alexander Hamilton very deliberately and strategically married into a family of wealthy New York slave owners, then proceeded to cut deals with Virginia slave owners in order to enrich his northern friends through a publicly chartered bank that profited off of increased slave traffic and slave territory expansion.
To call Alexander Hamilton an abolitionist is about as rational as calling Donald Trump a feminist.
Also factory farming is responsible for i think 10% of the total greenhouse gas emissions yearly
Vegans continue to exist, to eat delicious food, and to mention their diet to other people.
I find this unforgivable.
We should do one for regular diets where it goes from ignorantly contributing to animal suffering to torturing them yourself, then dying of diabetes and colon cancer.
No no, that would hurt the feelings of the man-children that get triggered by vegans existing. They're too sensitive, they can't take it, it would be an act of cruelty towards animals that have no personal agency, which we all know is something vegans can't condone.
How dare some people make an obviously correct moral decision that highlights my own inadequacies?
Seriously though, Iβm not even slightly vegan. Iβm just also not a total fucking moron.
Same boat. I'm not vegan, and I'll probably never be. I could genuinely see myself going lacto ovo, but honestly, that wouldn't be so hard for me if I only cook for myself. But, like, it is clearly the correct moral decision, and anyone arguing that is either misinformed or lying to themselves
level 11: wipes out all animal life to protect animals from ever doing harm to other animals
Vegan antinatalist utilitarianism ftw
At what level do they talk incessantly about their veganism?
βIβm going to buy vegan ice creamβ
βWe get it, youβre veganβ
β-
βIβm going to buy ice creamβ
βI thought you were vegan?β
Level 0
Zero?
Yeah, that's the level when you keep telling people "I'm really thinking about going vegan. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna do it"
Lvl 1* - No animal products in diet or clothing
*Honorable mention; not true veganism
Huh?
If you're not talking nicely to the plants, you're not a vegan in spirit.
No, no, you must kiss every plant before eating it.
vegan btw
I kiss it while I'm eating it, does that count?
Lol I forgot I made my comment and was real confused at first why I received this message in my inbox.
This is actually the case, according to some vegan YouTuber. From what I understand (and according to these people) veganism is about harm reduction, so they shouldn't consume anything produced by exploitation or animal (including human) suffering.
Not consuming animal product should be technically "plant-based" or "vegan diet".
I do applaud their effort, and feel they are certainly stepping towards the right direction, but it would probably take a long time for society to accept this definition.
On the other hand, I feel it is fine to have different definitions for the same word. I think even among the vegan community, there must be many definitions of "animal suffering". I feel it is okay as long as we are doing the best we can do.
Yeah, I applaud the effort of people trying to improve themselves, but saying something you don't approve of doesn't count as vegan just sounds like gatekeeping.
Yo, totally incorrect.
Level 5 vegans dont eat anything that casts a shadow.
What a great episode
Ever since HowToBasic's vegan recipes taught me how to cook good vegan meals, I've slowly been leveling up on this chart. My aim is to reach level 5 this year.
HowToBasic videos that don't feature eggs? That sounds weird.
Here's a really good vegan lasagna recipe I followed as an example, hope you like it :)
That... Actually looks delicious. I'm going to give it a try.
you could throw whole lettuce violently for same affect
And I bet at none of these levels is it wrong to kill mosquitos.
Thereβs an argument that itβs βveganβ to eat lionfish if one lives in say, Florida, because theyβre an invasive species extremely disruptive to the environment. Killing them is a good thing and the fact that most things on US coasts wonβt eat them is part of why we have the problem anyway.
Even if you go full negative utilitarian to the point where you are concerned with wild animal suffering, killing lionfish is good.
veganism, as defined by the vegan society, which was founded by the folks who invented the term.... opposes exploitation and cruelty. if you can find a way to kill em without being cruel, I think you are good.
Being near-instantly crushed is one of the least cruel deaths i could imagine. Close to being instantly vaporized
Writing this comment as a reminder to myself that the humanest possible execution method for billionaires is βP incidents. We should really resume loading them onto improvised submarines.
Executing billionares is vegan friendly, too
Veganism? Fantastic.
Vegans? Mostly assholes.
Downvote if you agree.
When I was vegan, a lot of people seemed personally offended by my choices. I know there are preachy vegans, but if you really want to be preached at, youβll get it by being vegan at any kind of food gathering.
That's also true for being vegetarian. It's bonkers. But vegetarians don't lecture other vegetarians like vegans do.
Upvote for disagree
TIL veganism is Jainism.
This is basically the plot of The Vegetarian by Han Kang
This reminds me of some Zizzian shit
By level 5 you gotta be immortal to pass.
