      We get it, you’re vegan. We can tell by the smugness and the pretentious virtue signaling.

          Breaking news: hunger is solved by people furiously typing at their keyboards.

          You’re right, tho. But what are we gonna do about the smugness?

                  Being smug doesn’t sting. Pay attention to what I’m criticizing, please.

                  I know you have your talking points and want to get to them but we’re talking about something else here. I have nothing against veganism but I do have plenty to say about the stupid fan club.

        We get it, you copied some Reddit comment a long time ago and that’s your default retort.

          Maybe I copy-pasted it from the deepest entrails of my brain. Who knows? Even I can’t tell ya.
          But I did think of it, reworded it, and then edited it, so…

          Can’t say I like it having never done it. I gather you don’t recommend it?

            Eating the flesh and secretions against the consent of the animals is enjoying torture.

              Is it now? Aren’t they dead by then?

              I’m just saying, accusing people of enjoying torture is exactly the smug attitude I’m criticizing. You can take your better-than-thou attitude and shove it.

              Are they not vegan? But if it talks and walks like one…

              Also, holy shit the Avengers assembled.

        No, I think only stupid people could possibly slurp down breast milk meant for babies of a completely different species.

          What a bizarre superiority complex to have just because you don’t like animal cruelty.

          I don’t like animal cruelty either, but I know enough about history to know that massive civilizations were built by people who used dairy products.

          But hey, let’s extend this to other groups. Like all the indigenous tribes in the world that hunt for their food.

          Or how about the Maasai? They literally cut their cows and drink their blood. Those stupid backward black people, am I right?

          You’re definitely superior to any of those savages from the dark continent.

            Oh yeah we should totally use history as our reference point for the majority of us on Lemmy living in the modern world where it’s super unnecessary to continue abusing animals, that totally makes sense.

              Your words:

              No, I think only stupid people could possibly slurp down breast milk meant for babies of a completely different species.

              You did not specify ‘the majority of us on Lemmy living in the modern world.’ You said people.

              So either all of those indigenous people are stupid or you said something very silly. You decide which.

          the only thing dairy milk is “meant” for is “whatever the farmer wants”. it could meant to drink or sell or give to the calves.
