veganism is inherently morally superior because killing animals is wrong
lord farquad’s ex wife ✨@cachavaa
veganism is not inherently a morally superior position. the vegetables and fruits you consume are also harvested via immense cruelty & exploitation, not to even mention indigenous practices or food deserts. if you care about animals, the position to take is anti-capitalism.

@Aprilfzws Why do yall perform mental gymnastics around this? bro you’re eating an animal that was murdered and force bred 😭😭
And I’m eating it to. We can’t call that “love” maybe you think it’s cute but you don’t “love” it .
It’s like infatuation at the point

I don’t think she’s wrong and I’m a person who eats meat.
Love is a strong word, but I do think it’d be more fair to say “you can’t claim to love ALL animals”.
Like ok I love cows but do I love them enough to not eat them? Probably not.
I don’t think that’s crazy to say.

Billie Eilish says eating meat is WRONG and people can’t claim to love animals if they eat meat 😳👀

@poco7o That is the most city person bullshit I’ve ever heard. People who raise cows from birth, love them, and feed them and care for them and then eat them don’t love the animals less. I would say they love them more than a random person buying meat at the grocery store.

@Aprilfzws i don’t give a fuck about indigenous people or their culture like.. if they kill animals they do not love their animals. let me kll you and then go on twitter and tweet that i loved you.

i don’t like billies woke ass. but she’s right. you cannot kill animals and think you love animals. you just can’t. when third world countries eat dogs and cats you get sad/mad but when you’re eating chickens and cows it’s not a problem?

@larpingtons Indigenous cultures all around the world consume meat, and I would say they love and respect animals more than anyone. As do many farmers and people who live in rural areas. It’s always come off to me as a very city-person thing to say to say something like that
English
@Aprilfzws im not talking about the dog and cat thing anymore. just because you realize you would slaughter a cat and dog aswell doesn’t mean it’s right. you cannot love animals and kill animals. point blank

@larpingtons Those are the feelings that I recognize, and actively say “is that based in reality or is that a personal bias?”, and then I go from there. Personal preference in individuals eating habits and feelings around certain food seems fine to me, I don’t see the issue here
English
@larpingtons I logically can recognize that there is no difference in the morality between eating cats and dogs versus eating cows and pigs. I don’t base my morality and belief system around those instictual feelings that I know are remnants of just existing in our society.

@CringePosted @ZombieBlaster9 @HollowPoint_USA @Jheauxx -very sympathetic to your cause, and would be more than willing to help you in the fight. That is if you’re willing to accept help from those people.

@CringePosted @ZombieBlaster9 @HollowPoint_USA @Jheauxx -, they won it, and most of the societal understanding shifted after that. People saw that the world didn’t end when gay people got equal rights to marriage. I’m just saying, I think you’re severely underestimating the amount of non-vegans and avid meat eaters who are -

Eating meat is wrong and I've never really heard a single strong enough answer to justify it.
I eat meat and I know it's wrong. Meat eaters aren't winning this argument literally ever.

@CringePosted @ZombieBlaster9 @HollowPoint_USA @Jheauxx I think if you’re gonna wait around for everyone to get on board with you on that part, you’re just blocking yourself from getting where you want to be. Sometimes you have to trust that that will come later and in much more complex ways. It’s not some binary switch.
English
@CringePosted @ZombieBlaster9 @HollowPoint_USA @Jheauxx An ultimately to me, it doesn’t really matter in terms of the goals here because what matters more I feel like is outcomes. Measurable outcomes and changes, not abstract societal ideas and mores shifting. Like I said, I think that will come in time.
