Maybe don’t order carnist options though

Why not let people excercise their liberty to decide for themselves. Plus how is this relevent to a date a majority of people are omnivorous anyways

Was their comment one of those β€˜self-identifying without being asked’ moments? Certainly feels stereotypical to me. But, it couldn’t be that obvious.

It is. Some stereotypes exist for a reason, they’re earned.

I prefer Arch Linux over the Golden Arches. It’s much better for your health.

I want to say β€˜exactly’, if I’m reading your comment right. The β€˜carnist’ commenter could have ripped on McDonalds, or chicken nuggets in general, which both would have been super easy and everyone would have agreed with, and not made it weird by specifically falling into the stereotype here.

Its not the liberty of the animals to be exploited and murdered.

The animals have no rights and no liberty. Plus if it wasnt for us farming them then their evolutionary niche wouldnt exist so if u think about it we are doing them the favour.

The animals have no rights and no liberty.

Why?

Evolutionary niche

On the one hand, the breeding of animals dependent on humans destroys evolutionary niches for animals independent from humans, on the other hand, humans destroy evolutionary niches directly.

Farmers won’t release or breed animals to improve their evolutionary niche, because farmers and consumers don’t farm animals for conservatory reasons.

That’s not entirely true because there are expectations depending on the jurisdiction on the standard of care for animals, in several countries they’re legally seen as sentient beings not property.

Putting them in filthy crowded slaughter houses where they’re kicked and shoved only to be slaughtered as children relative to their life spans is not doing them favour. It is our responsibility to stop exploiting them.

I suggest you keep it to yourself next time, then, as you have only furthered the image that vegans are smug asshats who can’t shut the fuck up about being vegan.

Maybe that’s what you want though, it’s just a suggestion. c:
