  What? That’s what you took from vegans saying “stop killing others unnecessarily”?

  Carnists are literally putting out an idea that values someones sensory pleasure over the lives of others and then acting accordingly and killing by the billions each year.

    The word you’re looking for is omnivore, not carnist.

    How many house plants have you killed not for the purpose of your own survival?

      Carnist, omnivore, speciesist. If the shoe fits 🤷

      To the best of my knowledge plants are not sentient. If they were I would take much better care of houseplants and still be vegan because eating other animals still kills way more plants (google trophic levels)

        Disingenuous, ignorant, mentally deficient from years of choline deficiency. You’re right. If the shoe fits.

        Eating keeps things alive, only a vegan would think taking something out of its natural environment and subjecting it to worse living conditions and a shortened lifespan without the purpose of benefitting another lifeforms ability to survive as being less harmful.

        We kill for survival, you kill for pleasure and ego.

        plants are not sentient

        this cannot be proven, but even if it’s true, it doesn’t matter. sentience is an arbitrary charcteristic on which to base your diet.
