Nonvegan = animal abuser
Free Palestine
 
 
Veganism is the radical notion that it's wrong to torture and kill others for fun.

And while we're at it, why don't suffragists and abolitionists get off their high horses too?
Every anti-vegan argument ever made
"BuT LiOns ThO" aka "it's natural, it's circle of life, food chain, animals eat other animals, humans are omnivores, etc."

Is-ought gap. It has been understood for a few centuries. Might wanna look into it.

"it's PeRsONAL cHOice" aka "don't force your morals on me"

Being a pdf file is a personal choice, don't force your morals on me! Also, maybe don't make normative claims that are self-undermining, could help your case. (And before you respond the way I know you're going to, maybe learn what a counter-example is)

"Plants are alive too!"
And yet no brain, just like you

"CrOp dEAThs tHo"
Good thing the 100 billion farm animals killed and tortured every year eat only air, that way we can avoid crop deaths by eating them.

"BUT MUH PROTEIN"
Where do you think the animals you eat get their protein from? There is, in fact, protein in plants. It's also just as good for muscle synthesis. And eating only plants lowers your risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes - the three biggest killers of humans. So don't pretend there are nutritional reasons to eat meat. You're doing it for pleasure, that's it.

If any of these obnoxiously brain-dead arguments even crossed your mind, then there isn't even a scintilla of grey matter left in your head.

i just spent 3 hours trying to explain to this idiot why

'science can't explain X, therefore god did X' isn't a good argument
i think i tried like 300 different approaches to get him to understand

one method i tried was to ask him if "a magical unicorn did it" was a good explanation for antimatter asymmetry and he copy pasted an article of 'appeal to ridicule fallacy' as a response

why do i even try to be patient with these people

"X is shown to be the case by overwhelming amounts of evidence, so I'm going to believe ~X"

"Even though X is overdetermined, it isn't logically necessary, so I'm going to believe ~X"

"X is shown to be the case through human reasoning and perception, the only things we can base our beliefs on, so I'm going to believe ~X"

Not sure what on earth is going on here, but if you believe plants are sentient, you should go vegan so you kill less plants.

i think they are. just because we perceive what sentience is through a very human based lens doesnt mean their are not other means of which something can achieve sentience

plants are not sentient, that's all that needs to be said.

you say plants cant feel pain and have no brain but when cut plants produce defense signals and emit electrical signals and even produce ultra sonic sounds when stressed and can sense temp. just because something does feel pain that isnt identifiable to you or through means that arent normal to you doesnt mean that they arent feeling pain in reality. and we need proteins from meat mostly because its so high in it and not every single plant has protein in it so getting a large guaranteed source of protein from animals makes more sense in nature and for large scale human populations.
