*please note i deeply value and respect the vegan movement. i am just critical of how humorously it precipitates in online spaces, particularly this one. :)

I'm like fuckit, if it'll just as soon either eat me or trample me to death, it's food to me. Yes, that includes beef, shark, alligator...
I'm a proud omnivore, I like my veggies too.
Cows are so gentle, they're like big dogs. The only way you'd get trampled by them is if they were running away from something that scared them and then you decided to jump in front of them.
Go ahead hunt yourself a shark, use your own hands to kill your meat instead of buying from the mass production slaughter machine of convenience.
Honestly, no, I've never hunted/fished for shark. I'm smart enough to stay out of their environment, and they're smart enough to stay out of mine.
But I have hunted rabbit, and had it completely skinned and gutted before the muscles stopped twitching.
Okay, but why the poor bunny? Well, these are wild rabbits, not pet bunnies. They reproduce like crazy, and they eat your crops. So, it's basically a pest.
AKA dinner.
Ok now do that for all meat you consume.
You first.
Grow and harvest all your own food.
Right cause we lock up all crops into undersized jail cells, deprive them of sun and provide them with the worst quality feed imaginable.
It’s actually possible to grow things humanely, not so with any meat in a grocery store.
Your own grown tomatoes are next lvl. Especially sun dried.
So that's a no. Why do vegans be like that?
You ever been kicked by a horse? I have, twice. Maybe I should have gotten my revenge on those horses, but damn do you know how many people it takes to eat even one horse?
Hell, hunters have their freezers packed full, and often with extra to spare. Good luck convincing your neighbor to eat a burger when they happen to notice your horse Sissy is missing...
So now you want to revenge kill your horse because you were stupid enough to get kicked by it?
What the fuck are you on?
Also Sissy for a hose? That’s clearly a cows name.
It was a sarcastic hypothetical.
No of course I would have never killed the horse, lightning did that for us. No joke there. ⚡☠️☹️
Edit: I was only 7 years old, so there was nothing I could do but watch my parents drag the lightning struck horse to 'bone hill' with a tractor.
What a waste though?! Fresh meat, just happened to die by lightning. That horse could have fed 20 families, instead of rotting on bone hill...
They took a horse carcass to a make-out spot?
I guess it would be a pretty effective way to scare off horny teens? 🤷
