PLANTS HAVE FEELINGS TOO
is #22 on the Vegan Bullshit Bingo:

No, they do not. There is no serious study to suggest that they do. Plants do not have a brain or central nervous system. At most, they respond to stimuli. If you really care that much about the welfare of plants, you should go vegan, since many more plants "die" for animal feeding. Do you feel bad while mowing your lawn? And would you rather rescue a potted plant than a dog from a burning house? Is docking pig tails the same as branch trimming to you? Question upon question...

The comment you responded to says nothing about feelings. Nor does it say that the commenter has any issue with the consumption of plants.

the point is that they don't care about the welfare of plants and you don't either. tehy also eat animals. i think you can put it together.
